He that he made a fatal mistake by allowing that
harness on his last tour to pull his parachute pants
tight enough that you could see the full outline of
his junk.

And I mean he made the statue of David look
like shack, you know.

Splinter Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning.

Speaker 4 (01:11):
Chevin Gorman hanging with U year from the trip this morning,
and we got our Mistackle segment before you coming up
a little bit later where we'll go through some of
the stories from Sunday that we didn't get to yet.
And there are so many this is going to bleed
over into Wednesday. I think because there's a lot going on,
a lot of side stories. I mean, the Mark Sanchez
one alone, you could just spend you know, an hour

(01:31):
on and we so much is going to come out
about that.

Speaker 6 (01:37):
One to six years in prison.

Possibly, but he's not going to do anytime.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
I don't know if he does.

Butt Fumbler is nothing nicknamed you want to have in jail.

Speaker 5 (01:48):
What do you got?

Speaker 6 (01:49):
Who's this hour?

Speaker 7 (01:50):
Brought to you by a Better Call SI Mostly cloudy
and not as warm today, showers and a high of
seventy two.

Speaker 6 (01:56):
Ninety nine year old Dick Van.

Speaker 7 (01:58):
Dyke stays pretty lighthearted about his own mortality. He's going
to be turning one hundred years old on December the thirteenth,
and during a fan event on Sunday, he joked, it'd
be pretty funny if I didn't make it.

Speaker 5 (02:11):
I mean, he's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
I do love him.

Speaker 7 (02:14):
Dick added quote, I bragged sometimes about how I made
it to one hundred, and the truth is, if I
had known I was going to live this long, I
would have taken better care of myself.

Speaker 6 (02:22):
And it's frustrating because I don't know what I did right.
Other than my wife. I didn't do anything right.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Power of the brain.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
That dude when he was young, was told he had
crippling arthritis at a young age and would never be
able to move basically like anybody else without pain, and
he just attacked it with movement and then became known
for his dancing.

Speaker 8 (02:47):
I was just gonna say, dancing is what's kept that
guy alif I really believe that.

Speaker 9 (02:51):
Yeah, that's why I tried to dance kicking penguins.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 6 (02:58):
His wife, Arlene, by the way, is fifty.

Speaker 7 (03:01):
Four years old and he's ninety and he is ninety nine,
about to be one hundred.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
She's a deadhead too, she really Yeah, she had a
birthday party for him and they like they had been
grateful dead.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
Science and stuff.

Speaker 6 (03:15):
What sounds like fun?

Speaker 3 (03:16):
Good for him, Yeah whatever, it's awesome.

Speaker 6 (03:19):
Yeah, all right.

Speaker 7 (03:20):
If you're an actor, you show up on a movie
set to make art, not friends.

Speaker 6 (03:25):
Sometimes they take it a little too far.

Speaker 7 (03:27):
Here are ten actors who were totally hated by the
rest of their cast. This one's pretty famous. I feel
like we've talked about it before. Jim Carrey Man on
the Moon. Yeah, and this is whenever he played Andy Kaufman.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
The whole Methad acting thing where he just wouldn't break
character and was super annoying and brought out all the
worst parts of Andy onto the set.

Speaker 5 (03:53):
But he also apparently.

Speaker 8 (03:57):
Channeled him in a way that Andy his family felt
like they got to talk to their loved one some
more spooky.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, that's weird stuff.

Speaker 7 (04:10):
Mike Myers in The Cat in the Hat, which came
out in two thousand and three.

Speaker 5 (04:15):
Seeing it, kids loved it.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
I heard he was a nightmare on the Love Guru. Also,
why just because he was annoying or yeah the movie
was terrible and that movie was terrible.

Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yeah, that movie was terrible.

Speaker 7 (04:26):
But in the Cat had apparently he was controlling, humorless
and prone to tantrums.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
He had that reputation really all the time.

Speaker 5 (04:36):
He was because the amount of time he had to
spend in makeup for that character.

Speaker 6 (04:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:42):
Did you did Edie like that one?

Speaker 8 (04:44):
Uh? She watched it.

Speaker 7 (04:45):
I don't remember whether she liked it or not. It
wasn't a second viewing, No, you know, it was just.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
Kind of like, kids loved that one.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
His reputation was not great amongst other performers the whole
his whole career.

Speaker 6 (04:57):
Really, Yeah, even Austin powers or anything like that.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, he was. He's that's who he is.
He's like controlling, you know, crazy, you know, as funny
as he is, everything is super serious to him.

Speaker 6 (05:10):
You know, no kidding.

Speaker 5 (05:11):
You know.

Speaker 7 (05:11):
You brought up what he spent in makeup, and that
reminds me like the Jim Carrey Grinch thing that he
talked about, like that being like completely miserable and making
him deeply depressed. Yeah, also his face and what kind
of actor he is and his ability to control so

(05:32):
much of you know, his his facial expressions and relaying
a character and then to cover him up with that
much prosthetic makeup, Like he was deeply, deeply depressed, and
it was really difficult for him to do the movie.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
I would imagine just having your pores covered every day, Yeah,
it would that would just be suffocating.

Speaker 8 (05:52):
But he was so he was so animated with his
facial expressions that he could make faces through all that
make up.

Speaker 4 (06:02):
Oh, there's nobody like him. Nobody like him. No, And
there's no way that he would come out and be
just like a normal person, like, Oh, he's the best.
He's so fun to hang around with, Like nobody with
that kind of level of talent is capable of being normal,
and that he's.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
Like a really avant garde kind of artist.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Yeah, it's like Daniel da Lewis. You just you know,
you can't go get a beer with him and talk football.

Speaker 6 (06:23):
You know what I think.

