Jack Osborne was very emotional during that interview, and he
was thanking young Blood for what he had done, and
young Blood was saying, the people who come out and
say such things are basically inserting themselves, you know, in
the in basically what they're accusing me of. They're accusing
me of being a culture vulture. But they're trying to
put themselves in the conversation. And I'm doing basically what.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
How I mourn.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
It's a great point.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I'm mourning by being like Ozzy because Ozzy means so
much to me. So I'm wearing his cross, I'm doing
his I I I'm being him because that's how I
mourn him, because he meant so much.
Speaker 2 (00:48):

the twentieth at the Strip District Terminal. The installation will
(01:49):
feature a narrative plaque embedded in the sidewalk along Smallman Street,
So Smallman Street is going to be closed off to

for the festivities. But the inaugural honorees are George Benson,
a famed jazz musician born in the city's Hill District.
(02:09):
Nellie Bly, a pioneering investigative journalist who was born in
Armstrong County.
Speaker 7 (02:15):
She is the female statue at the airport now that's
been added to the Franco and George Washington.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Correct also Andrew Carnegie, the industrialist.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
And I've heard of him here the librarian.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Rachel Carson, a conservationist and writer who was born in Springdale.
Speaker 6 (02:37):
And it was a dream to see a strip of
bars where people would pee on the sidewalks.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
Couldn't wait.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Verso Clemente, the Pittsburgh Pirates legend, who is also remembered
for his humanitarian efforts. Michael Keaton, the Oscar nominated actor

Speaker 4 (02:57):
He's the best, the best.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Fred Rogers, who was born and raised in La Trobe
and hosted, of course, mister Rogers neighborhood. Jonah Salk, who
led the University of Pittsburgh medical research team that developed
the polio vaccine.
Speaker 6 (03:11):
Every time I think so, I remember being at a
pit game and they were showing like, uh, you know, uh,
illustrious grads from the University of Pittsburgh, and they're showing
all these people, and then they showed Jonah Salk, and
you know, there's no response. Then they show Mike Ditka
and the place goes crazy. Your Way contributions to society.
(03:35):
Maybe we should have given a smattering of applause to
Jonas Salk.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
But you know, we saw Polio Dick did that.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I think we know we were talking about high schools
and all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
I think that Montour got all that Mike Dika money,
which is why we have such a nice campus.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
So I do I do apploy Dika Man.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
That class is incredible. You gotta think the next class
got a big garde in there.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Oh yeah, we gotta get.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Oh yeah for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Uh, there's a couple yeah, I mean, come on, a
couple more names. Andy Warhol, who was raised in Oakland
and is considered among the most important artists of the
twentieth century. And then August Wilson, a Hill District native
and Pulser Prize winning play right Best Knows, best known
for plays chronicling the experiences of America's black community.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
Every time I see you in August Wilson play I'm
never like that was okay, They're always like Mike.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Yeah, it does sound like Michael Keaton is going to
appear in person to accept his honor.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Good. Pretty cool. I love that.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
And so to be selected for a Star nominees must
have been born in, or spent their formative or creative
years in Alleghany, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Green, Indiana, Lawrence, Washington,
or Westmoreland Counties, and their contributions must have had a
nation no impact makes sense.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
I mean again, that class is impressive. Got a lot
of studs.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know how many others you
go to of that caliber.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
General Braddock, Well, now you're getting you going old school.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
I mean, if you're going, Carnegie right, fricking there, Carnegie
and Frick, Dude, you know John Hayes.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You got to put them next to each other, don't you.
Speaker 6 (05:29):
Yeah, Carnegie, Frick and then and then I'll see you
in hell.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Say that the Carnage did he did late in their lives.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Carnage's like, look, man, we're billionaires.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
Let's squatch this beef. These people are eating dirt. How
about if we give them some of our money? And
He's like, I'll see you in hell.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Where we're both going.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
Yeah, where we're both going. And Carnegie's like, I don't know,
I built some libraries. I feel like I'm purgatory bound.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (05:57):
That's because he made Frick run his company while he
toured Europe and was over in Ireland and doing all
the fun stuff. And Frick's you know, getting shot in
the neck. He did get shot in shot and then
just kept working. Yeah, He's like, I guess I'm gonna
work from home for a little bit.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Guys.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
Yeah, I'll see you in hell while we're both going.
