We don't have a sneeze, that's
2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,800
what I'm saying.

00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,560
Don't have a hey?
Guess what boys, let's go.
4
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:13,280
There is no intro tonight.
None whatsoever for some reason.
5
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,880
And we're live.
Yeah, but I'm going to This is
6
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:22,400
the Sports Porch, Black and Gold
with your hosts, the technical
7
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:27,760
director, the Grand Schwabini
and Hockey.
8
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:32,119
Jesus, come on, Pittsburgh.
Let's show a little.
9
00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:36,360
Steelers, Penguins and Pirates
love the sports.
10
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,240
Sports Black and Gold starts
now.
11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,120
Exactly right.
The sports ports, Black and
12
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,960
gold, it starts right now.
It is 7:00 PM, in case you
13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,160
haven't noticed, on a Monday
night.
14
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,960
And we got a little news.
We are moving back to the future
15
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,160
to 7:00 PM on Monday nights,
Right.
16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:57,960
Good move.
Yeah.
17
00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,040
Are we?
Good move that guy.
18
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:01,960
I think it's a good.
Move for all of us guys.
19
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,200
And for some reason the.
Crowd can catch up.
20
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,080
The intro video didn't load
'cause somebody removed it from
21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:08,760
the video.
No, no, I'm gonna, I'm gonna
22
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:10,520
blame hockey.
Jesus, 'cause I don't, I don't
23
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:11,920
use it in my hockey.
Jesus.
24
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:16,200
And now that we're using the
right I, I, I turn maybe if the
25
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,480
maybe, maybe if the technical
director would have looked at it
26
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:25,040
before 10 seconds prior to the
program, maybe that could have
27
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,440
been solved soon.
I was just making an assumption
28
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,160
that that an up and coming
professional down here, by the
29
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,240
way, who was hockey Jesus?
Perfectly for me.
30
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,400
Hockey Jesus right down here and
then right up here is whatever
31
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,320
his name is, the Grand
Schwabini.
32
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,200
I'm your technical director.
Yoho Son is already in the
33

Big win over the Bengals.
44
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,200
Was it really a big win over the
Bengals?
45
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,120
You mean the Browns?
Or, geez, the Browns we're.

48
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,040

00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:31,400
this week.
I don't.
52
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,280
I don't need the pressure,
that's true.
53
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,280
Did you lose your job?
Yeah, yeah, I, I was a producer
54
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,560
of another show and I.
Got Oh, OK, Well, that's what
55
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,160
happens when you don't watch.
Sports now I still do the other
56
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,840

OK, so you're, if you're

Just want to give you guys fair
59
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,920
warning.
We're we're gravitating over to
60
00:02:54,920 --> 00:02:58,600
YouTube probably primarily
sometime within the next month
61
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,440
and 1/2.
So we're going to do a bunch of
62
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,080
shows on Facebook and on X that
are still live.
63
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,360

ogsportsporch@gmail.com.
69
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,200
I know Brad Tromley for a fact
said he was going to at least
70
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,400
watch the show tonight 'cause he
he messaged me happy birthday on
71
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,040
Facebook 2 weeks ago.
I don't look at my Facebook
72
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,560
messages 'cause I just don't use
Messenger.
73
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,040
You know what?
I mean, yeah, why would you?
74
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,960
Why would I so?
So anyway, I saw it today and I
75
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,840
responded he did receive his
pack.
76
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:46,720
That's good.
We're lucky.
77
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,000
Yeah, we all knew that.
Yeah, it only took three.
78
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,640
We we checked on this there.
That's all that matters.
79
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,080
We got it there.
And I got.
80
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,200
Just like the Steelers got there
this weekend.
81
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,440
They sure did.
So I want to try something new.
82
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,920
Something a little new.
These guys have no idea what I'm
83
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:01,760
about to do here.
I hope it's.
84
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,880
Not a SpongeBob video.
It's not a SpongeBob.
85
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,720
Video A A Taylor Swift.
I I think that's one of the
86
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,000
reasons I got fired on the other
show was it was SpongeBob video.
87
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,080
That certainly contributed to
it.
88
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,720
Yeah, No, no, no, no.
If you, if you got some gear
89
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,360
from us in the last few weeks,
some of our draft gear, we do
90
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,720
have a new website,

91
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,320

would look good or funny wearing
96
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,720
it.
Not funny in a mocking way.
97
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,680
Just like, look, my grandma's

108
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,200
We go out there for a cheese
steak once a year and he gave us
109
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,520

put it on some chili my wife
110
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,840
made last night.
It elevated.