Speaker 7 (06:24):
So Wesley Snipes makes the list for Blade Trinity, which
was two thousand and four. He was unhappy that his
character was being sidelined in favor of franchise newcomers Ryan
Reynolds and Jessica Biel.

Speaker 6 (06:41):
So apparently he made the set really.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Miserable to get Jessica Bile to do that.

Speaker 7 (06:47):
So legend has it that in one scene, Snipes was
supposed to open his eyes, but he refused because he
was having a fight with the director, so they gave
him cgi eyeballs.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
That's awesome. I hope they were like Betty Boop once
fluttery eyelashes.

Speaker 7 (07:12):
This is disappointing, but I guess I've heard he's difficult
at times. Christian Bale American Psycho.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
He got I think unfairly.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
Categorizes that in the because of the one piece of
audio that leaked from the Batman set. I get it, though,
Like they were so dialed in and then somebody's just
like being careless and screwed up the whole shot. And
I get him going on apparently apologize to the person.

Speaker 8 (07:39):
But that was an epic rant too, wasn't it. I
can't remember the details of it, but when he's talking
about something somebody trashing the lights.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
They were, Yeah, they were like moving stuff while they
were taking a doing a take, and it made a
noise that ruined the take, which.

Speaker 7 (07:57):
I feel badly that he got docksed for that because
I'm sure that there's plenty of occasions in which actors
lose it, but if you had a really.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
Good take, yeah, heat of the moment too, and it's
just like, I get it.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
I think you're like that. If you like that with
your waitress, then you're insufferable.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
But if in the heat of creating you lose it
for a second and then make it right with the
person later, I don't think that that's a big deal.

Speaker 5 (08:21):
Yeah, those are some of my favorite movies too.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
The Batman Chris Nolan.

Speaker 5 (08:27):
Yeah, the ones that he's in that trilogy is unbelievable.

Speaker 7 (08:30):
Agreed, what sounds like an American psycho. He was just
he kind of rubbed people the wrong way because he
was just as intense as when the cameras stopped rolling
For that film as well.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
I love that movie too.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
It's so good.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
Are they going to remake it?

Speaker 7 (08:45):
They are going to remake it, and I don't know
why because not enough time has passed.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
I used to always say Dorsea when people like, what
do you want to go to dinner? Would always like Dorsey, Yeah, reservations.
The whole Huey Lewis scene is great. I mean he's
he's really good in that.

Speaker 5 (09:02):
As he's putting on the trench coat.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
He got fired too, like he wasn't They didn't want
him and they got rid of him, and then he
brought him back.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
Oh really, Yeah, he fought to be in that. He
was really good in.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
It, so good.

Speaker 7 (09:16):
Richard Pryor in Blue Collar nineteen seventy eight, Paul Schrader
his addiction in paranoia were making the set very toxic.

Speaker 5 (09:25):
And he can't even imagine when he was in the
throes of addiction.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
And it was with Yafat Cooto and Harvey Kaitel.

Speaker 4 (09:31):
I think in that movie those are his co stars,
and those dudes are like all business and Richard would
be gone doing coke for a day. But he would
always fight with directors too. He was famous for that.
He was famous for like screaming at people on the
set and he.

Speaker 6 (09:44):
Pulled a gun on the director. So that'll do it.

Speaker 5 (09:46):
Oh yeah, that's not cool.

Speaker 6 (09:49):
Cocaine, Shia Labuff or Shia Labouf Fury.

Speaker 4 (09:57):
This is how you know he's not a good enough
actor because nobody ever pronounces his name the same way.

Speaker 6 (10:02):
And no one cares whether or not.

Speaker 5 (10:04):
He's great in Fury.

Speaker 6 (10:05):
Well, he went full method for that film and shower.

Speaker 7 (10:11):
He cut his face, he had an actual tooth pulled,
and he refused to shower.

Speaker 5 (10:18):
Yeah, I mean he looks filthy that entire movie.

Speaker 3 (10:21):
I've never seen that one. Uh.

Speaker 5 (10:22):
If you like.

Speaker 8 (10:23):
Tanks, that's really big tank one for you. Yeah, they're
inside a tank. The whole movie is inside of a tank.
If you're claustrophobic, maybe not so much.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
How do I not know this big tank? Oh yeah,
I'm in.

Speaker 5 (10:36):
No, it's it's really good.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Brad Pitt, shoot dead guy, I know that's that one.

Speaker 4 (10:40):
Mime is always out there from that movie, right, He's
like sticking out of the tank pointing at a guy.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
He's like, shoot that man or something like that.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (10:50):
Jared Leto on the set of Suicide Squad that was
twenty sixteen, and he really wanted the rest of the
cast to be freaked out by his patrol of the joker.

Speaker 6 (11:01):
So apparently he was sending.

Speaker 7 (11:03):
Them gifts like condoms, bullets and dead animals.

Speaker 5 (11:08):
Wait what?

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Did he also blame his penchant for courting underage women
on being the creepy character from that character?

Speaker 8 (11:19):
Yeah, I mean dead Animals is definitely ratcheting it up
on a level.

Speaker 7 (11:24):
I think I do remember hearing that story in real time.

Speaker 6 (11:29):
Is Viola Davis and Suicide Squad?

Speaker 3 (11:32):
Correct?

Speaker 7 (11:32):
I feel like she was in uh if I'm if
I'm correct that that's the right actress. I think that
she had said that he sent her like a dead rat.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
And she's like classically trained. Yeah, just like I.

Speaker 6 (11:45):
Will not be dealing right with this.

Speaker 7 (11:48):
Bert Reynolds on the set of Boogie Nights Famous.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
Yeah, he thought he was so above it. I mean,
pta wasn't a guy yet. You know, it's like one
of his first big movies. Nevertheless, the greatest, Yeah, the
greatest story ever.