So you don't want to go give to this gofund me.
Then it was crazy though, billionaire mentality back then.
Speaker 7 (06:27):
Oh yeah, well I think Carnegie realized like the amount
of people he had to trample to get what he
got and then just spent the end of his life
giving it all away.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, sorry about the Pinkerton shooting. Your great grandparents. Here's
a library, I mean incredible.
Speaker 7 (06:46):
But you know you have the Hillman's, the Rooneys like
we we we can. We can go bar for bar
with any city in terms of just like influential national.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Yeah, important people.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Marvin Hamlish put him in Jeff Goldbloom, he's in.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Frank Cappelli Dumen Yeah, rip Frank.
Speaker 7 (07:16):
Yeah, just make his star have a mustache on it.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Just a fuzzy little piece of concrete there, all right.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
If none of this stuff is on your October to
do list. You are officially a Halloween hyder. Newpole looked
at the top fall or Halloween activities that we're going
to take part in this year, and number one makes sense.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Because you don't even have to leave the couch.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
The number one thing that everybody likes to do watch
a scary movie. Forty eight percent say they will definitely
watch at least one.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Do you guys like to binge?
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, around October you started?
Speaker 7 (07:53):
Yeah, yeah, what have you watched? The girls have already started.
I tried to introduce them to twenty eight Days. They
didn't love it. They didn't love it right from the beginning.
Just the rage monkeys biting people was They were not
a fan.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Last year. You know, I talked about how Abby was like,
you gotta watch what was it?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Barbarian?
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Barbarian?
Speaker 7 (08:15):
And I watched that with the girls and there is
such a hilarious nude scene in it, and me and
the girls still laugh about that. But yeah, just kind
of echin back in, I know what you did last summer.
You know, we watched all the screams.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
What about you?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I go old. I like the older ones, and I.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Think that's it's just a tougher sell for the younger kids.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I totally understand that.
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Yeah, last night I had The Baseball Game on the
laptop and Diabolique on TV, the original nineteen fifty five,
and highly highly recommend that one if you want to watch,
Like apparently Hitchcock really wanted that movie and like missed
getting the rights by it like a couple of hours.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
It's very cocky in it. It was remade in the nineties,
so that was a good one.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
But you know, I always love those monster movies too,
like the universal monster movies. Those are always really fun
to go back and watch.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
The black and white monster movies like Belagozi, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Frank Stein, Yeah, Frank Sein's Bride's a good one. Dracula.
Speaker 6 (09:18):
I mean, the original Nosferatu is kind of weird, but
if you really want, like the new Nosaratu I liked,
but the Werner Herzog One is to me the gold
standard of spooky weirdness creepy like because there's this also
the element of klaus Kinsky just being the weirdest person
ever on camera and he's like terrifying.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
So those are the ones I really like.
Speaker 7 (09:41):
What about like this series, like the franchises like The
Conjuring and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Honestly, those don't do anything for me.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I've never watched them. Really, it's really weird. I've never
watched them.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I the kind of like more I don't even know
if it's I'm scared, but maybe like more like gruesome
horror kind of stuff I like is kind of from.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
The eighties, maybe early nineties stuff.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
I was telling Randy, like, I want you to watch
Possession because it's available on Criterion now and I had
to get it from something else last year.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
I had to like buy it to watch it. Sam Neil.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
It's like it's a creepy, almost body horror kind of film.