So anyway, so e-mail us a
picture of viewing your draft

gear and the best one will get
this hot sauce that.
118
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,720
I I should have one?
You want to.
119
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,320
Since I was there and I
introduced.
120
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,520
You well, the whole box is right
right outside the.
121
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,160
Door Can we get to some football
course?
122
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,640
We can.
Don't get me wrong, I love food.
123
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:01,960
This is This is.
What's called?
124
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,400
I mean, talking about swag, this
is.
125
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,280
Warming up the.
Ox, some people don't need 1.
126
00:06:06,280 --> 00:06:07,640
I feel like you're just want to
talk.
127
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,200
It's like you're having a ham
sandwich.
128
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,680
All right.
So, so that's just what I want
129
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:13,840
to do.
We're going to talk Steelers.
130
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:16,440
Of course, we're going to talk
Steelers right now because,
131
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,200
well, you know, they beat the
Browns.
132
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,400
HJ had some thoughts on this
that we want to go over.
133
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,440
Please.
I'm going to put these up here,
134
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,320
but what I want to do first is I
just want to put this graphic
135
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,440
that I pulled from an Instagram
account called Steelers Wire.
136
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,680
They have a lot of followers,
but these are the stats from the
137
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:41,360
game.
OK, so 23 to 9. 335 total yards
138
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,840
of offense to 2:48 for the
Browns.
139
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:49,120
The Browns did have one more
first down. 20 to 1965 net yards
140
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:54,080
rushing to the Steelers 100.
A 183 net yards passing to the
141
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,320
Steelers 235.
Both numbers are better than the
142
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,320
-17 that Justin Fields
accomplished yesterday.
143
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,880
Yeah, a weird number. 3rd 3rd
down efficiency.
144
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,280
Wow. 6 of 17, five of 13 for the
Steelers.
145
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,480
So I just wanted to put these up
there just so we had a sense,
146
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,400
you know, the the the Steelers
won this game.
147
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,840
I mean, it's obvious.
Yeah, they kicked some ass on
148
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,520
Sunday.
First time in a while.
149
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,200
I think you can say that.
Right.
150
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:29,560
And and it's but, but as you
said, is the win over the
151
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,760
Browns, is it big or is it just
the 22nd consecutive home
152
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:38,720
victory over Cleveland?
You know, should we be more
153
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,960
hopeful now that that they they
beat up on the Browns or should
154
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,760
it kind of be like, of course,
you know, the Browns offense is
155
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:52,280
horrible and our defense should
have beat the hell out of them
156
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,120
because Dylan Gabriel is a
rookie.
157
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,640
And they they really, I mean,
people were talking about their
158
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:01,760
running back Junkins being good,
you know, but so it's kind of
159
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,240
like it's almost we talk about a
trap game for Tomlin.
160
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,840
It's almost like a a trap recap.
Like, does this really signal
161
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,800
what we were talking about last
week?
162
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:16,800
Could they be in the AFC elite
or is it kind of like, well,
163
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,360
they proved they're the better
a, a, a better team than the
164
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,400
Browns and and probably a much
better team than the Browns
165
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,080
right right now, which I don't
think was a mystery.
166
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,320
So, but what we want to hear
your comments on that and I want
167
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,760
to hear your comments on that.
So why don't we start with you.
168
00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:36,200
This this was HJ.
This was his idea earlier today.
169
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,960
So Grand Schwabini, how?
How do you see that?
170
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,840
What is the What is the question
exactly?
171
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,680
Is it a big win over the Browns
or is it just another win?
172
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,800
Over the the ticker read the
screen right in front.
173
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,720
I think it's just another win
over the Browns.
174
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:57,720
I mean, to, to be honest, I, I
don't even, look, this game was
175
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,840
never in jeopardy, nor should it
have been.
176
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,400
I don't, I, I, I don't believe
that Dylan Gabriel's is an NFL
177
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,360
starting quarterback.
Yeah, Now you could say it's
178
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,440
only a second game, it's too
early to tell, blah, blah, blah.
179
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,320
But you know, the, the, the
problem with him is, you know,
180
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,840
he doesn't have any, he doesn't
have any measurables.
181
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,520
It's like what he might have in
some intangibles.
182
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,160
Well, it's just not going to be
enough when you're not tall and
183
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,880
you don't have a gun for an arm,
right?
184
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,480
You know what I mean?
And you're not and you're not,
185
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,240
you're not fast.
Like he couldn't outrun anybody
186
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,240
when he escaped the pocket, you
know.
187
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,920
So I I mean, really.
And then if you look at the
188
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:49,320
record of like a Tomlin team
versus a a rookie quarterback, I
189
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,920
mean, it's just a massive, it's
like 12 and four or something,
190
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,640
right?
So I think it's better than
191
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,880
that, you know, so no, I mean, I
just don't think, I mean, like
192
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,280
they really don't even have
much.
193
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:06,400
It's not even like a, a Browns
team that had like there was no
194
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,640
Nick Chubb over there.
You know, like, you know, they
195
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,800
really, they really just don't
have much.
196
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,800
And to be honest, I, I, I really
hadn't been aware, but I also
197
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,880
think that the Browns offensive
line is, is horrible.
198
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,240
Now, granted, they had a lot of
injuries on their offensive
199
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,520
line.
I mean, granted, part of that
200
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,160
is, you know, the the Steelers
can put up a nice pass rush, but
201
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:33,000
still, it just seemed like every
play they were getting beaten.
202
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,360
You know, it was like he had no
time.
203
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,320
He was running for his life.
So, yeah, I mean, I just think
204
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,840
it was just, look, they did what
they had to do.
205
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,960
They did it convincingly and
it's a good win because any win
206
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,240
in the National Football League
is a good win because on any
207
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,080
given Sunday, you can still lose
to anybody for sure.
208
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,800
So I think they should be happy
with the win.
209
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,800
But I'm going to, I'm going to
reserve my judgement on kind of
210
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,960
what elite level they're at when
the schedule starts getting
211
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,040
harder and it is getting harder
the next three games.
212
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,600
Well, maybe not, maybe not.
Cincinnati, I think you know,
213
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:15,760
anytime you play in a division,
you're expected to be your
214
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,760
divisional foe foe at home,
especially when the Browns have
215
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,280
literally nothing going for them
right now.
216
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,520
They have absolutely nothing
going for them.
217
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,040
They they blew it with Deshaun
Watson.
218
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,880
They're still feeling the
ramifications of that.
219
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,240
They literally lost.
Remember when OBJ was like
220
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,760
wanted to come in like they had
Amari Cooper and it was like
221
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,560
their wide receivers were like,
wow, they got some real talent.
222
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:43,080
They want to come here.
They they didn't do anything
223
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,200
with that talent either.
I mean, it's just the Browns are
224
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,240
so terrible.
They gave up on Baker Mayfield
225
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,000
is now one of the best
quarterbacks in the league.
226
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:50,920
They.
Should I mean I think?
227
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,680
That field is second secondary,
second contract and they would
228
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:56,840
have been much better off with
him for sure.
229
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,200
But they just don't run the
right schemes.
230
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,160
They they they want to run the
ball like the Steelers do, but
231
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,320
they can't.
I mean, Judkins with an
232
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,040
offensive line.
Their offensive line is
233
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,760
horrible.
And I can't wait to talk about
234
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,200
our offensive line as I know
that's coming up next.
235
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:16,400
But I have to say, say 22 wins
in a row, 22 seasons, you know,
236
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,640
think about that.
You had kids that were drinking
237
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,280
beer at that game last night who
have never seen the Steelers
238
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,520
lose to the Browns at home when
they were born.
239
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,360
Thanks.
Thanks for the perspective, HJ.
240
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,120
That is a crazy amount of time
that makes that that makes that
241
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,440
playoff loss to the Browns all
that work, right?
242
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,360
Because it's like the only time
we lost to them in 22 years was
243
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,040
a home playoff game.
And who was the quarterback?
244
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,240
Ben Roethlisberger.
No.
245
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:46,760
Baker Mayfield.
There you go.
246
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,080
Yeah.
No, it wasn't.
247
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,520
Yeah, it was.
Yeah, I don't think it was.
248
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,240
You could look it up, but I
don't think it.
249
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,440
Was you can look it up you.
Can no I'm I'm giving my
250
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,280
perspective.
I won't look it up.
251
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,800
So.
So for that reason, I think
252
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,520
Jays.
Got a little fire in the belly.
253
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,520
I think that I think the 22 wins
in a row is super impressive.
254
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,120
But yeah, the beating the Browns
at home, you, you have to win
255
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,280
that game.
That's why I think that this
256
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,880
upcoming game is that much
bigger because you're playing it
257
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,920
on the road.
And anytime you can beat a
258
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,280
divisional foe, it's very
important because that just
259
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,560
kicks you up another notch in
the, you know, possible playoff
260
00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:28,680
standings, which now I think the
Steelers stand at 76% chance of
261
00:13:28,680 --> 00:13:30,160
making a YEAH.
We're going to talk about that,
262
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:35,080
too.
So I, you know the biggest
263
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,640
mistake the Cleveland Browns
have made?
264
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,520
And it was Baker Mayfield.
Thank you very much.
265
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,320
The biggest mistake the
Cleveland Browns have made in a
266
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:52,400
virtual barrel filled with big
mistakes is letting Baker
267
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,360
Mayfield go and treating him the
way they did.
268
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,440
I mean that, you know, that he
was a stabilizing force, a
269
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,520
quarterback.
Now, that being said, who cares
270
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,720
about that?
22 victories, straight victories
271
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,960
at home.
You got to remember the Browns
272
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,600
have had 41 different
quarterbacks in the last 20
273
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,320
years 25 years.
So you know they should have won
274
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:16,800
most of those games.
I think what I take away from
275
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:23,000
this more is the fact that the
Browns defense is actually
276
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:29,320
pretty good and we were a able
to run on on on that defense.
277
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,520
Now they got 100 yards, I think
exactly right, something like
278
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,240
100 yards rushing exactly.
Yeah.
279
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,960
So.
Browns only gave up an average
280
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,120
of 75.
Right.
281
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:39,800
So they didn't blow the doors
off.
282
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,760
So I think the running game
still has a little work to do.
283
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,720
But they were able to rush
against 100 yards against a very
284
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,320
good run defense.
Aaron Rodgers was able to hit
285
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,120
passes to DK.
He threw some some great balls.
286
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,840
You know that that that that
touchdown in the end zone to
287
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,560
Hayward was a ridiculously good
throw.
288
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,280
Just like they said on the
broadcast, the 11 of the things
289
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,200
you're taught as a quarterback
don't throw across your body.
290
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,200
Well, what are the great
quarterbacks do They do that and
291
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,360
they succeed.
So he shows, he's showing not
292
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:19,080
just after five games now, not
flashes of the quarterback he
293
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,840
was.
He's showing that he is still a
294
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,400
very good quarterback.
Except for on that deep ball the
295
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,920
the DK when he was wide open.
Yeah, and he underthrew him.
296
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,240
Well, they they.
That was the only bad ball.
297
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,160
I have but that that's.
Everybody has bad.
298
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,840
Ball, that's a chemistry thing,
right?
299
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,760
That's a he was it wasn't it
looked like.
300
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,360
It looked like he didn't have
enough arm to make it there, he
301
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,640
just underthrew it.
Yeah, he, he underthrew it.
302
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,920
That's all that was.
So, you know, I I think that and
303
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,600
on the defensive side of the
ball, the important thing is
304
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,040
that the defense.
Well, let's go back to the
305
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,960
offense and and we're going to
talk about this.
306
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,080
I'm just going to put this right
up right now.
307
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,400
Broderick Jones shut out Miles
Garrett.
308
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,040
OK, HJ down here.
He says it's time to shut the F
309
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,800
up about him sucking.
Now.
310
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:05,840
What's your take in the
comments?
311
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,840
How do you feel about that?
Before we move on to that real
312
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,560
quick, Yoho son says the Browns
QB jersey was brown from getting
313
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,800
smashed and pushed around.
He also said it's just another
314
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,000
win.
But the momentum in our division
315
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,640
record is is sweet.
And that's that's for sure.
316
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,160
That's good.
And once again, Baz, I mean,
317
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,120
basically he won that game for
him, even though he didn't win
318
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:29,560
that game for him, you know what
I'm saying?
319
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,040
Yeah, I mean, he got all those
field goals in the first half
320
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,960
and that's super important.
I mean, so when you know you're
321
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:39,160
just laying up to to kick the
field goal, you can rely on Baz.
322
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,720
It's just like automatic almost
unless there's a field issue,
323
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,880
unless now also.
Get to so, So Broderick Jones
324
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,480
shut out Miles Garrett.
Is it time to stop saying he
325
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,880
sucks?
Yeah.
326
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,720
I mean, yes, that that was an
impressive showing.
327
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,640
Rogers.
Did Rogers get sacked?
328
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:01,480
No, he did not.
I don't.
329
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,079
Think he got sacked at all.
So yeah, the line as a whole did
330
00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:08,000
their job.
And Broderick Jones shutting out
331
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:13,079
Garrett, I mean, everybody has a
good game once too, so I'm not
332
00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:15,359
ready just yet to say he
doesn't.
333
00:17:15,599 --> 00:17:20,160
Yeah, I mean, to be honest, I
didn't notice him, which is what
334
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,560
you want, right?
But I'm also not going to say
335
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,920
he's good now because he had one
good game.
336
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,000
Right.
That's that's kind of.
337
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,880
What I mean, right, right.
So, you know, but it's
338
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,520
encouraging, Yes, it's
encouraging, very.
339
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,960
Actually very encouraging.
I mean, you say just a good
340
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,880
game.
He played against the Hall of
341
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,480
Fame rushing linebacker and he
held him.
342
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:48,560
He held him to 0 sacks in a game
where the Steelers had good
343
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,880
balance.
So although I think the balance
344
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,120
helped him, I think he's
starting to show that if you
345
00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:57,520
would have put him on that left
side to begin with, he would be
346
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,120
even much better now than he is.
You know, only having four
347
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:04,640
games, five games underneath him
playing that left side.
348
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,960
And I think Fatano on the other
side is also, you know, coming
349
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:12,960
into his own because let's face
it, I think he struggled off the
350
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,840
bat also.
So I think having those, having
351
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,760
your tackles, being able to
keep, you know, the quarterback
352
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,600
safe, even though the pocket
still looks like it's collapsing
353
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,520
quite a bit.
I still I think that's going to
354
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,440
be more important than anything
when it comes to the Steelers
355
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,120
success against good teams,
because right now, let's face
356
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:36,120
it, Rogers is getting the ball
out quickly.
357
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:38,160
Yeah, no, that's he's very good
at that.
358
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,800
Yeah, and and I think that's the
way the offense is, is is
359