Speaker 6 (12:06):
But no, you haven't right.

Speaker 7 (12:08):
It was just that he thought it was such you know,
the role was beneath him, and that was truly how
he treated everyone.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
But it did earn him an Oscar nomination.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
And then he was furious that he didn't win.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
He was like, I mean, he was just a disagreeable
guy for the last you know, a couple decades of
his life. He was one of those people that, like
when he peaked, he never understood that you don't get
to peak forever, and he thought he should have been
treated like he was at peak. Burt Reynolds the rest
of his career. It's like, well, you did Evening Shade
for the last five years. You're not the bandit anymore.

Speaker 8 (12:42):
But you can under like I at least understand where
he's coming from. Like he's a he transitioned from old
Hollywood into the new era and he's one of the
like a throwback star where he probably always felt disrespected.

Speaker 3 (12:58):
But that's why he's great in that role, because that's
who that guy is.

Speaker 8 (13:01):
Yeah, that is who that guy is. By the way,
Viola Davis was in Suicide.

Speaker 7 (13:04):
Squad all right, right, Uh, Lindsay Lohan in The Canyons,
which is not a film I'm familiar with.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
I know of it because she It was a big
deal at the time because she went topless.

Speaker 3 (13:18):
Okay, it was like a big story.

Speaker 7 (13:19):
It makes a little more sense. I'm looking it up
in Canons. James Dean was in it, which was the
guy that was an actor, but he was a porn.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Star first, yes, and then he got canceled.

Speaker 7 (13:31):
And then he got canceled. Gus van Zant is the
director on it.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
Then he got canceled.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Waitity, we're just on a roll.

Speaker 7 (13:45):
She does seem to have snapped out of it now
she's having this full resurgence and new face.

Speaker 6 (13:52):
Maybe that helped.

Speaker 4 (13:53):
Dude, what is that new technique that all the stars
are using that is making them all like crazy young
looking and like it is a perfect facelift and neck
lift or something, and they all look ten years younger immediately.

Speaker 8 (14:08):
I don't know, but you can apparently undo, but imagine
the points you get gas free for the rest of
your life.

Speaker 5 (14:20):
But no, but she had bad plastic surgery.

Speaker 8 (14:23):
This is what I don't understand is that it's not
just that she got good plastic surgery, it's that she
had bad plastic surgery before.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
That and then fixed it. What's you name?

Speaker 4 (14:36):
Renee Zellweger should probably do that one. And Meg Ryan.
Meg Ryan had a real bad one, oh yeah, fish
hook lip situation.

Speaker 8 (14:48):
And who is the other one that was? Oh god,
she was a ninety star incredibly hot. Uh, I'm blanking
on her name.

Speaker 6 (14:58):
Think about what she was in.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
And Jennifer or working girl Meg Griffith oh Man, Yeah,
Dakota Johnson's mom.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
Yeah that Melanie Griffith, Melanie grif.

Speaker 10 (15:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (15:16):
But we knew, we knew what you meant.

Speaker 7 (15:19):
We've made that Meg Ryan and Melanie Griffin into the
same woman.

Speaker 5 (15:24):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 8 (15:24):
There was maybe a period of my life where I
thought they were the same person.

Speaker 5 (15:28):
It's plastic surgery.

Speaker 7 (15:29):
There, but it is insane whatever because that Chris Jenner
just got a lot of ink because she basically got
that same surgery. People were dragging her because she called
it aging gracefully and everybody's like, that's it, that's aging
rich is what that is? Because that's really the difference

(15:51):
is it's not about like it's about whether you're rich
or not. That's that's all that is. Do you have
the money to do this? Because I also don't know
what surgery is, but It is incredible.

Speaker 5 (16:03):
It's crazy that it exists.

Speaker 6 (16:05):
It's yeah, we're.

Speaker 5 (16:06):
Going to find out.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
It's like a literal faust bargain and they're like signing
their souls away.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
It's substance.

Speaker 6 (16:12):
She looks like Kim She.

Speaker 8 (16:14):
Looks exactly like her kids. It's weird, like as young
as her kids. Very strange.

Speaker 6 (16:22):
Yeah, also give it to me.

Speaker 11 (16:24):
You know, I'm sitting here thinking about how if they
could morph two people together in plastic surgery and turn
Meg Ryan and Melanie Griffin into make Griffith. And this
is where my brain is going, based on being here
all morning, is like, imagine if they could do Justin
Timberlake and genuine together. Justin was Tryinglake, Yeah, he was.
He was genuinely trying.

Speaker 7 (16:45):
Meg Griffin is a character on the face and Bill
Murray Murray in Charlie's Angels. Apparently it was so antagonistic
that Loulou reportedly threw punches at him.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
She whipped his ass.

Speaker 5 (17:04):
I heard.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (17:05):
He was replaced by Bernie Mack for the sequel, and
apparently nobody was sad about it.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
He's another one man. It's one of those guys that
is catch him on the wrong day. He is just
not fun to be around.

Speaker 8 (17:18):
And never I mean, maybe the best potential candidate for
a facelift, but we'll never get it.

Speaker 4 (17:27):
He gave an interview though, where he talked about that
that that was the bane of his existence is that
young girls wouldn't find him attractive anymore.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
It's like, dude, you are seventy five.

Speaker 6 (17:36):
Day the carousel stops.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
Like this is why he's so good and lost in translation.

Speaker 5 (17:40):
I know Mickey Rourke.

Speaker 8 (17:42):
Oh dude, another guy who had surgery and it destroyed
his face.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
He was like, make me look like Simba.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
Yeah, make me look like a cat person.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
It's so weird.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
Well, I think that because plastic surgery used to truly
be putting plastics in your face, and I think the
plastic surgery now is not that. Like I think what
they're doing to Chris Jenner's face and with it, yeah,
I don't think that's what.