It's not an easy watch like the early nineties, right, Yeah,
it's not an easy watch by any stretch, but it's.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
It's a crap movie.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
There's also The Vanishing and it was remade, but the
original I think the originals from like the late eighties
and it's a it's a Dutch film, dude. It's it's
like Silence of the Lambs vibe oh really scary, yes,
and it like a lot of people think that's like
one of the greatest horror movies ever. The remake was okay,
but the original one Holy cow, especially after you've just
(10:55):
gotten done with some international travel, because there's that element
is part of that movie in the Vanishing and people
are traveling through Europe and.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Then someone vanished gone. How does that happen? Yeah, like
dude goes to a rest stop with his wife and
she never comes out, and then what happens?
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Oh, so good, so good.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
There are some like new horror films that I'm like
hearing about that I won't watch, like for.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
That reason because it's just too creepy and scary.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Yeah, like somebody keeps telling me or scary like.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Scary, like we're somebody keeps telling me to see bring
her Back, And I have heard that it is absolutely terrifying,
and I won't watch it because I think I'm I
think I'm at peak terror right now just in my
daily life, and I'm like, I think I'm good, Like
I watched a lot more horror films last year, and
(11:49):
now i think I'm at a stress level that I'm
just kind of like, yeah, I'm with Christine this year,
Like I'm not actually afraid of my car, so I can.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
Watch that suspense I think is a little more suited
for these times than the the.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Horror bloody yeah, horror movies.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
You know that reminds me. You know what I did
start watching was The The Monster ed Geen.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah, well on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Oh it's it's a hard watch.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
Yeah, but you know, I didn't get through a lot
of it. I mean it was really sick last weekend.
I just kind of had it on as I was like,
you know, in an Anahistamine Hayes. Yeah, but I thought
it was pointless. I'm like, why are they doing this?
It's like, he's not that interesting of a serial killer.
I know that Psycho is based on him, but not
(12:38):
enough of a story there to be like, oh, he
killed a couple of people and then made lampshades out
of skin. Creepy and gross, but like I don't need
to learn more about it.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
It's weird because I can't tell if Charlie Hunham's doing a.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Great ed game or if he wait, do you hear
my ed Geen? Because he's doing like this really infantile
I like fantalized voice and I'm like, is that what
he sounded like? Or is that an odd choice? Okay,
because it's a really weird choice.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
I do like I'm only on like I think I'm
approaching the third episode.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
They do bring Hitchcock into.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
It, which I think is smart because I think, to
your point, otherwise, he's kind of a.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Boring, weird dude to get into.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
And it is a very hard watch, Like it's a
very gross theme and he's a gross dude, and it's
just like.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
A really dark theme.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
Well then you find out that some of the things
that made the Netflix series at least somewhat interesting about
Edgeen didn't even happen, so they had to like make
up stuff.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Okay, that's no good. Also, I keep wanting to call
him ed gamey, and that's.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
The problem because I keep wanting to do like Hungry
the Gamy story.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
He just like resurrects old restaurants and make them all
red lobsters.
Speaker 7 (14:01):
The Vanishing. He's like, I took a deuce in that
bathroom and it's gone.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
I didn't flush, Where did it go that.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
I've been also introducing the girls to the classics from
my childhood. So we just watched Halloween Awesome, Nightmare on
Elm Street Awesome Friday the thirteenth, there's nightmares. Oh my god,
in what I'm finding in the older horror movies, is
the tension builds almost the whole damn movie, Like the
(14:29):
First Friday the thirteenth, you don't see Jason, yeah, you know,
and almost the entire Halloween, the First Halloween nineteen seventy eight,
you don't see Michael Myers the whole time, and it
just gets creepier and creepier and creeper. As Jaws watching
a hockey game that zero zero in the third period
(14:49):
and time is winding down, You're like, is.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Anything gonna happen?
Speaker 6 (14:53):
It is time for our pick six segment here on
the DV morning show, Bill and I each week go
through six games that we guarantee he probably might possibly
win against the spread. By the way, let's kick it
off Dallas at Carolina. Carolina is getting three and a half.
The Cowboys and their vulgar octogenarian owner Jerry Jones head
(15:13):
to Carolina this weekend, hoping to finger the Carolina Panthers.