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,240
made-up to be able to do that.
But eventually and the Browns
360
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,440
roll up more than anybody.
So you I would have thought that
361
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,400
they would have been chucking
the ball a little bit deeper
362
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,800
because let's face it, when you
got one-on-one, you got DK out
363
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,480
there.
Why not just do it?
364
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,400
And they did do that early.
Let's say you know, some of
365
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,640
those behind the behind the
shoulder passes were only could
366
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,880
get and there was I think 1 deep
one where ended up pitting the
367
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,760
defensive back right a square in
his back.
368
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,400
He wasn't even looking.
It just happened to hit him.
369
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,600
So I think that's going to be
very important when we play
370
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,920
against the better teams.
Although I think I do think that
371
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,880
their commitment to the run on
the offensive side was pretty
372
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,200
impressive, even though they
only they only got 100 yards.
373
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,920
Everybody was running the ball
and I thought Jalen Warren was
374
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,520
especially efficient in running
the ball.
375
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,640
He, he looked like he was
running a little bit mad, like
376
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,720
he, he wanted to make sure
everybody knew he was the number
377
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,280
one running back.
And I think for me, he, he, he
378
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,920
took a notch up in, in my eyes,
the way he was running the ball
379
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,800
and you know, not even fumbling,
not even looking like he was
380
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,680
fumbling ball.
He had really good control of
381
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,640
the ball as he was running hard.
And I think that's that's the
382
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,120
most impressive thing that I
like about him.
383
00:19:56,360 --> 00:19:59,840
They did give, they did give
Caleb Johnson some touches.
384
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,440
He looked like, you know, I
think he had a 10 yard run in
385
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,040
like the first half and then he
really couldn't get get going on
386
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,120
the last drive.
But I mean, at that point they
387
00:20:08,120 --> 00:20:09,840
knew we were going to run
through the same time.
388
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,080
So you're running into a brick
wall there.
389
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,880
So I don't, I don't fault him
for that, but.
390
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,680
I do hope that that that means
they're going to be bringing him
391
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,280
on a little bit more as the year
continues to go on.
392
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,400
It's still not enough for me
because when you when you draft
393
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,680
that high, somebody that what
that running back position has
394
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,040
to be a little bit more.
But we'll see as the year goes
395
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,120
on and hopefully, you know,
again, Cincinnati, who's a much
396
00:20:34,120 --> 00:20:36,680
weaker defense, we'll see a lot
more running.
397
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,720
You know, I'm thinking.
I didn't feel, I didn't feel
398
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,680
like Jalen Warren got enough
carries.
399
00:20:44,120 --> 00:20:47,240
Yeah, yeah, maybe not, you know?
Well, I still think they run
400
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,920
Gainwell too much personally.
Yeah, Yoho, GAIL.
401
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,720
'S been showing up pretty good
lately.
402
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,000
He has, but but that's that kind
of that works kind of to my
403
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,640
point here.
Yeah, I think we talked about
404
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,200
this, I think. 2022 snaps is
just too many for him.
405
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,000
So.
For Gainwell, yeah.
406
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:06,320
They.
Is that all just offense?
407
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,440
Yeah, OK.
Any chance I could join the
408
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:10,240
conference?
How many?
409
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,080
How many total snaps were there?
What percent of snaps is that?
410
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:21,120
It says right here team snaps
A50 percent 49.8.
411
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,200
OK, so.
Maybe a touch too much.
412
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,640
The offensive line was young
coming into the year.
413
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,600
Broderick Jones was moving back
over to what everybody hopes is
414
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,040
his natural position.
I'm sorry, three more percentage
415
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,280
points than Jalen Warren.
And.
416
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,960
That shouldn't be.
Right.
417
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,920
And I think that as the year
goes by, Bill Cower was talking
418
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,360
about this on the post game
show.
419
00:21:40,360 --> 00:21:43,840
I watched that clip and
basically what he's saying.
420
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,160
I kind of agree with that.
They've got a young offensive
421
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,040
line that's getting better as
the season goes by.
422
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,280
That's only going to be better
for Aaron Rodgers.
423
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,400
It's only going to be better for
the running game.
424
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,640
And then as you saw in this
game, they did bring Caleb
425
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,480
Johnson in a little more.
Maybe they're working him in as
426
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,080
that line gets better.
Maybe that's the strategy.
427
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,960
Not saying it is, but that could
end up being good.
428
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,640
As far as the defense goes,
you've got guys that have won
429
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,720
Super Bowls, you've got guys
that are Pro Bowlers.
430
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,120
You've got guys that are
probably Hall of Farmers.
431
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,600
Sooner or later, they're going
to work together as well.
432
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,760
This is what Cower was saying.
Sooner or later that defense is
433
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,280
going to step up and once they
because they all know how to
434
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,520
play ball really, really well,
most of them the the, the, the
435
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,640
veterans at a high level.
So sooner or later it's going to
436
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,920
gel and communicate correctly.
This could have been the start
437
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,600
of that.
Even though it was against a bad
438
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,400
Cleveland offense, the fact that
you were dominating so well and
439
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,720
didn't let them score a
touchdown and and sacking people
440
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,000
and forcing fumbles and were
there any interceptions?
441
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,640
I don't remember.
There were no turnovers for
442
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,520
either team.
Well, but they they were they
443
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:52,360
which?
Is surprising.
444
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,920
They forced the ball.
Out.
445
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,960
They were back.
Well, I will say this Washington
446
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,640
fumble, Dylan Gabriel had about
four or five passes that had
447
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,280
chances to be intercepted,
right?
448
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:03,120
Yeah.
Yeah, right.
449
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,840
Yeah.
So you know, you're, you're
450
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,720
forcing them to play poorly
because you're that good.
451
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,240
So, you know, I, I would
consider this to be a little bit
452
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,360
of both, a little bit of both.
Yes, it was just another win
453
00:23:15,360 --> 00:23:17,600
against the lowly Browns on home
turf.
454
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,000
You never know how it's going to
work out out in Cleveland, but.
455
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,280
As long as it doesn't snow.
Right as at the same time
456
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,960
though, this is a game where you
look at it and say they should
457
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,800
have won, they they should have
won this.
458
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,520
Game by double digit.
And they and winning by double
459
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,280
digit shows OK, are they you
know, they're they're definitely
460
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,840
getting better and that's what
you want to see at this point
461
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,520
completely.
I like the fact that their
462
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,960
offense scored over 20 points
against a a really good defense.
463
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,120
I think that that's what I like.
Well, and that was Roger showing
464
00:23:50,120 --> 00:23:52,120
his moxie.
You know, he's, he knows where
465
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:53,720
to put the ball.
He knows how to run the, he
466
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,920
knows how to run the offense and
they're definitely letting him
467
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,600
run.
It and those 3 field goals in
468
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,120
the first half, one of those
should have been a damn
469
00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:02,440
touchdown yeah, they should have
they should have tried a little
470
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,240
bit harder to get into the end
zone, but I agree they they were
471
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,360
laying up a little bit.
I don't know what you guys
472
00:24:07,360 --> 00:24:12,640
think, but I but I did also
think that when they called
473
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,320
roughing the kicker on the
Cleveland player yeah, which
474
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:16,840
extended the drive for the
Steelers.
475
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:17,800
He.
Was blocked into him.
476
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,000
Yeah, but, well, that doesn't,
that doesn't really matter.
477
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,280
That doesn't really matter.
The the point that I'm making is
478
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,120
that I felt like Cleveland gave
up after that.
479
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:30,440
I mean, I'm not saying they gave
up, but like their heart, their
480
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,040
heart sank, right.
They, you know, they were
481
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,880
getting the ball back.
They had a pretty good field
482
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,320
position in the game.
I think it was 9 nothing at that
483
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,360
point.
Yeah, it was like 9 three, I
484
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,880
think, you know, so they had a
chance to and and that.
485
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,480
Yeah.
And then at that point, it was
486
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,320
just like, we got to stop him
again.
487
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,840
Yeah, You know what I mean?
And that's a really good point.
488
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:50,520
And then they just got pounded.
And so.
489
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,560
Yeah.
Now, one thing I have to bring
490
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,280
up is the fact that they're
finally using Mount Washington.
491
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,520
And yes, he looks like in his
hands could be a little better.
492
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,880
But I got to tell you that first
pass of the game right to him
493
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,840
where he was rumbling.
That was really brilliant.
494
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,760
I.
Mean you get you get that guy in
495
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,320
space and he learns how to hold
on to that ball.
496
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:09,640
He's not going to outrun
anybody.
497
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,560
But I tell you what, it's no fun
to tackle as open as he was.
498
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,600
He's got a he does have to watch
a whole running with that ball
499
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:19,760
out there a little bit.
Yeah.
500
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,640
At least he was running it on on
the sidelines and he was holding
501
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,560
it because if you're running it
on the side of the stab, you can
502
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,040
pop it back in the field of
play.
503
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:29,800
So.
And did you see who was right
504
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,320
there just in case he fumble the
ball?
505
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,480
DK was falling in the whole way.
So he was like, OK, if he
506
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,000
fumbles it, I'm jumping on that
thing or I'm running that
507
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,000
bitching in the end zone.
So that's what I love about DK,
508
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,920
even though, you know, he's no
didn't need to be anywhere near
509
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,680
that play.
He was because he was.
510
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,520
He's a smart player and he he
looks out for those things.
511
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,440
So the, the, the take away that
I that from this game
512
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,480
offensively though for me is
that they they were definitely
513
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,560
working in the tight ends into
the offense in this.
514
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,240
Game a lot more.
A lot more.
515
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,960
Austin is out and Metcalf is
there.
516
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,960
Roman Wilson gets his first
catch.
517
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,000
Listen guys.
We even have to go there.
518
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:10,520
We.
Talk.
519
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,200
We talk about this kind of stuff
a lot on the porch and the
520
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,720
reason we talk about it is this.
We don't hold back.
521
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,200
We make the calls that we see
him.
522
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,800
We're fans. 35 years, 40 years,
50 years watching the Steelers,
523
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:29,080
watching football in general.
Probably more like 45 years, but
524
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,920
100 plus years.
Look, we.
525
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,160
We.
We. 150 years combined
526
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:35,320
experience.
There you go.
527
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,840
Thank you.
And you got to you got to call
528
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,880
it like you see it.
You got to call it like you see
529
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:42,840
it.
We've done this with the
530
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,280
Pirates.
We've done this with the other
531
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,640
Steelers players.
HJ certainly does it with the
532
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:53,640
hockey guys, with the Penguins.
Look, jump off this Roman Wilson
533
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,840
bandwagon.
They clearly don't like the.
534
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,560
Guy whether they like him
doesn't matter.
535
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,240
They don't think he well, right
what you're saying, they don't
536
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,000
think he can play and.
So he's not going to play.
537
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,040
I don't think he can play
either.
538
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,120
And let's get rid of this idea
that somehow if he gets a shot,
539
00:27:11,120 --> 00:27:13,400
he's going to be the number 2
receiver now.
540
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,880
Sorry, what happened already?
I don't know.
541
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,440
Maybe it happens on another
team.
542
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,760
Find a number 2 receiver, if
anything is going to hold this
543
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:25,600
team back as the schedule gets
more difficult, which it's going
544
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,400
to.
Maybe AJ Brown's available?
545
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,760
It's the number two big receiver
slot.
546
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:35,080
If Metcalf goes down, they got
nothing in the receiving court.
547
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,640
Nothing.
And look, Rogers is good, but he
548
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,960
ain't that good.
You know, he's just not.
549
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,440
He's not going to turn Austin
into a superstar.
550
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,200
This isn't on the list, but what
do you think of that Keyshawn
551
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,200
Williams that they picked up is
running back the kicks and he
552
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,320
ran back that punt for a really
nice return.
553
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,520
He's fast.
Yeah, I mean, he and it was, it
554
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,000
was, there was a kickoff return
that went really far, but it was
555
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,240
called back.
It was called back.
556
00:27:58,240 --> 00:27:59,680
Yeah.
He looks like he's got some
557
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,640
burst.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
558
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,840
Why not?
Fine, throw him out there.
559
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,560
I mean, I'm, I'm, I'm not, I'm
not mocking it.
560
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,320
I'm just saying fine, throw him
out there.
561
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,600
But but throw somebody out
there.
562
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,720
If Metcalf goes down, you're
finished and as the defenses in
563
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,080
the team.
'S defense, I'm not saying his
564
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,720
wide receiver, for Christ's
sake.
565
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,120
He was just saying he's just
saying as a returner, as a
566
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,400
returner.
I I think it, I think that's a
567
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,720
step up from what Gainwell was
doing.
568
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,200
Clearly they're not going to put
Caleb Johnson back there after
569
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:28,680
what happened in the Seattle
game.
570
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,120
He's never going back there and
he shouldn't have been back
571
00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:33,200
there at the begin.
But I guess what I'm saying is a
572
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,720
lot of times, you know, the
returner is a fourth or fifth
573
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,480
receiver.
Put him out there.
574
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,000
He's got a burst, you know,
nobody, you know, Austin does
575
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,640
have speed, but he's tiny.
This guy is a little taller,
576
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,160
whatever.
And, and, and we're talking
577
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,240
about the the punt returner, the
kick returner, they need a
578
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,480
number 2 wide receivers.
They go into this, well, you
579
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:56,480
know, part of their schedule.
I will say that I'm not sure, I
580
00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,200
can't remember exactly what the
reason was, but apparently there
581
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,280
was a lot more movement than
usual last year at the trade
582
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,120
deadline.
And they're, I've read reports
583
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:10,320
that they're anticipating it to
be just as as big this year.
584
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,040
They said maybe even sooner.
Yeah, they they're not going to
585
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,920
wait till the exact right.
They said you could see about 16
586
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,720
names move at the trade
deadline.
587
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,400
Yeah, well, I mean, you know.
So I don't see any reason why.
588
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,520
I mean there will be 1
available.
589
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,920
There should be there, should
you know, maybe.
590
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,160
And it might be A.J.
Brown.
591
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,880
You know, how about Ridley?
I don't know.
592
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:33,360
Sure.
I'm not told on him.
593
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,600
He's better than.
Mine here we go now we're not.
594
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,200
We go, we go get Calvin Ridley
not stolen on Calvin Ridley.
595
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,520
Calvin Ridley is not good.
He's only been, he's only been
596
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,680
1000 yard receiver every year of
his career.
597
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,840
I I think they should trade for
Jamar Chase, you know?
598
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,080
Jamar.
You go Jamar.
599
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,160
Chase and Jamar Flacco Jamar
Chase and Joe Flacco.
600
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,200
Yeah, they, they need to go get
Jamar Chase.
601
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,720
That makes a whole lot of sense.
I I think that they should to
602
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,080
trade Roman Wilson for Jamarche.
I agree, and I think I would.
603
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,360
Do that all day long.
All right, before we move on to
604
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,560