Speaker 8 (18:10):
They're pulling your skin into a ponytail and tucking it
behind your ears.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
I don't know, man, there's something. There's something that's going on,
but we're all going to have it soon.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
I'm sure.

Speaker 5 (18:19):
Really, I'll never forget.

Speaker 8 (18:21):
One of the funniest lines Harlan Williams in his stand
up one of the first times I saw him in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 5 (18:28):
He said, I live.

Speaker 8 (18:29):
Out in Hollywood and I had the plastic surgery that
everybody's getting. Yeah, I had my ears enlarged in my
gin removed.

Speaker 7 (18:47):
It sounds like FX is ordered a pilot for Very
Young Frankenstein, which draws inspiration from nineteen seventy four's Young Frankenstein.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
So what's the very and when they reanimate a kid
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (19:06):
Zach Gallop and Akis is in it, and uh he,
I guess is going to be doctor Flankenstein.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Oh that's I mean, that's interesting that he's involved in it.
Might not be terrible.

Speaker 6 (19:19):
Te Who else is in it? Spencer House from Space Force,
isn't it?

Speaker 4 (19:24):
Nobody watched that show. Nobody was in it with Steve
Carrell and nobody watched Space Force.

Speaker 6 (19:32):
Uh yeah, I tried to watch it. I couldn't get
into it at all. How do you say his last name? Carrie?

Speaker 5 (19:38):
Is it Elis?

Speaker 4 (19:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (19:40):
From The Princess Bride. He's in it apparently too.

Speaker 5 (19:44):
I think it's Elis.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
Elis like like saying Ellis with a like a speech,
like a baby Kelly Elis.

Speaker 11 (19:53):
Who was Billy Crystal's characters the.

Speaker 7 (20:01):
His name, it wasn't brilliant yet. Yeah, Peter Cook is
the actor who does I don't know, uh, Camal and
then Johnny isn't it too? So like there's actually like
some kind of big stars in it. And usually I'm
allergic to these kind of things because I don't want
you messing with the things that I.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
Love classics and as we say, comedy sequels just do
not work as a rule.

Speaker 6 (20:23):
Yeah, but this would be a prequel.

Speaker 7 (20:26):
So there is not a word yet as to when
they would launch this. But uh, while details are thin,
it does sound like they're going to go ahead and
move forward with it.

Speaker 3 (20:39):
I don't know is Melbrooks involved.

Speaker 7 (20:43):
It doesn't say whether he's involved or not, but I
would think he would have to bless it just because
of the ip of it involved in the Spaceballs.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
Yes, yeah, he's he has to be close to one hundred. Again.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
The History of the World sequel, the series that they
put was just not good, despite having like a lot
of really talented funny people, just wasn't good. There's something
about that, like sometimes you just use up a comedic idea.

Speaker 5 (21:12):
Oh yeah, it has its shelf life.

Speaker 6 (21:15):
Yeah, Melbrooks is ninety nine.

Speaker 5 (21:17):
It's crazy. Oh my god, Dick Van Dyke, Wow, who's
going to live longer?

Speaker 7 (21:22):
Well, let's see, mel Brooks would have to make it
to June twenty eighth to make it to one hundred.

Speaker 5 (21:28):
Laugh and dance telling you right now.

Speaker 7 (21:31):
Yeah, comedy keeps you young. That's why Paul Rudd says
he looks so good for his age. But it's also
probably the Hollywood genetics help that also do mostly cloudy
not it's warm today, showers and a high of seventies.

Speaker 4 (21:44):

Speaker 3 (22:28):
DVE Sports all Right, Kevin Gormt filline for Pursuit with
your Sports.

Speaker 5 (22:33):
This morning on DVE.

Speaker 11 (22:35):
CAP Penguins open the season tonight at the New York Rangers.
And as much as the storyline has been about Sidney
Crosby of Guinea, Melkon Chrystal Tang playing their twentieth season together,
first trio to do that in NHL history, and about
the Penguins having five rookies on their roster, including teenagers
Harrison Bruneck and first round pick Ben Kendall, first to

(22:58):
do that since Crystal Tang and Jordon Stall in two
thousand and six, I think the cool storyline is that
the Penguins, after parting ways with Mike Sullivan, are now
playing him in their opener, and then they will play
him again Saturday at PPG Paints Arena. Sullivan told NHL
dot Com, I'm sure there'll be a lot of mixed emotions,
what I will tell you is my focus will be
on the Rangers and doing our best to set this

(23:20):
group up for success. And it's kind of like, what
are those those things where you would fill in the
what are those things that used to do mad libs,
and he's been moving forward, so you have to add
that at the end of every sense, he says, yeah,
ange away. He also said that about playing the Penguins.
He said, the relationships that I built with those guys
were strong. We had the privilege of winning a couple

(23:42):
couple championships together, and I think when you go through
those experiences like that, it certainly galvanizes relationships that last
a lifetime. Penguins won became the first team in the
salary cap era to win back to back Stanley Cup
championships in twenty sixteen seventeen. Here's the most amazing thing.
Mike Sullivan was the coach of the Penguins for ten years,
record four hundred and nine wins, two hundred and fifty
five losses, eighty nine ties. He's the franchise leader in

(24:05):
coaching victories, not just by a little, but by a lot.
Dan Bosma's number two with two hundred fifty one hundred
and fifty seven more victories than Bosma the coach six years,
so in four years almost almost you know, essentially doubled
double what he did. Eddie Johnson number three, two hundred
and thirty two that one's going to make more Johnson
was ahead of EJ.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
No.