Their obnoxious owner, David Tepper, is hoping to throw water
on the Cowboys Super Bowl hopes, as well as a
few Cowboys fans sitting below his luxury box if possible,
And now you know, Jerry Jones was fined two hundred
and fifty grand for flipping off fans at MetLife Stadium
last weekend and apologized, saying he meant to actually give
(15:34):
a thumbs up, but accidentally flip the bird, which explains
why you never got the job as Ebert's co host
on at the Movies, also explains why you're so bad
at hitchhiking. The Cowboys are on fire right now, one
of the leading offenses in the league, with Dak doing
it through the air Javonte Williams on the ground after
the Jets win in New Jersey. Jerry told them both
(15:54):
to go f themselves, then apologize and said I meant
great job, fellas. Look, Jerry's room at the Dimension Double
Tree might be almost ready for check in, but a
couple of his moves this offseason may have actually worked
out pretty good, one of them being signing Javonte Williams
to a cheap one year contract after everyone thought he
was washed in Denver, and the Micah trade might be
(16:15):
working out in his favor. Replacement James Houston makes forty
one million less per year than Micah and has more
Saxon Parsons does right now, Although Jerry might have actually
wanted to keep Micah but accidentally gave him the middle
finger instead of the okay sign during gun Who knows
Ceedee Lamb probably won't be bad at but if if
(16:35):
Lamb lies down, Pickins production.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Has been anything but slim in his absence.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
Old Shuba Hubbard is probably still in the injury cupboard
for Carolina, but former Cowboy Rico Doddle did in dilly
or dally for the Panthers last weekend. He did more
damage to the Dolphins than the cantuna industry, running for
two hundred and forty yards and adding twenty eight through
the air against Miami's no game defense, which which.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Is why Carolina won last week.
Speaker 6 (17:02):
In spite of Bryce Young, who continues to prove that
Heisman's don't translate into Lombardi's in the NFL, especially when
the Heisman Trophy looks like a statue next to the
guy that won it. Small fellow Cowboys will have no
problem lassoing these declaude Panthers, take Jerry's kids and lay
the points next.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Cards at the Colts minus six and a half.
Speaker 7 (17:22):
Colts are one of the surprise teams of the league
this season. At four and one and the Cardinals lost
three games. Last week, their head coach, Jonathan Gannon was
fined one hundred thousand dollars for reacting appropriately.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
I mean, that play was so stupid it made.
Speaker 7 (17:39):
A very smart coach assault a man that could beat
the stuffing out of him. Just to make a point,
Gannon should hand deliver the one hundred thousand dollars check
to the NFL offices in New York and drop it
right before he walks in the door. See how Goodell
likes it. Caleb Johnson is lucky he doesn't play on
the Cardinals. I think Gannon would have gone Mark Sanchez
(18:01):
on him after he let that kickoff go into the
end zone. Both what I had to leave it an ambulance. Meanwhile,
Danny Dimes looks like a million bucks in Indy. Jonathan
Taylor leads the league in rushing, rushing touchdowns and total
touchdowns with seven.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
They have a young tight end from.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
PSU that is actually impactful receivers for days, and they
only have to use five offensive linemen.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
I'm jealous.
Speaker 7 (18:29):
I think this game has over written all over it.
Cardinals are good for twenty points and even though Kyler
Murray can hang glide on a dorito and you can
see his feet on his driver's license. That man can
sling it, but you got to hand it to him
because he can't reach it. I mean, a low snap
(18:49):
hit him in the head last week and they had
three turnovers on three drives and that helps the over two.
Cardinals can't blow a game that they're getting blown out in.