00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,240
more time.

it in the banners right now,

619
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,880
But if you click this link right
here, I'm putting in the
620
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,720
comments.
And you want to be a part of the
621

green room and you can wait for
623
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,240
us there and we'll say hello
guys, you remember this.
624
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,000
This is actually believe it or
not, when I pulled this video up
625
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,280
when you when you told me about
it Steve, I did not realize that
626
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,120
how old it was 20 years old.
Yeah, but but we're going to
627
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,040
talk about this because there
was an issue with a non football
628
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:17,400
or a non contact injury to one
of their best special teamers,
629
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,440
Killebrew.
And I immediately texted these
630
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,640
guys and said didn't they?
I thought they took care of this
631
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,520
years ago It.
Might have been it picked a
632
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,200
player look at just as well as
his punch.
633
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,560
Brandon Field struggled earlier,
got the wet ball away.
634
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:35,160
Alan Rossum going to go and it
looks like it's on a team if you
635
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,160
tee the.
Ball up you.
636
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,280
Couldn't put it any better.
You can.
637
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,680
You can go for the pin today,
can you Mike?
638
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,880
You can take out that 9 iron, go
straight for the pin, drop it
639
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,240
down at one.
Unbelievable.
640
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,520
Bad field.
Yeah, that's that's 2000 and
641
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,920
seven, 2007 in what was then
known as the field formerly
642
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:01,520
known as Heintfield.
Yeah.
643
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:03,880
And a punt stuck right in the
mud.
644
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,800
So.
And I and I know that was after
645
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,040
a hurricane that blew it still,
yeah, that field was much worse
646
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:14,160
than what we saw yesterday.
Yeah, yeah, it was much worse.
647
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,560
But did you you see that divot?
Did you see the divot?
648
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,800
I can't.
I've never, ever, never since
649
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,880
have seen a punt where it just
lands and it just sticks in the
650
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,400
ground.
Well, well, that was 2007.
651
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,640
I'm talking about yesterday as
they were leaving the broadcast
652
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,840
to cut the commercial.
Yeah, they kind of focused on
653
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,800
the area where he fell and they
showed that divot well, and it
654
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,000
was like, it was like this deep,
like like 6 inches deep.
655
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,200
I mean I I, I.
Know that's what he did when he
656
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,240
slid, but did you see if I
watch, I went back and watched
657
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,200
it.
He must have taken at least 10
658
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,280
or 15 seconds and he was
stepping on the ground all over
659
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,080
that area.
He knew, he knew the ground was
660
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,880
not stable.
So he was trying to make it more
661
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,920
stable by stepping on it.
And he was down to like, I don't
662
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,760
know, maybe like 8 seconds or
something.
663
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,800
So he, he knew he had to kick
it, but he knew, he, he, he
664
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,280
already knew he was going to
miss it.
665
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:08,080
You could tell like, and they do
have to do something about that.
666
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:12,760
I can't believe that, you know,
everybody knows that Pittsburgh
667
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,600
stadiums were funded by tax
money, right?
668
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,600
Yes.
If you don't, it's true.
669
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,080
They they, they instituted the
1% tax in all of Allegheny
670
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,320
County so that they could fund
stadiums.
671
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:27,640
Since that time, it is brought
in over $5 billion worth of
672
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,960
revenue.
OK, $5 billion.
673
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,080
You would think with that $5
billion, they could set aside
674
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,760
some of that money to put a damn
turf on the field that will
675
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,720
actually allow players not to
get hurt and that they don't
676
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,160
have to replace it after 12
games every time they play.
677
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,200
Because not only do the Steelers
play there, but the the home
678
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,640
team, the Pit Panthers also play
down there.
679
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:55,720
So it's 12 every every 12 games,
whether it's the Pit Panthers or
680
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,960
the Pittsburgh Steelers.
When it gets to 12, they take
681
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,400
the bad turf off.
They put some down and they have
682
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,200
to do it at a certain time
because supposedly it takes
683
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:08,120
almost two weeks for it to to to
take hold so that the new turf
684
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,080
will be good.
That's ridiculous.
685
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:14,320
In the NFL, you got to be able
to put down a field that is is
686
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,239
good enough for NFL players that
make billions of dollars
687
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:22,719
combined and keep them safe.
It just doesn't make any sense,
688
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:23,920
no.
Yeah.
689
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,000
And the money's there, That's my
point.
690
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,880
No, it's not.
If it was there, they would use
691
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,520
it if it's.
There, but they're not spending
692
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,560
it on the turf.
They're there, but it's in
693
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,320
pockets.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
694
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:39,000
The bigger question is $5
billion is what they raked in
695
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,199
from that 1% tax.
And counting.
696
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:44,719
What the hell happened to it?
Where did it go?
697
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,400
The The ask the the city's urban
authority, the.
698
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,480
City is in such a budget crisis
dude.
699
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:54,520
There are 7 people in charge of
that money, 7 people that are
700
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,040
appointed by Allegheny County
and the City of.
701
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,320
Pittsburgh How do you get on
that list?
702
00:34:59,960 --> 00:35:02,960
You got to run for election?
Oh no, no, they're appointed,
703
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,480
they're appointed.
So how many do you think the
704
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:07,760
Rooney's appointed?
You got to kiss the right ass
705
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,680
for that The.
Rooney's probably appoint 5 and
706
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:11,960
it doesn't matter who else is
on.
707
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,200
That is, that is.
That's just speculation, but
708
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,520
Mike Lawrence is in the house.
What's up, Mike?
709
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,280
I'm glad Boss didn't get
injured.
710
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,880
That was scary.
Yeah.
711
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,440
What I'm hoping is that even
though he completely realizes
712
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,280
the reason he missed, let's hope
it didn't get in his head that
713
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:31,520
that's what we don't want to
see.
714
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,920
We need Boss having a little bit
of a hiccup here, although after
715
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,120
the last couple years he's had,
I mean, come on, is it?
716
00:35:38,240 --> 00:35:40,280
It's going to happen.
You know it's going to happen.
717
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,160
Eventually.
At least they have a guy that
718
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,160
can throw.
The one thing I love about Aaron
719
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,200
Rodgers right now is his
interview right before the
720
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,960
season started, when camp
started, when he said, look, I'm
721
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,800
going to throw a lot of
touchdown passes, and he meant
722
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,320
it.
And I'm going to throw a lot of
723
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:54,480
interceptions.
And I'm going to throw
724
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,880
interceptions and I'm going to
throw a lot of touch.
725
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,320
Well, you know, he's got, you
know, Bods has the ultimate
726
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,800
endorsement when Tomlin calls
him a serial killer because he
727
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,040
has ice in his veins.
Yeah.
728
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,880
Yeah, so I mean, I, I, you know,
we all know that wasn't Baz's
729
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,600
fault the the field.
But yeah, I agree.
730
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:14,560
All that money put in a real,
you know, state-of-the-art turf.
731
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,480
Come on, get it right.
I mean, they did fix it compared
732
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,160
to 2007.
That's why, that's why we wanted
733
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:21,960
to show.
You the video I think they put
734
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,280
drainage in under the field and
stuff like that.
735
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,520
Yeah, so now we can drain, but
now we need to put a turf.
736
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,480
They still can't play.
There, they still can't play
737
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,800
safe football.
Where's the sod father when you
738
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,480
need them?
Seriously, where is the?
739
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,680
Where is the sod Father Chris
Chaud?
740
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,040
Here he is.
Were you talking about the
741
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:38,600
state, the new stadium in
Pittsburgh?
742
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,000
I've been hearing about it
online.
743
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,200
Oh boy, Aquisher is only 24
years old.
744
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,240
That's a whole another
conversation OC.
745
00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:48,400
Yeah, it it, it really is.
There's all kinds of shit being
746
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,760
talked about behind the.
Scene they are replacing all the
747
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,960
seats Yeah, we know that's
happening, which is good.
748
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,520
The color is bad.
Yeah, I'm I'm happy they are
749
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:56,640
replacing the seats.
What?
750
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:57,920
Color.
Would you rather it be?
751
00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,960
Just put in freaking white
seats.
752
00:36:59,960 --> 00:37:01,080
Anything.
Anything.
753
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,280
Just.
Putting the seats in the link.
754
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,520
Green, probably.
Green's a good color in the
755
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,600
link.
Boy, it's been a long time since
756
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:10,680
I've been.
I think they're Gray, actually.
757
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,200
Gray is good, Gray is good.
It's a nice neutral.
758
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,240
Color already seven to seven in
the building's seats, I.
759
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,240
Mean you could go like it would
melt, you know?
760
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,800
At PNC on that one side.
Yeah, at PNC Park they're Navy
761
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,840
blue and those look fine.
Yeah, well, I mean, you know,
762
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,600
that's 'cause that's PNC's
color.
763
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,200
Yeah, even though PNC's not
paying.
764
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,640
For that's not Navy blue, it's
PNC blue.
765
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,480
I work actually I don't think.
I worked there it is.
766
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,600
I worked at PNC.
Doesn't mean you know it.
767
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,160
It's.
PNC Blue.
768
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,760
It's even though now it's faded
after 25 years of being able to
769
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,040
look that up.
No, no, it is.
770
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:43,640
I agree with you.
I don't need to look it up.
771
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,680
Okay, see, There you go.
Two against one.
772
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,680