Speaker 11 (24:26):
I think Bob Johnson was only their coach for two years. Yeah,
for a short time, but very successful in that run.
But so that that's an interesting storyline there. ESPN dot
Com also has a story about Sidney Crosby and how
this is, you know, kind of the last run for
these guys together and whether this will be his final
season with the Penguins, that he's on a team friendly deal,
but essentially everybody realizing that the Penguins will probably never

(24:48):
ask Sidney Crosby to be traded. He as a full
note movement clause, but it's it's going to have to
be something that comes on his end, and he doesn't seem.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
To want to move.

Speaker 11 (24:55):
But that could be a lot different come come like
January February. He might completely different feelings about that.

Speaker 5 (25:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (25:02):
I mean, it was interesting because this offseason I thought
the thing that was different was that the calls were
emanating from inside the house.

Speaker 5 (25:12):
His agent was saying some stuff.

Speaker 8 (25:14):
But then during the ticket giveaway that they do every
year for season ticket holders, he got as pissed as
I can imagine Sidney Crosby being which is still incredibly polite,
but shutting all that stuff down.

Speaker 4 (25:29):
I think it's possible that Pat Perissont spoke out of turn,
but I also think it's very unlikely that he did
not have that gauge on his client, Sidney Crosby, and
would know that that would ruffle his feathers. I don't
think he's going to do that unless there was some
sort of tacit acknowledgment of how about I flowed it

(25:50):
and you refute it. Sure, And I also think there's
a possibility that that was done not necessary to get
Sidney Crosby traded, but to make sure that certain people
weren't traded.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
Around him, right.

Speaker 11 (26:00):
That may that may have been his power move. No,
that's a that's a great point as well. Ye, yeah,
I mean that's that's uh. That was kind of the word,
you know. And I didn't have any confirmation on this,
but that was the feeling by some people that the
talk about everybody in baseball saying the Pirates should trade
Paul Skans, A lot of people were that was Paul
Skeen's agent way of maybe putting that word out there.
If you're not going to sign and build a team

(26:20):
around this guy. You might as well just trade him.
That you never heard those words, say it without you
saying you never heard those words from Paul Skeens. He's
he's he's only talked about wanting to win with the
Pirates because they're the team that's traded, that drafted him
and brought him up. But there's also a certain level
of dissatisfaction, and Paul Skins isn't shy about saying that.
You know, when he said, if you don't, we're not
going to do this, it's a wasted season, right You're

(26:41):
you're talking about a guy who finished ten and ten
and had a sub two e r A and had
more than two hundred strikeouts in less than two hundred innings.
I mean that that guy had a phenomenal season and
they just did not build the team around him.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (26:54):
Speaking of the baseball the playoffs last night, Dodgers beat
the Phillies four to three. Turned the we'll play mookie
bets from Max Munsey on a sacrifice bunt in the
ninth inning was the big takeaway there.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
But Dodgers taking a beautifully executed thing.

Speaker 11 (27:11):
It's unbelievable, you know, that's like you said, beautiful baseball
right there. And to me, Mookie Bets is my favorite
player to watch. And you have a guy who's a
six time Gold Glove winner and right field, and then
they move him to second base and now to shortstop.
And I didn't look at the final regular season DRS numbers,
but he was in the top two or three all
season at shortstop, a position he has not played the

(27:34):
majority of his career. Yeah, and for him to have
the athleticism to go from short stop to cover third
base and then get taken out on the play and
still make the play happen was a pretty incredible one there.

Speaker 5 (27:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (27:45):
I didn't watch all their games, but he wasn't bad
enough to make the not top ten.

Speaker 4 (27:50):
I mean, I think he's a gold Glove candidate. I
mean I think he's a legitimate Gold Glove candidate at shortstop.
In his first year of playing that full time in
the majors, he came up, I believe, as a second baseman.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
And moved to the outfield.

Speaker 4 (28:02):
Apparently after the game, Mookie Betts said he called the
he called for the wheel.

Speaker 3 (28:05):
They had not even run it.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
No, that wasn't something that they would like you know,
run in and practice or spring training or anything. I
think they practice it in spring training and they don't
do it again since. And I think he mentioned that
one of the infielders said something to him about, you know,
that when to use it. They had a conversation about it.
He said, you use it in a do or die situation.
He said, well, that's this, let's do it. And so
they just kind of decided they did it during a

(28:27):
pitching change.

Speaker 5 (28:29):
There is no analytics that would have backed that move
up at that point.

Speaker 11 (28:33):
And the Phillies are getting criticized for not swinging away.
You know, basically they had all the momentum on their
side and then try you know, this is a team
that does not bunt. They've got Kyle Schwarber and Trey
Turner and the batting champion, you know, one of the
top home run hitters in baseball, and you know, pound
for pound, one of the best players in baseball and
Bryce Harper and they're up there trying to, you know,
get a sacrifice bunt to move the runners, playing small ball,

(28:55):
which isn't their game. Brewers beat the Cubs. They didn't
play small ball. Three home runs, including a couple of
three run shots, one by Andrew Vaughn's the other by
Jackson Treo. They take a two ozer series lead as well.
In the best of five today, Mariners Tigers at four
oh eight. That series is tied one to one. Blue
Jays play the Yankees at eight oh eight. The Blue
Jays lead that series two nothing, so they have a

(29:17):
chance to eliminate the Yankees.

Speaker 5 (29:18):
But that one's in New York.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Steelers Browns this Sunday.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
It's a one o'clock kickoff here on DVE and Dylan Gabriel,
the rookie QB.

Speaker 3 (29:29):
Behind center for the Brownies, who was impressed.

Speaker 5 (29:33):
Honestly, Look, it's not too big for him.

Speaker 8 (29:36):
You know.