792
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,600
And I just want, I just want to
give one last shot our demon
793
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:43,520
qualities.
OK.
794
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,640
I just want to give one last
shout out to Chris Shotta.
795
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,520
If you want to know, go about
the the new leases and
796
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,680
everything that are that are up.
Jeremy Reynolds from the
797
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,240
Pittsburgh Post Gazette had a
really good article on October
798
00:38:56,240 --> 00:38:58,520
12th.
Check out that article.
799
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,800
It goes into great detail about
what's going on behind the
800
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,720
scenes now and you know how
they've been funded and how
801
00:39:04,720 --> 00:39:08,160
they've wasted all our money as
Allegheny County taxpayers.
802
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,120
But it's, it's, it's a really
good expose.
803
00:39:11,240 --> 00:39:14,320
You should read that.
All right, Excellent, Excellent.
804
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,840
OK, we're going to move on to
porch picks.
805
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,720
What are porch picks?
Well, porch picks are our picks
806
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:24,280
for the upcoming NFL weekend.
We pick the Thursday night game,
807
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,800
we pick the Sunday night game,
and we pick a random Sunday
808
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,360
game.
And then we compile all of our
809
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,240
records to see who is the best
at the end of the year.
810
00:39:33,240 --> 00:39:36,240
And then there is no penalty for
losing, which I think is really
811
00:39:36,240 --> 00:39:38,760
like wimpy like of all of us.
I think there should be a
812
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,840
penalty.
You're a child.
813
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,560
And it isn't the whole point
like OK.
814
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:46,360
To win something.
I'm an adult.
815
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,440
All right, so porch picks.
That's fragging, right?
816
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,040
There.
All right, Last week, Thursday
817
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,600
night, we all had the Eagles
over the Giants.
818
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,720
Oh, wow, the Eagles.
Wow, we really kind of missed
819
00:39:57,720 --> 00:40:00,560
that one.
Didn't see 31 coming out of
820
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:04,160
scatterboats.
Sunday, 49ers at the Bucks.
821
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:08,920
Mark and Chris had the Bucks.
Steve had the Niners I.
822
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,520
Blew that, by the way, I had
Baker blown it up.
823
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:12,360
He blew it.
Up.
824
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,960
Yeah, Mark.
Mark had Detroit, Steve and
825
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,160
Chris had Kansas City.
That puts our weekly record
826
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:23,600
right now at this the TD that is
me 10 and eight, HJ 10 and 8
827
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,920
grandchildren, 8 and 10.
Because I'm the TD.
828
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,400
Because I get to decide which.
Comes before TI.
829
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:30,880
Don't give a shit what you about
the.
830
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,480
It's always alphabetical.
Or we don't need an alphabet
831
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:34,840
anymore.
We have our phones.
832
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,120
We don't need to remember
anything, we don't need to spell
833
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,240
anything.
Shit, we don't even need to read
834
00:40:39,240 --> 00:40:40,720
anything anymore.
All right, so we.
835
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:42,640
Don't even have to make these
picks, but we're going.
836
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:47,840
Pop off.
Here's one thing that we did
837
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,080
talk about earlier.
Actually, I'll save that for
838
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:52,440
after the porch pick.
There you go.
839
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:59,760
So the Thursday night game is
one that we are all just dying
840
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:06,040
to see because it is the return
of Joe Flacco in a Bengals
841
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,960
uniform or not.
He's not coming back here, but
842
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,200
to play against the Steelers.
So the Steelers at the Bengals.
843
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,880
Now I'm going to say this, We
don't have to follow our picks
844
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,080
from our overall record.
Well, yeah, if you want to be
845
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,920
wishy washy.
About it, No, I just want to
846
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,480
say, you know, let's talk about
who's going to win Thursday.
847
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,720
Steelers at Bengals, your pick
in the comments.
848
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,280
HJ was 1 and 2.
Mark was 1 and 2.
849
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,440
You get to go.
I was two and one.
850
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:42,400
I am going to take the Steelers.
Anybody else?
851
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,280
Grand Schwabini.
I will also take the Steelers,
852
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:51,400
well unlike you losers, I am not
going to go away from the pick
853
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,120
that I took at the beginning of
the season and I will stick with
854
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,760
the Cincinnati Bengals.
You think they have one game of?
855
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,360
Trying to play it.
Whoa, Flacco, he could do.
856
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,560
It Yeah.
I mean, possibly, but I don't
857
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:04,160
know.
I don't know.
858
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:05,520
After after the I.
Don't know.
859
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,400
I think our defense is playing
very well.
860
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,080
I'm just, I'm just sticking with
what I what I went with.
861
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:11,800
I don't.
I don't necessarily believe it,
862
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,160
but I'm going to stick.
Well, see, we can change it
863
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,200
because things have changed.
I think if Burrow was still who
864
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,600
was still, you know, slinging
the ball, then, you know, I'm,
865
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,200
I'm, I might be inclined to go
with Burrow, depending on what.
866
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,160
The why?
Why would you go with the ball?
867
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,800
I mean, the guy barely plays
football.
868
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,600
Well, you're going with.
All the money out of out of
869
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:31,960
Cincinnati.
Here we go again.
870
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,800
And he's like never getting them
back to his Super Bowl ever
871
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,120
again.
I think Steve needs therapy over
872
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,280
this Joe Burrow situation.
I mean, what about you?
873
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,640
Prove me wrong.
Well, he's saying prove me
874
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,240
wrong.
I am so OK, that's it.
875
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,160
Cincinnati.
Steve takes Cincinnati.
876
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:52,600
The Sunday game is not the 49ers
at box.
877
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,800
That was last week.
The Sunday game this week.
878
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:57,880
The Los Angeles.
Rams.
879
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,960
At the Jacksonville Jaguars.
In London, however.
880
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,360
That's the Sunday game.
That's the Sunday night game.
881
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,280
Yeah, that's what I said.
The Sunday game.
882
00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:11,240
Rams at Jaguars, that's in.
Jaguar.
883
00:43:12,240 --> 00:43:16,440
Jaguar.
Jaguar, Jaguar, Jaguar.
884
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,120
Well, that's how the Brits say
it.
885
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,400
They say Jaguar.
And it is in London, so.
886
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,200
Yeah, yeah.
Sunday Rams at Jaguars.
887
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,600
London's apparently there's.
Jaguar in it.
888
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:31,880
There's multiple London's in it.
My pick, Rams at Jaguars.
889
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,440
You know, there's no home field
advantage because it's in
890
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,720
London.
I'm going with the Jags, though.
891
00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:42,840
They, they, they, they beat
Cincinnati or they beat Kansas
892
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:46,440
City.
I think I'm going with the Jags.
893
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:47,840
With the Jags.
Yep.
894
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,080
You're picking the comments.
You're picking the comments.
895
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:55,440
I am serious.
I am going to take those Rams as
896
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,440
am I, I think.
I think Jacksonville's due for a
897
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,320
let down.
Thank you Chris, that gets me
898
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,120
one back in the game.
You're welcome.
899
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:07,360
Sunday night game is Atlanta,
the Falcons, who are currently.
900
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,520
Tied with the titles side with
the.
901
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:16,800
Bills The Falcons are at San
Francisco, The Falcons at the
902
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,680
49.
There will be no Fred Warner, no
903
00:44:19,720 --> 00:44:22,080
Fred Warner.
He's out for the year, outs for
904
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,240
the year.
Will Purdy be back?
905
00:44:24,240 --> 00:44:26,720
Was he back this week at all?
No, he's not bad.
906
00:44:26,720 --> 00:44:28,320
So we're thinking Purdy next
week.
907
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,880
Maybe they he didn't sound like
he was going to be bad.
908
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,200
Well, it's important to know
because it really is one of us,
909
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,360
well, one of us definitely feels
a Purdy is a Hall of Fame
910
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,440
potential entrant, first ballot
definitely.
911
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,080
So kind of need to know if he's
starting.
912
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,800
We're not going to need, we're
not going to have that
913
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,800
information in front of us.
Mike Clark says the Rams
914
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:57,080
Stafford will shine.
By the way, I I am saying that
915
00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:03,160
it is going to be the 49ers.
I think the Falcons are bad.
916
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,920
That's that's my pick, the
49ers.
917
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,440
They could beat Buffalo tonight.
Yeah, we'll see.
918
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,000
Where is this game in San
Francisco?
919
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,680
I will take the 49ers.
I'm going to make it a trifecta.
920
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:20,880
San Francisco.
In San Francisco, 4 touchdowns
921
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:25,160
like CMC.
Now here's one thing going all
922
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:29,440
the way back to our Steelers
conversation Chance of making
923
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,640
the playoffs.
The Steelers 76%.
924
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,960
The Bengals currently 8%.
Why worry about this game?
925
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,200
I don't know.
I don't think we should worry
926
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,040
about it.
That's why we should worry about
927
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,520
it.
Yeah, it's not really a concern.
928
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,360
But any division game, you never
know.
929
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:45,960
Throw out the records.
Yeah.
930
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:47,680
Look at what happened to the
Eagles.
931
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:48,800
Yeah.
That's true.
932
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:53,760
They lost to the lowly Giants.
Yeah, Cam Scataboo was still
933
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,960
doing flips in the end zone.
Yeah, tonight he.
934
00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,800
Didn't do in his search.
I hope they knock his head off
935
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,800
in 2 weeks.