Speaker 5 (29:36):
He missed him throws for sure, but he didn't look
out of place.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
Well, you should be able to rattle this kid, you know,
make them one dimensional, like Charlie said, make him have
to throw the ball and make him have to make
some throw You don't have, Jalen Ramsey.

Speaker 8 (29:50):
You're still waiting to see that that secondary all healthy.
We don't have to wait a little while longer.

Speaker 4 (29:56):
According to Jerry Do like yesterday here on the show,
that Tror was fairly si magnificant about as significant as
Joey Porter Juniors, so uh, it'll be a minute.

Speaker 5 (30:05):
I'm going to see him till November.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
But just because it's the brown I hate when people
take the Browns lately, even when they stink, I hate
when they take.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
We never blow out the Browns. It never happened.

Speaker 8 (30:16):
I mean, especially at Cleveland. We never win at Cleveland.
It seems like in the last few seasons.

Speaker 4 (30:21):
One o'clock kickoff Accer Stadium and all of the actions
starting at nine am.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
Here one's here, You're Radio Home of the Steelers DV.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
When we come back our Miss Tackle segment, there's a
ton of stuff to get to that we didn't get
to from Sunday, including Debo going off on Jerry Jones
flipping off fans uh, the coach for the Arizona Cardinals
apologizing for punching one of his players. He kind of
deserved it, and catch of the Year from a fan

(30:49):
at least. The play call of the Year is Josh
Allen throws one into the stands. That and a whole
bunch more coming up here. Miss Tackles next on DVE Weekdays.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
On DV week Michelle and Chad Tyson the songs just
keep coming with Workforce Commercial Free Hours at ten and
three on one oh two point five DV E.

Speaker 7 (31:11):
It's football season, So how about not wasting another Sunday
feeling like you gotta clean the garage again.

Speaker 5 (31:20):
It's the DV Morning Show.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
Randy Bauman, Bill Crawford, Addie Krisner, a friend kevinck Gordon
from Trip fillin in for pursuit of this morning Miss Tackles.
Each week we go through some of the stories that
slipped through our fingers that we didn't get through. And
you know, a couple from college, a couple from college.
This past Saturday, first one, THEO Vaughn was the celebrity
picker on the Vandy Alabama game and he was being

(31:43):
interviewed by Jess.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Simmons before the game.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
You know, you gotta shoot your shot, I guess and
didn't go well for theoule page. But you are such
a Vandy fan that you actually bought former head coach
Derek Nason's house.

Speaker 6 (31:56):
You live in his house.

Speaker 7 (31:58):
I live in a former coast Dereck his old true
did he leave anything in there?

Speaker 3 (32:03):
Give him a break?

Speaker 1 (32:04):
He went.

Speaker 6 (32:04):
I think he went over to sixteen about trophy.

Speaker 9 (32:08):
Bless him.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
Blessing Derek.

Speaker 8 (32:09):
Yeah, he did.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
He left some trophies in there. I gotta get back.
Had a plunger too. Actually, well, well we'll.

Speaker 7 (32:17):
Talk about that later.

Speaker 9 (32:17):
Well, the guys are ready for your second amount of pixel.

Speaker 5 (32:19):
Go ahead, right up there.

Speaker 6 (32:21):
You're already going to see you later, see you again?

Speaker 5 (32:23):
No, I hope, Oh yeah, I hope not.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
Apparently he's been talking about going on a date with
her to somebody else on that broadcast, so that sort
of you know, uh uh precipitated that response from her.

Speaker 5 (32:41):
Did she not know that they were going on a date.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
He didn't ask her yet.

Speaker 4 (32:47):
He was saying he wanted to go on a date
with her, and I think that's why he was like, Oh,
I'm I gonna see you again.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
She said, beat it, you know, tougher theo.

Speaker 4 (32:56):
But ESPN they were interviewing some of the North Carolina
students because, as you know, Bill Belichick has not really
turned things around there.

Speaker 5 (33:04):
No, I mean he's turned things upside down.

Speaker 4 (33:06):
Yes, And her name is Jordan. Uh, she's easy to
pick up. But the kid interview.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
They interviewed one of the students about how bad things
have gotten.

Speaker 5 (33:21):
Lunch It Make It Moves.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
TCU was.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
I went to that game and that was that was
one of the saddest feelings.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
I've had in the university so far.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
And I've failed midterms.

Speaker 4 (33:33):
Before, so say something, Yeah, damn yeah, this is worse
than failing mid terms. That's what Bill Belichick has done
for the tar heels down there in North Carolina. And
how about him not allowing the university to celebrate Drake
May's success with the Patriots because it's the Patriots. And
then the news story breaks and he has to do

(33:55):
a one eighty and then they put out a post
a day later like, oh, Drake Bay, where have we
seen this before?

Speaker 3 (34:03):
Like, oh, did Jordan let you do that?

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Now?

Speaker 3 (34:05):
I can't imagine.

Speaker 5 (34:06):
That's brutal.

Speaker 4 (34:07):
The people in charge down there, the boosters are gonna
allow this one kid they.

Speaker 8 (34:11):
Thought they were getting versus what they got. I mean,
they got firefested. This is what happened on.

Speaker 4 (34:18):
Josh Allen on Sunday night threw a ball out of
bounds and Mike Trico had a great call in this
because the guy caught it and he made off with
the ball, and Trico did the play by play turns.

Speaker 5 (34:34):
He was catch there.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
Oh he's gone Milano. Milano's gonna go t He's.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
A real fifteen. He might get a beer. Where you're going,
man at your moment, Milano or forty led by.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Allen, He's gonna take it the distance. Maybe it wasn't
his seat, Maybe he was one to be on TV.
He's gone.