952
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,600
and through the Stanley Cup
Playoffs.
953
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:59,600
Catch him at the sports.
Sports podcast on YouTube after
954
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,200
every single game and he drops
that podcast.
955
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,520
Hockey Jesus, tonight you were
going to talk a little bit about
956
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,600
the first three games.
Two and one looked good in the
957
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,520
first game, not bad in the
second game, kind of got their
958
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,360
ass handed to him in the third
game.
959
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:16,080
But what you're saying is you're
going to preach a little bit on
960
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,480
the difference between the four
to one victory over the Rangers
961
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:24,840
in game one and the six to one
loss to the very same team back
962
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,800
here in Pittsburgh.
So lay it on as hockey Jesus.
963
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,520
Preach.
Well, I have to say I'm actually
964
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,440
pretty happy with their start.
You know, two and one to begin
965
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,680
with will absolutely get you in
the play offs and if you do that
966
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,520
all season long, there is just
nothing to really be concerned
967
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:44,560
about the the second line.
I'm going to skip the first line
968
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,640
for now because the first line
is really where I'm going to
969
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,720
focus.
The second line's been great.
970
00:47:48,720 --> 00:47:51,600
Malkin's been playing with
Anthony Mantha and Justin Brazo.
971
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,040
I'm not going to go into detail
about Brazo, but I can tell you
972
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,800
that that line is absolutely
ginormous.
973
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,080
Everybody in that line's over 6
foot 3.
974
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,920
Kobe Armstrong nicknamed it the
the Shrek line.
975
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,160
He called it the Monster line
last night.
976
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,880
So I don't really know it's
actually has an identity yet,
977
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,320
but let's just say they're a
bunch of big boys out there now.
978
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,560
On the third line, you got
Benjamin Kindle.
979
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,480
Kindle is our rookie that we
just drafted this year and he's
980
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,920
been playing lights out.
He's been great.
981
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,880
Already has a goal as a rookie,
has a has a has an assist.
982
00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:29,880
So he's got 2 points in three
games and for a rookie who
983
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:33,000
really wasn't even supposed to
play this year, to me I think
984
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,760
he's been playing.
He's been playing lights out.
985
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:39,600
He's playing with Tommy Novak
and Philip Hollander right now.
986
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,960
Those lineman are OK, but I just
like the fact that that line has
987
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,920
a lot of speed and nobody really
knows how to play against them
988
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,840
because the books not out on
them yet.
989
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,360
And I think they've been playing
great as a third line and the
990
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,200
fourth lines been a bunch of
nobodies.
991
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,080
But Blake Lizotte is like a
water bug out there.
992
00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,480
He is going to run and hit you.
He's going to get hit.
993
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,960
He's just a big pest.
And you need every, every good
994
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:06,800
hockey team needs a pest.
Like a Lantern fly.
995
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,120
Yes.
Like a, you know, those Lantern
996
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:10,600
flies, you hate the way they
look.
997
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,400
You just, you just want to hit
it and you go to punch it and
998
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,360
then you miss it and like, you
hurt your hand and now you're
999
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,880
even more pissed off.
Exactly like that.
1000
00:49:19,720 --> 00:49:22,200
And he's playing with Noel
Achary and Connor Dewer.
1001
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:26,480
Connor Dewer was somebody picked
up at the end of last year and
1002
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,520
you know, they're playing OK,
and I'm going to get back to the
1003
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:31,960
first line here in one second.
I just want to go over the
1004
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,720
defensive lines.
Harrison Brunicki is our is a
1005
00:49:35,720 --> 00:49:38,360
rookie who probably is going to
stay.
1006
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,040
He's been playing on the third.
He's been playing on the third
1007
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,040
line with Caleb Jones, but
Tang's been playing with Shay on
1008
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,600
the 2nd and Carlson's been
playing with Wotherspoon.
1009
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,640
Now.
OK, let me get to the difference
1010
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,600
between winning 4 to 1 and
losing 6 to 1.
1011
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,600
The difference is twofold.
The first one is Erik Carlson.
1012
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,760
Erik Carlson was playing great
in the first two games, allowing
1013
00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,120
him to skate around and do
whatever he wants and having a
1014
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,320
responsible defense been behind
him to be able to take care of
1015
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,880
any odd man breaks.
Now, there weren't any odd man
1016
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:13,200
breaks in the sixth one, but
Parker Witherspoon, he's not the
1017
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,000
guy you want to have with Eric
Carlson.
1018
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,720
He's not a great defenseman,
let's face it.
1019
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,120
And eventually when Carlson does
his stuff, he's going to fall
1020
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,000
apart.
And part of the part of the part
1021
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,920
of the falling apart is having
Witherspoon paired with Carlson.
1022
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,200
That's not going to go away
anytime soon.
1023
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,440
The other problem was Crystal
Tang got injured in that six one
1024
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:33,960
game.
So we only played about half the
1025
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,000
game.
I don't I think he's making the
1026
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,800
West Coast trip, but he's still
injured.
1027
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,560
So that could be a problem.
So we'll have to keep an eye on
1028
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:44,440
that.
I, I, I don't, I don't really
1029
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:45,640
know.
I don't, I, I don't have an
1030
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:49,240
update on that, but I'm pretty
sure he's going to end up making
1031
00:50:49,240 --> 00:50:51,440
the trip.
Here is the difference with the
1032
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,200
first line.
On the first line, you had
1033
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:58,160
Raquel Crosby and Koven and
Billy Koven and playing on the
1034
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:01,200
first line in the first two
games that they won, Koven and
1035
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:05,880
wasn't great, but it made Sidney
and and Raquel think about what
1036
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:09,120
they were doing out on the ice.
What happened in the game
1037
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,560
against the New York Rangers
that they lost at home.
1038
00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:16,720
Crosby and Raquel get so
comfortable with Russ being out
1039
00:51:16,720 --> 00:51:18,960
there.
They just do stupid shit.
1040
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:23,720
They just passed the puck
blindly through the middle like,
1041
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,600
oh, I know Rust is going to be
there and he can get to it.
1042
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:30,200
And then when he doesn't, it
goes the other way, like in a
1043
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:34,160
split second and there's just,
there's, there's no thinking
1044
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,000
going on.
And then they don't get back
1045
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,320
because, you know, they just get
lazy.
1046
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:42,200
Honestly, they're just get too
familiar with each other.
1047
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,600
And case in point, Brian Rusk
was a -, 3.
1048
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,480
And everybody on the announcer,
the announcers were like, well,
1049
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:49,880
of course you have to put him in
there.
1050
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,240
If he's healthy.
I don't think you do.
1051
00:51:52,720 --> 00:51:57,520
I think at this point, if you
got Coyvin in as a young kid and
1052
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:01,400
he needs to play on the first
line with Sydney and Raquel or I
1053
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,240
don't even care.
If you play Kendall up there on
1054
00:52:03,240 --> 00:52:07,000
the first line with with Crosby
and Raquel and you move Coy, you
1055
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,720
move Russ down to the third
line.
1056
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:12,000
You can't just automatically put
those three guys together
1057
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,040
because either Sid wants to do
it or it seems like the right
1058
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:18,120
thing to do because it really
absolutely wasn't the right
1059
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,520
thing to do.
And part of the reason they lost
1060
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:25,600
6/1 was that exactly that
familiarity with the the first
1061
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,200
line where it was like, you just
have to put it together.
1062
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,680
They haven't done anything by
the book yet.
1063
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:32,800
And I think that's part of the
problem.
1064
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,280
The other the in the the third
part of the problem is it's
1065
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:40,240
always about goaltending, right?
You know, Shiloft didn't look
1066
00:52:40,240 --> 00:52:42,480
great again when they played in
New York.
1067
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:46,920
He didn't look great when they
played in in in New York at
1068
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,160
home.
And honestly, Jarry didn't look
1069
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,720
great when they played against
the Islanders on Thursday night,
1070
00:52:51,720 --> 00:52:54,440
but he put it together in the
third period and actually played
1071
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,760
pretty solid enough to get them
the win.
1072
00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:01,960
So as always, good goaltending
will save the day and they
1073
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,120
didn't get any good goaltending
and their first line decided to
1074
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:09,320
basically just play a game that
they're just familiar with,
1075
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,040
which isn't going to be good
enough going down into the
1076
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,800
future.
That being said, this week we
1077
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,480
are headed to the West Coast,
the left coast.
1078
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:23,480
Oh no, that's right.
So that means we have a 10:30 PM
1079
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:27,720
start on Tuesday.
Thursday is a 10:00 start, so
1080
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,880
about the time the Steelers will
be hopefully wiping the shit out
1081
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:34,360
of the Cincinnati.
You can just go over and put on
1082
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:38,960
Sportsnet Pittsburgh 360 and
start watching the hockey game,
1083
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:41,600
or you can probably skip the
first period and catch the last
1084
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:48,360
two and then fortunately the
third and the last leg of that
1085
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,960
is at San Jose at 10:00.
I thought that's a Saturday
1086
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:52,880
night.
Thank God.
1087
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:57,480
Amen to that.
So at least at least the
1088
00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:59,920
schedule gods gave us a little
bit of a break.
1089
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:03,920
And there are only two games
that will will absolutely ruin
1090
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,680
my Wednesday and Fridays.
I just can't wait for this.
1091
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:11,040
I, I can't wait right now.
The excitement is palpable.
1092
00:54:11,240 --> 00:54:13,680
You can, you could taste it, you
can feel it.
1093
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,680
It's fun to watch a new team.
I'm wondering when we're on like
1094
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:23,680
Game 57 and it's in Vancouver
and it's 2:00 in the morning and
1095
00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:31,000
they lost and they lost five to
four and they're maybe close to
1096
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:34,800
being actually eliminated.
Actually Game 57's at Vegas.
1097
00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,520
OK, so close enough.
It's a 10:00 PM start.
1098
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:41,520
There you go.
So you know, like if they're if
1099
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:44,400
they're like on an amazing run
and it looks like they could
1100
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,120
make the playoffs, this is going
to be an exciting thing for you
1101
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:48,880
this.
Is going to be exciting at least
1102
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:50,800
until Thanksgiving every
everybody knows that
1103
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:54,240
Thanksgiving's the cut off day
for some damn reason it's like
1104
00:54:54,240 --> 00:54:57,600
if you're in Thanksgiving you're
going to be in it I don't
1105
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:01,240
believe that to be true but it
always it always proves me wrong
1106
00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,160
every.
Year, I just go back to the year
1107
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,480
I did the bucko's report and
said I would do it until they
1108
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,320
were.
They fell back below 500 and
1109
00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:12,080
after about 15 of them I was
like will they please fall back
1110
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:16,240
below 500?
This is different, but go ahead.
1111
00:55:16,240 --> 00:55:20,840
Two quick questions, both from
Chris Chotta, a newly forming
1112
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,240
hockey fan.
Congratulations.
1113
00:55:23,240 --> 00:55:26,240
Welcome to the club.
You can tell there's new energy.
1114
00:55:26,240 --> 00:55:28,360
Absolutely.
I mean, anytime you bring new,
1115
00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:32,080
new players up, if, if you like
to watch the game of hockey,
1116
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,280
it's fun to watch new, new
players come in, especially when
1117
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:39,360
they're playing OK hockey.
And what's my take on the kind
1118
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,600
of team the Penguins are?
A big team, a fast team, a
1119
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,920
physical team, a finesse team.
They're a young team.
1120
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,160
And that's, that's much
different than they have been in
1121
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:52,720
the past, but they're a young
team with old guys.
1122
00:55:52,720 --> 00:55:56,240
That makes sense.
The core of their team are, are
1123
00:55:56,240 --> 00:55:59,640
still old guys.
And what's really interesting is
1124
00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:01,840
you're going to have, you're
going to have that nostalgia
1125
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,480
still with, you know, Malkin
being in his last season.
1126
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:08,640
You saw it in opening night, you
know, with the big three out
1127
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:12,560
there and the whole 20 years
together never been done before
1128
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,640
in North American sports and all
that.
1129
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:18,440
I, I, I'm, I'm kind of honestly,
I'm, I'm getting, I'm getting a
1130
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,040
little tired of it.
What I will not get tired of is
1131
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:24,640
when Sid hopefully gets to the
point where he breaks Mario
1132
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:26,960
Lemieux's record.
I think that's pretty
1133
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:31,040
incredible.
You saw Nate McKinnon do it just
1134
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,440
recently in Avalanche.
It broke Joe Sackett's record.
1135
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:39,400
That's, that's how, that's how
good, like that's how good Mario
1136
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,880
Lemieux was.
Like Sidney Crosby's played for
1137
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:45,480
20 some years and he's finally
getting to the record of, of,
1138
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:51,480
of, of Mario Lemieux and he and
you know, shit, you know, he's
1139
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,880
going to Mckinnon's going to be
playing for probably another
1140
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:56,360
eight years.
He's going to, he's going to
1141
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,600
kill Sakic's record.
So it just goes to show you that
1142
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,800
there are some franchises that
you know, their superstars are
1143
00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:05,040
coming now.
Our superstars were not only
1144
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,040
now, but in the past.
And honestly, as a hockey fan, I
1145
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:12,880
feel very fortunate to have that
the last 2530 years, 40 years
1146
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:16,440
for that matter.
And I'm just hoping, put it this
1147
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:20,960
way, these guys that are coming
up now, Kendall and Koivenen and
1148
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,160
Brunicki, they're not
superstars.
1149
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:26,880
They're they're they're not of
the level of Mario Lemieux, but
1150
00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:31,560
they're good pieces to to a
puzzle that can be solved.
1151
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,440
But they're still going to have
to go get a superstar if they
1152
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:37,800
want to become the old Penguins
that we know.
1153
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:41,200
That One Cup, they're not there
yet, but it's fun to watch a
1154
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,840
team, you know, evolve.
So I would say they're an
1155
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:46,480
evolving team.
They're not a big team, they're
1156
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:48,240
not a fast team.
They're an evolving.
1157
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:50,760
That was a hell of a lot for
three games.
1158
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,200
Yeah, yeah, I'm.
Wondering what it's going to be
1159
00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:56,360
like after 77 games.
I wonder what it's going to be
1160
00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:58,560
like at 2:00 in the morning.
I can't wait.
1161
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,160
That's why I think you should do
it live, because you know the
1162
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:04,000
hardcore people, they'll be up,
they'll watch you.
1163
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,880
Yeah, they might watch you.
Give us a thumbs up or something
1164
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:10,960
in the comments if you're going
to watch HJ live after this.
1165
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:12,680
Because he doesn't do it live
right now.
1166
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,720
He does.
He does the show and then he
1167
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,040
uploads it.
But if he did it live, he
1168
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:18,400
wouldn't have to upload it to
YouTube.
1169
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:19,920
He'd only have to upload it to
Spotify.
1170
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,040
But that being said.
That's an advantage.
1171
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:25,320
HJ tomorrow night West Coast.
Tomorrow, West Coast.
1172
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:29,240
I'll be, I'll, I'll be on
probably early, probably early
1173
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:31,360
Wednesday morning.
Look, if you have any problems,
1174
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,600
you're completely on your own
because I will be sawing logs in
1175
00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:38,000
my bedroom after a blissful
cinnamon bun or something like
1176
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:39,920
that.
How does that mean?
1177
00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,880
That means I'm going to eat a
cinnamon bun and fall asleep
1178
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,880
while I'm watching TV at like
11:00.
1179
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:48,840
Why does that sound so terrible?
It just the whole thing was
1180
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:55,120
unappealing, so all right if.

me into doing these live.