Speaker 8 (34:54):
You said he took it because he took it because
you're not allowed to keep the ball. Unless a player
comes over and hands you a ball, you're not allowed
to keep it. Right, So that because you know, they
don't want to lose twenty balls during the courts of
a game. And so that guy caught that who knew
who he caught it from, and immediately stuck it under

(35:16):
his shirt be lined out of the stadium. And I mean,
I think you've got to applaud that guy. I don't
think that guy should be banned for life. I think
if you're able to do that and get away with
it like you win, that should be the rule. Because
I don't think this saw him. He tucked it under
his jersey. It probably looked like you just had a
beer gut.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
Do you also see the skycam that messed up the
Vikings field goal in London?

Speaker 5 (35:43):
Yeah, the spider cam.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
Yeah, yeah, and they didn't catch it. So this happened
twice this weekend. The other time was it happened was
our college football No, No.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
It happened in the Cowboys game, I think, and they
called it wrong both times.

Speaker 3 (35:59):
It's supposed us to be no play like dead do over.
That play did not happen.

Speaker 4 (36:06):
They called the miss field goal in the Vikings game,
and I think it was the Dallas game where they
were like, nope, just in complete pass because it hit
off somebody's helmet went up in the air and it
hit the cam and then fell back down.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
Those things they get a little close.

Speaker 6 (36:23):
But this one it hit the wire.

Speaker 3 (36:24):
Yeah, but I don't know how the rest wouldn't have
seen that.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Yeah, it's literally they just look at that camera, you know,
it was it was almost blocked, and I think they
thought it was partially blocked.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
But if they got anything on it was like a fingertip.

Speaker 4 (36:37):
It wasn't a fool, right, But then you see the
replay and it hits the wire and then it just
shaves off to the right. Also, Tom Brady, who I
still think is not really feeling this whole commentator gig,
he had some nice things to say about our quarterbacks.

Speaker 5 (36:54):
You with Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Yeah, beyond impressed.

Speaker 10 (36:56):
And I think at that age there's so many other
factors that come into play how to be a great quarterback.
And you know, we all want to talk about what
happens in the offseason with him, and there's some things
that are there's a lot of narrative retreats.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
Yeah, there's a lot of different it's a little different.

Speaker 10 (37:11):
But what we know about him on the field is
he's a surgical passer, he's got a killer instinct, he's
hyper competitive, and I think he's brought all those things
to to Pittsburgh.

Speaker 5 (37:23):
Not surprised.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
Yes, I do think there's a little bit of if
I remind people how good I was at that age,
but I could praise him tremendous, you know. I mean,
Brady won a super Bowl at age nine. He's in
his forties, forty forty one, insane, So why not air roge?

Speaker 10 (37:46):
I mean the.

Speaker 5 (37:48):
Offensive line, Oh, that's what I think.

Speaker 8 (37:50):
You know, I'm still looking for them to take a
step forward. And this is probably not going to be
that week because of how formidable the Browns defense is.
But the passing game is featuring the running back because
he's dumping it off because he has no time, and
that to me, is not a long term strategy. I

(38:11):
want to see the tight ends more involved. I want
to see DK getting bombs down the sidelines. I want
to see these features in the offense that he's capable of.
I know he's capable of it.

Speaker 4 (38:22):
Yak and eACT throw to the back. That's basically all
they got right now. And Jak Yaki, I.

Speaker 8 (38:28):
Think, you know, the best teams in the league when
it gets cold out are gonna are gonna shut that down.

Speaker 5 (38:34):
I don't think that's gonna be there all year.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
We saw another play that just defies logic in the
Arizona Cardinals game with a Mari Demricardo dropping the ball
before he goes into the end zone after a seventy
yard run, oops to daylight and I don't understand why
guys do this. It makes absolutely no sense, and neither
did their head coach Steve Gannon, who punched him in.

Speaker 3 (38:58):
The chest on the side.

Speaker 4 (39:00):
Yeah, just hauled off and decked him and then was
asked about it and was like, yeah, you know, in retrospect,
maybe I shouldn't have done that.

Speaker 12 (39:09):
I didn't see the video, David, But yeah, I actually, uh,
I woke up this morning and didn't feel great about it, honestly,
and so in the team meeting, I addressed it. I
apologize to Omar, apologize to the team, and I just
told him I kind of let the moment of what
happened get the better of me there obviously, Like I

(39:35):
tried to be emotionally stable and calm because my job
is to solve problems when during a game and kind
of lead the charge on that.

Speaker 5 (39:46):
So it's not really who I am who I want
to be, and I told the guys that today.

Speaker 12 (39:50):
So it's a mistake by me, and it's just like
everybody in there, everybody made us some type of mistake yesterday,
which is, you know, call me in as to why
we didn't win the game.

Speaker 5 (40:02):
Uh, and we can't let it up.

Speaker 4 (40:04):
Yeah, he said there's gonna be no repercussions for uh
for him Zocado.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Oh yeah, I'm not myself.

Speaker 8 (40:11):
He sounds like me as a dad after I lose
it on the kids or something, you know what I mean.

Speaker 9 (40:17):
That's not who I am, that's not who I want
to be. I just really came to the car didn't
have their shoes. I was waking from the finished the
sense of like, well, we all make mistakes. I mean,
his was more costly than mine. Yeah, he's cost us
a touchdown. Mine just you know, caused some embarrassment.

Speaker 12 (40:29):
Well.

Speaker 8 (40:29):
The other thing about that mistake is when it was made,
they were up twenty one six in the game.

Speaker 5 (40:35):
Like everybody's like, oh my god, they lost the game
on that play. They still gave up an incredible but
it changed them.

Speaker 11 (40:44):
Yeah, he goes in there, it's over. It's like Grimble
against the Broncos right in Denver. He fumbles at the
goal line.

Speaker 4 (40:51):
Yeah, it kind of kind of absolved Ben of throwing
an interception to the defensive tackle in the end zone,
you know, because that's that's how the game ended. It
wasn't on Zager Grimbles, but everybody talks about Grimbles fumble.
Grimbled had the ball in the wrong hand and he
didn't have a protected and that's I mean, I just
I still remember like the feeling I had watching him
as he went at that guy, thinking.

Speaker 5 (41:14):
No, just take one step to the right, ND, why are.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
You trying to run over him? Would have been great
if he would have done it, but he didn't and
we lost last one for you.

Speaker 4 (41:27):
James Harrison still no fan of Roger Goodell, and on
his podcast with Joe Hayden, he went off on Jerry
Jones flipping off Jets fans and is calling out the
commissioner for not acting.

Speaker 14 (41:41):
Oh you're flipping off fans?

Speaker 3 (41:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (41:42):
Man, don't players get fine for that?

Speaker 3 (41:44):
But Jerry he up in the owner suite.

Speaker 14 (41:46):
Bryan Branch of the Lions, he got fined twenty thousand
dollars last year flipping.

Speaker 5 (41:50):
Off a fan.

Speaker 14 (41:51):
Hey, Roger, what are you going to find Jerry for
flipping off the fans? This is supposed to be representation
of the shield all that other good stuff. M not
a good look for an actual owner to be flipping
off fans. Are you going to do something about that?

Speaker 4 (42:05):
Boy?

Speaker 5 (42:06):
You're just going to sit back. I think gonna sit back.
Roger Dale's a puppet for the owners if you don't
find him.

Speaker 14 (42:11):
I want all NFL players remember this that he did
not find Jerry for getting caught giving fans fingers.

Speaker 5 (42:17):
So y'all bet not get fined for that either.

Speaker 14 (42:19):
You understand NFL PA directed way, Yet you think.

Speaker 15 (42:24):
They might try to make something different of it because
he was in the crowd, like, because he was in
the suite.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
Who cares you flipping off fans at the game?

Speaker 5 (42:31):
Tell ABIs right there on TV.

Speaker 14 (42:32):
You're representing your team, the NFL, the shield, Remember, can't
do anything that it's gonna turnish.

Speaker 3 (42:38):
The shield negatively effects that shield.

Speaker 5 (42:41):
They don't pay Rogert Goodell. What it's sixty seventy million
dollars a year for nothing?

Speaker 4 (42:45):
Yeah he did, he did double barrel. It was a
double barrel finger to the Jets fans. Yeah, fingers classy,
very classy.

Speaker 14 (42:54):
Shield.

Speaker 16 (42:56):
How how much would you think, like, how much of
a fine for Dell? Well, first of all, it's like
for players getting twenty Yeah, it should be one hundred
thousand minimum. It's it's in a complete embarrassment.

Speaker 4 (43:10):
I mean, if the league is not completely embarrassed by
Jerry Jones already, this should have pushed them over the limit.
The other owners should be furious with him for this,
because there are some like David Tepper's head interactions with
fans like this. Just I get that society as a whole,
the temperature is very hot and boiling over right now,
But like you have to have at least a minimum

(43:30):
line of decorum for your owners. If you expect anybody
in the stands to not act like an animal on Sunday, like,
you have to hold everybody to a higher level of
accountability at that level in the NFL, What could they
have possibly done to get him to react that way?
I mean, think of all the things Bob Nutting went

(43:51):
through this year, I deserve it. But yeah, the thing
with the fans did doman They had a kid take
a picture and open up his shirt and it's until
the team Bob. Yeah, I mean we had had the
fans that costed him on the on the rotunda on
opening open cost is h I feel they.

Speaker 5 (44:07):
Kind of they.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
Didn't touch them. But yeah, but I'm just saying like
he didn't react to it. He's got a lot more
reason to, uh to not like his own fan base
because of how much they dislike him.

Speaker 8 (44:19):
I think the difference is probably self awareness. I think
Bob knows. Bob knows, or he doesn't care, or he
doesn't care. Yeah, I don't think Jerry knows how bad
he is as an owner.

Speaker 4 (44:29):
And GM well, yeah, I think he's a little uh
Cobwebby in the brain right now.

Speaker 8 (44:36):
But oh yeah, I mean, Michael Parsons was asking for
more money than he bought the team for, so there's
a pretty big disconnect.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
Yeah, all right, that's it for us for today.

Speaker 4 (44:48):

Here's Tom Opferman.

Speaker 15 (45:46):
The Steelers returned from their time off over the weekend
to practice yesterday at the upmc reney Sports Complex, and
two key players on the defense return to the fold.
Outside linebacker Alex Highsmith has been dealing with an ankle
injury since the team's home opening loss to the Seattle
Seahawks in Week two, but return to the practice field yesterday.
High Smith was participating with the first team defense, which
is a good sign that he will most likely be
available for Sunday against the Browns. High Smith has a

(46:08):
sack and three quarterback hits in his two games played
this year, and his pattern will provide a boost to
a pass rush that already has fourteen sacks, which is
high for fifth most in the league. Cornerback Joey Porter
Junior also participated in practice, and even though he was
a limited participant in practices leading up to the Vikings
game in Dublin, Porter was ultimately ruled out of the game,
that won't be the case this week, as the thirty
year cornerback said after practice that he'd definitely be playing

(46:30):
against Cleveland and that he's surely back. Good news for
the Steelers, who will be without corner Jalen Ramsey for
likely the next couple games. Mike tom Will will give
his weekly press conference at noon today and will shed
more light on the status of both high Smith and
Porter Junior for the game Sunday.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
Tom Opferman with the Steelers report, the Black and Gold
faith

Speaker 1 (46:49):
Will always travel well to see the team on the road,
and now Caliente and DV give you a chance to
become a world warrior.