You just steal my rub.
I did steal your rub.
1198
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:35,560
What's the rub, buddy?
What's the rub?

You got it If you got some merch
from us recently, we handed out

a lot of free merch.
We're going to give out some
1201
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,760
more.
It's probably especially next
1202
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,200
week since we're going to
announce the our sports sports
1203
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:49,360

pictures.
1205
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:52,800
We'll send you some of this
Nashville hot rod.
1206
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,640
Listen, this stuff is good dude.
You should open it up and just
1207
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:56,560
smell.
I did.
1208
00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:59,240
And you can, you can I I peeled
it back a little bit.
1209
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:00,920
OK.
Yeah, it is.
1210
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:02,440
It's actually really.
It does.
1211
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:04,120
It smells and it smells.
Great.
1212
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:06,000
No joke.
We're just going to keep giving
1213
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:08,480
shit away until people decide
they want to watch us, all
1214
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:10,280
right?
That's that's what everybody
1215
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:10,760
does.
What?
1216
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,640
We're doing right now is
something we call what we're
1217
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,960
watching, and what is that
Schwaber do you want to take a
1218
01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:16,960
stab at or you want me to run
through it real quick?
1219
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:20,400
Let you run through it because
you've sort of had an off show
1220
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:23,200
so when you maybe you can kind
of make it up a little bit I.
1221
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:25,400
Ever have a good show?
Ever you've?
1222
01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:29,120
Had good shows in the past.
It's been some some spots here
1223
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,480
and there.
All right, So what we're
1224
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:32,320
watching.
What is this?
1225
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:33,840
This is where we give back to
you.
1226
01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:37,560
You'll spend a lot of time
sifting through all the trailers
1227
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,520
on Netflix, Hulu, Prime, all the
streaming services.
1228
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,840
Hell, I think I pay more now per
month than my cable bill used to
1229
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:44,320
be.
Oh.
1230
01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:47,080
Yeah, yeah, 3 minutes.
Gotcha.
1231
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,680
Listen, here's what you can do.
Especially if you don't want.
1232
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,200
To watch you watch our show, you
watch to the end.
1233
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:56,080
We do all the searching for you.
We watch the shows for you.
1234
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:59,040
We tell you how we feel.
If it's bad, we tell you it's
1235
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:00,960
bad.
If it's good, we tell you it's
1236
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:02,760
good.
It doesn't have to be your
1237
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:04,640
decision.
You can look like a superstar
1238
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:08,560
and we give back to you that 45
minutes that you use watching
1239
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:11,720
those dumb trailers on this on
those streaming shows this week.
1240
01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:15,720
I'm going to go with me first
because I do have one last very
1241
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:17,920
quick segment as we exit.
I'm going to add it.
1242
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:20,640
These guys don't know about it,
but some struck me today and I'm
1243
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,200
just going to do it.
We'll see what happens it.
1244
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:25,800
Happens we we have no control
over this.
1245
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:30,600
I hope it's kid friendly.
So what what we're watching now,
1246
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:32,480
you guys have been waiting for
me to do this.
1247
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:36,360
So I think it just by saying
that you already know Orphan
1248
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:38,960
Black, I have finished the
entire series.
1249
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:43,200
That's a commitment.
I actually finished it today
1250
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:46,160
about 45 minutes before you guys
got.
1251
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:47,760
Here which one's?
Which one's the orphan?
1252
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:49,800
Orphan Black there, the one in
her belly.
1253
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:52,520
They're technical.
Technically all orphans.
1254
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:57,040
This was this show ran this.
This show?
1255
01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:02,400
Yeah, This show ran from 2012
through 2017.
1256
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,720
It was on AMC, but it is now on
Netflix.
1257
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,240
It's played by Orphan Black.
The main character is 1.
1258
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:18,320
Is is like one actress, Tatiana
Maslane Maslaney.
1259
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:23,520
I think she plays like 7 or 8
different versions of herself.
1260
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,640
She's a clone, so it gets into.
This like dark?
1261
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,880
And basically it's a whole thing
about eugenics.
1262
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:33,800
And.
How there's this secret eugenics
1263
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,720
program and like the
government's involved and
1264
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:40,360
corporations are involved and
scientists are involved and they
1265
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,840
clone all these women and then
they also clone all these men.
1266
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:47,880
And it's an evolution of how
these women, what they realize
1267
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:50,200
is that their DNA has been
patented.
1268
01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:54,520
So they are actually owned by
this corporation and so are the
1269
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,760
men.
And there's.
1270
01:02:56,760 --> 01:03:00,480
Troubling there's.
A lot of intrigue, Yes, there's
1271
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:02,160
a lot of intrigue.
It's really good.
1272
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:08,200
The acting is tremendous.
And the lead actress, Tatiana,
1273
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:13,280
is really unbelievable.
I mean she, she, she plays at
1274
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:16,320
least she plays through the
entire five year series
1275
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:21,760
constantly in every show, 5
versions of herself
1276
01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:24,160
convincingly.
I hope she got paid millions.
1277
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:25,840
And then?
5 orphans.
1278
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,280
There are no.
There's 238 of them and.
1279
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,240
I hope we don't get to meet all
of them.
1280
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:34,520
You don't, but you you do meet a
a decent amount of them.
1281
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:37,920
How many seasons?
How good What or five?
1282
01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:42,480
It was, it was really good first
two years, excellent. 3rd and
1283
01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:46,120
4th year it it kind of started
to level off a little bit.
1284
01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:49,000
So going into the 5th year I
wasn't going to review it season
1285
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:50,360
by season.
I wanted to finish the whole
1286
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,440
thing.
Going into the 5th year I had
1287
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:57,560
high hopes but I was worried.
But it ended really, really
1288
01:03:57,560 --> 01:03:59,280
well.
Really.
1289
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:02,800
Well, yeah, yeah.
So if you guys and and I'm a fan
1290
01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:06,240
for you guys out there listening
and watching who either stopping
1291
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:08,200
by for the first time, please
subscribe.
1292
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:15,920
I hope or he got high apple pie
in the sky hopes.
1293
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:17,520
OK, cool.
So.
1294
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,360
Anytime you're feeling though.
Am I going to hear the whole
1295
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:22,680
song?
No, no, that's enough.
1296
01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:28,280
So sometimes this show was
actually really very, very
1297
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:32,280
popular at the time.
And what I noticed is 2012.
1298
01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:35,440
Think about the political
climate, if you can remember it.
1299
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:40,760
By 2017, the show had had gone a
little bit more woke.
1300
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:45,200
A little bit more.
Woke now it's if you're, if
1301
01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,680
you're not a fan of an agenda,
They, they, they, but it was
1302
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:54,080
very subtle because it wasn't
the, the madness from 2016 on,
1303
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,200
but 2017.
You know, they're filming in
1304
01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:59,600
2016 anyway.
It, it, it was very, very
1305
01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:03,720
popular at the time.
I actually like to wait on some
1306
01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:06,400
really popular shows.
I like to give them three or
1307
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,320
four years before I watch them
because I want to see if they
1308
01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,760
have.
If I watch this now, will is it
1309
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:14,000
good enough that I'll be like,
yeah, I would have watched it
1310
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:15,440
back?
So you have to restraint.
1311
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:17,560
You have restraint, you hold
back.
1312
01:05:17,560 --> 01:05:19,360
You're like, he's like, no.
I won't touch.
1313
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:21,080
I won't.
Gonna hold it back.
1314
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:23,680
That's like a bourbon I ain't
touching for five.
1315
01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:24,760
Years.
Oh my God, I'm.
1316
01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:29,800
Putting that one on the shelf.
I do like that brown black
1317
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:32,640
Orphan Black on Netflix.
Listen guys I highly recommend
1318
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,400
it 2 thumbs up from me.
I think you guys would like it
1319
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:40,200
so give it a whirl.
The grand schwa beanie is
1320
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:42,480
watching something.
I wanted to watch this.
1321
01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:44,240
I haven't yet.
I haven't.
1322
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:46,960
This is also on Netflix.
Go ahead.
1323
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:49,560
The madness.
I love that guy.
1324
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,080
Yeah.
Coleman, Domingo from Fear The
1325
01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:53,440
Walking Dead.
Walking Dead?
1326
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,600
Yep.
Yeah, so he's who's the star of
1327
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,720
this one.
And it was really good.
1328
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,000
I mean, it was just a complete
surprise to me.
1329
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,920
Look, I I was, you know, I was
going through those trailers
1330
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:07,560
like we do for our folks and I
was like, well, this seems good.
1331
01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:09,240
Good.
When am I'm like, I feel like I
1332
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,280
never seen it or nobody said
anything to me about it.
1333
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:15,440
It's just a one season or it's
it's somewhere between 8:00 and
1334
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,040
10:00 episodes.
So you can get through it pretty
1335
01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:18,960
quick.
What is the madness about?
1336
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:22,920
What the madness is about is
it's it's it's actually really
1337
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:27,200
kind of neat.
It's like, so Coleman Domingo is
1338
01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:36,320
a guy who has been like a guest,
a guest on like CNN News and
1339
01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:38,640
they're thinking about giving
him his own show.
1340
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:43,360
OK.
And so he's a real like left
1341
01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:44,360
guy.
Gotcha.
1342
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:48,960
OK.
And, you know, so he basically
1343
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,960
goes on TV and he says a bunch
of controversial things, you
1344
01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:54,120
know, that get, you know,
stirred up.
1345
01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,520
Conservative people get stirred
up by it, right?
1346
01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:01,160
So, so anyway, he's just, you
know, like he's, you know, he's
1347
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,920
also writing a book, you know,
and he goes away for the weekend
1348
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:08,320
just to get some quiet, rents
this cabin, right?
1349
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:16,440
And then turns out that the
power goes out and there was a
1350
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:19,080
guy who had pulled up to him the
other day and he's like, hey,
1351
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,760
you're the guy on TV, aren't
you?
1352
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:23,320
And he's like, that's what I saw
in.
1353
01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:24,640
Yeah.
And he's like, yeah.
1354
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:26,480
And he's just like, hey, well,
you know, if you ever need
1355
01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:28,440
anything, I'm just right down
the road, right.
1356
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:34,840
Turns out that this guy is like,
the biggest guy of, like, Aryan
1357
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:37,680
Nation, OK.
And.
1358
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:40,360
And there's a whole bunch of
other stuff.
1359
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:43,640
There's a whole bunch of other
stuff going on in terms of like
1360
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:48,440
what big company is sort of
behind the scenes, you know,
1361
01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:51,360
feeding them money and stuff
like that.
1362
01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:55,080
And, you know, there were some
disagreements between him and
1363
01:07:55,080 --> 01:08:00,840
one of the CE OS and basically
he gets murdered.
1364
01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:08,240
And it just so happens that
Coleman Domingo ends up because
1365
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:11,720
the, you know, the power went
out, he goes down there and then
1366
01:08:11,720 --> 01:08:16,479
he sees the murderers, right?
And so he, you know, he runs, he
1367
01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:20,319
escapes, he gets away.
And now they've sort of changed
1368
01:08:20,319 --> 01:08:22,960
their plan to, well, we should
frame him.
1369
01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,040
He's the perfect guy to do it.
Right.
1370
01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:26,000
Right.
Right.
1371
01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:26,479
Right.
Right.
1372
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:28,479
Yeah.
And so he's kind of like on the
1373
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:32,000
run and, you know, and trying to
find his way out of it the whole
1374
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:33,319
time.
It was really cool.
1375
01:08:33,319 --> 01:08:34,319
It was good.
Well done.
1376
01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:35,160
It was good.
Yeah.
1377
01:08:35,279 --> 01:08:37,120
You'd really like.
I think you both really like one
1378
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:37,880
season.
Yeah.
1379
01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:39,439
One season.
That's right up loudly.
1380
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:41,279
And I love him as an actor.
Yeah.
1381
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,439
He's a real good actor.
Holman, Domingo, Grant

bottle of this Nashville Hot Rub

from a friend of ours out on the
eastern side of the state at
1388

Curly's Comfort Food.
This is some great stuff, let me
1389
01:09:05,399 --> 01:09:06,680
tell you.
Yeah, that's mine.
1390
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:08,200
Just don't.
Forget I know it's yours.
1391
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:12,160
I've already tried it.
Like we're little kids.
1392
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:13,640
I know it's, I've already tried
it.
1393
01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:14,920
It's fine, It's fine.
It's.
1394
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:19,439
Fine, All right, HJ, I'm.
Branching out on you.
1395
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:22,600
I'm kind of afraid of this one a
little bit, yeah.
1396
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:24,840
It's not something to be afraid
of, it's just the debate.
1397
01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:27,319
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
I mean, you know, we don't like
1398
01:09:27,319 --> 01:09:31,920
debate here.
Yeah, I mean, it's the Doctor
1399
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:34,600
DAF show.
It's you know, you know how you
1400
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:35,439
know is.
That what it is.
1401
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,040
Yeah, well, and, and OK, just
what's it on?
1402
01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:39,800
Is it on YouTube?
It's on YouTube, right?
1403
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,520
You know, you're on YouTube and
these things pop up.
1404
01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:46,439
You're just like feel like,
like, is this really what I
1405
01:09:46,439 --> 01:09:48,760
think it is?
Is this, is this like really in
1406
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:50,399
depth?
This was like an hour and a half
1407
01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:53,279
half of the bait so.
You watched the whole thing.
1408
01:09:53,279 --> 01:09:54,360
You did.
You had I.
1409
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:55,880
Had to watch the whole thing,
right?
1410
01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:57,560
So I'm like, OK, an hour and a
half worth it.
1411
01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,240
No, I didn't sit through all of
it because they have like 5
1412
01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:02,360
topics they go through, you know
it.
1413
01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:05,200
And it's always, it's always
the, you know, the conservative
1414
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:07,640
and the liberal topics, you
know, it's usually, you know,
1415
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:10,400
usually is about, you know,
being woke.
1416
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:14,120
Is it good, you know, Trump
administration good or bad?
1417
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:17,560
You know, and the thing that I
liked about this was, you know,
1418
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:22,600
you, you typically think of, you
know, black women not as
1419
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,440
conservative women necessary,
right?
1420
01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:27,720
You don't, right, But plenty
are, but plenty are, right,
1421
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:29,000
right.
So it's like, it's always
1422
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,000
interesting.
Then the, you know, the the
1423
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,240
white women on the other side,
it's like, are they really going
1424
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,160
to go after, you know, these
black women?
1425
01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:37,880
Because as liberals, it's like
kind of you're not allowed to
1426
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:39,400
touch that.
It's like you're not allowed to,
1427
01:10:39,440 --> 01:10:43,640
you're not allowed to, you know,
attack black women, you know,
1428
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:47,760
so, but the debate was actually
very good.
1429
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:50,680
Like they, they both like you
could tell, like the
1430
01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:53,560
conservative, the issues, the
conservative issues versus the
1431
01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:56,400
liberal issues were really what
they focused in on.
1432
01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:59,240
They weren't, they didn't like
attack each other.
1433
01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:04,320
So as far as the debate goes, I
was very happy to say like these
1434
01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:08,840
seven women there, there were 43
conservative and and four
1435
01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:10,680
liberal just happened to be that
way.
1436
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:15,440
It, it wasn't like a gang upper
anyway, But I just think in
1437
01:11:15,440 --> 01:11:19,800
today's culture that if we can
sit down and have these debates,
1438
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:22,560
and that's why I watched it
mostly because I was like, can
1439
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:26,440
this actually be a civil debate?
And it, and it was, I mean, I
1440
01:11:26,440 --> 01:11:29,120
don't know how much of it they
cut out, to be honest with you.
1441
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:32,000
I don't know how much like if it
got really heated, like they
1442
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:35,440
just cut it out, you never know.
But I figured in an hour and a
1443
01:11:35,440 --> 01:11:38,240
half you would get the gist of
what the debate was about.
1444
01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:42,400
And I'm happy to say that it was
worth my time.
1445
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:45,560
And if you're into debates, like
I can't debate with my wife
1446
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:48,440
because, you know, I tend to be
a little bit more conservative.
1447
01:11:48,440 --> 01:11:50,840
I wouldn't consider myself a
conservative, but more
1448
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:52,680
conservative than my wife, who's
liberal.
1449
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,080
She will not have a debate with
me about this stuff.
1450
01:11:55,440 --> 01:11:58,840
So I have to find something on
the Internet where I hear these
1451
01:11:58,840 --> 01:12:02,400
topics being debated.
And that's how I have debates,
1452
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:07,200
not with myself.
So what if you want to be with
1453
01:12:07,440 --> 01:12:09,360
yourself?
So what you're saying is you
1454
01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:12,360
can't talk to your wife about
anything so you have to turn to
1455
01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:16,040
YouTube?
And it works and and it it was a
1456
01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:17,760
very it was an excellent.
Expected.
1457
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:23,360
It was, it was an excellent,
excellent outlet for, you know,
1458
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,640
debate on the issues between
liberals and conservative.
1459
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:31,280
Nobody got punched, nobody got
thrown off the stage, nobody
1460
01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:35,640
walked, nobody walked out.
It was just a good debate on, on
1461
01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:37,960
the issues.
And I, I think it really does
1462
01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:40,480
highlight the differences
between everybody.
1463
01:12:40,480 --> 01:12:44,120
And I'm hoping that by having
dialogue and debates like that,
1464
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:47,360
and they have a lot of them on
that Doctor Daf show, it's just
1465
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,240
something that I picked up.
It's not like something I've
1466
01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:50,680
been watching for a very long
time.
1467
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:52,920
It just happened to be there and
I happen to watch it.
1468
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,120
I would probably watch some of
the other ones though.
1469
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:58,040
But that one, I would say if
you're on YouTube and you're in
1470
01:12:58,040 --> 01:13:01,120
that sort of thing, absolutely
worth your time to check out at
1471
01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:06,560
Doctor Daf.

Hey, Brad, if you're thinking
about coming out next season,
1494
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:11,760
you know there's this thing
called the draft.
1495
01:14:11,760 --> 01:14:12,880
Yeah.
And we're going to be doing a
1496
01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:16,080
lot with that, a lot with that.
It's, it's, believe it or not,
1497
01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:18,680
October.
It's, it's starting to approach
1498
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:20,920
crunch time.
So hopefully in the next 4
1499
01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:23,320
weeks.
You saw the NFL stuff put out
1500
01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:25,960
there, put out their stuff.
Oh, and now all over social
1501
01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:27,360
media, everybody's announcing
it.
1502
01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,680
So everybody's going to be a
part of this.
1503
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:31,200
We're going to be a part of it
as well.
1504
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:33,360
I'm going to leave you this
night with this tonight with
1505
01:14:33,360 --> 01:14:34,840
this guys.
This is a new segment.
1506
01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:36,240
I'm I'm going to call it.
Think about it.
1507
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:38,000
We got a whole segment.
I thought we were saying
1508
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:39,240
goodbye.
Yeah, we are going to say
1509
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:40,320
goodbye.
Think about.
1510
01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:41,400
It play the music.
This isn't.
1511
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:42,600
Don't do it.
Think about it.
1512
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:44,600
I I just saw.
This help us.
1513
01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:48,800
I saw this on and it is not.
God boy, help us.
1514
01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:50,560
But I just want you to read
this.
1515
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:53,920
This is from an Instagram
account called History.
1516
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:55,600
Feels I have to give them
credit.
1517
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:57,760
History.
Feels Think about It, Think
1518
01:14:57,760 --> 01:15:03,080
About It in 1952 claims that
smoking caused cancer caused
1519
01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:07,040
Kent's cigarettes to come out
with an asbestos filter to
1520
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:10,400
protect its smokers.
That was really smart.
1521
01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:13,880
Any thoughts on that?
I think they are out of business
1522
01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:14,920
now.
Any thought?
1523
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:19,080
Yep.
That's about it.
1524
01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:21,000
It'll be the vaping.
That's about it.
1525
01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:28,480
Schwaber has.
It's a fail, a big.
1526
01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:30,000
Fail.
I just want you to think about
1527
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:31,800
you.
Tried something and it's a fail.
1528
01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:33,920
That's okay.
I just want you to think about
1529
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:37,080
that, I mean.
The FBA when you need them.
1530
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:40,680
All right, listen guys, we're
going to wrap the show up right
1531
01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:43,880
now before and Mike Lawrence
actually says that was
1532
01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:45,000
brilliant.
Exactly.
1533
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:47,360

you.