Take the Colts and put Kyler back in the cupboard
when you're done.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
Next Bronco's at the Jets in London, Jets getting seven
and a half. The NFL sending the Jets to London
to sell the game to Europeans is like sending someone
Limburger to try to get them to like cheese. If
that's their introduction to the product, they're just gonna assume
it all stinks that bad. The Broncos, on the other hand,
were sharper than vermontchetdter against the Eagles, and it was
(19:25):
all cream, cheese and Philly for Denver in the second half,
when coach Sean Payton showed some liberty balls by going
for two and the fourth to get an eighteen to
seventeen win against the defending champs. The Broncos flew immediately
to London after the game on Sunday, and per the
head coach, will have a quote no sight seeing edict
in effect. Peyton reportedly told the team that the entire
(19:46):
week leading up to the game, they won't see London,
they won't see France, and he stressed they won't see
anyone's underpants. The Jets get to be the home team
in this one, and the team is promising to bring
an authentic New York Jets home game experience to the
fans at London's Tottenham Spur Stadium, and it really does
sound authentic. The Jets plan on bringing over a bunch
(20:07):
of scalpers to unload tickets for half of face value
in the parking lot. A gaggle of Staten Island Tony's
will be on hand to set fire to a Bonnix
jersey while fireman Ed desperately tries to stomp it out.
And they also plan to pipe in an indistinguishable mix
of sulfur and sewage to walk through the crowd for
that authentic New Jersey.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
In game experience.
Speaker 6 (20:27):
And if you think the air smells bad, we'd get
a whiff of the football team. First year coach Aerin
Glenn was supposed to restore order to the Fledge League franchise,
but that's like tasking someone with.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Fixing Britney Spears' social media profile.
Speaker 6 (20:39):
No matter how much you try to coach a better performance,
as soon as you turn your back, She's just gonna
go live on Instagram, rip off her clothes and do
a Thorzine mambo with a set of steak knives. The
Jets front office currently involved in a messy multi person
sex harassment scandal. Their last playoff winning quarterback got arrested
for doing his own knife dance in Indie last week,
(21:00):
and now the team has to fly to London after
getting embarrassed at home. Jets owner Woody Johnson's ass has
to be chaffed. Good news is he knows where to
get plenty of baby powder. Justin Fields, playing under his
fourth offensive coordinator in five years, is more lost than
Christopher and Pauley in the Pine Barrens episode, and the
Broncos are celebrating their biggest wins in Super Bowl fifty.
(21:21):
Like Megan Markle and the Royals, this one has no
chance of being close. On the positive note for the Jets,
at least, the English fans are already used to one
team finishing the game with a score of nil.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Take the Broncos There New Jonkoes.
Speaker 6 (21:34):
Next Lions at the Chiefs minus two and a half.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
Despite the fact that both of the qbs in this
game look like they're battling lime disease, this match is
no lemon.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
It's got some juice.
Speaker 7 (21:47):
Just because exhausted Ryan Gosling is going head to head
with trans Darlene from Roseanne doesn't mean that this isn't
potentially the best game of the week. I think it's
damn near panic button time for the Chiefs. I know,
take Tay is superstitious, so she needs to knock on
Travis's wood. But that might not even be enough, so
she might even need to redo that song and make.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
It about wood. You click on the song.
Speaker 7 (22:13):
And that picture that all your worst friends sent you,
the entire pandemic pops up. I think if she does that,
it's a win win. I mean, the Chiefs start winning games,
and that version of the song will single handedly make
that a double album. I guess technically it would have
to be a double handedly making it a double album,
but you.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Get my point.
Speaker 7 (22:34):
Because the Chiefs Losing games early in the year is
kind of shocking, But even more shocking is that they're
getting called for penalties. What they have forty two flags
this season, they had thirteen penalties for one hundred and
nine yards against the Jags.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
It's like the refs are.
Speaker 7 (22:52):
Retroactively penalizing the boring ass brand.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
Of football the Chiefs play.
Speaker 7 (22:56):
It's the NFL equivalent of the trap, and all, all
of a sudden, the Chiefs can't close games out. They
couldn't stop that albino avatar even when he fell down
twice on the same play. And it didn't help that
Chris Jones, a guy they're paying one hundred and fifty
eight million dollars, just stood in the middle of the
field watching that pale centaur gallop into the end zone
(23:17):
like he was watching it on TV. Then he deleted
his social media. Good Raid, Cordell. The Lions looked like
the best team in the league right now. They put
thirty seven points on the Bengals and it looked like
they were running a live practice.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
The running back was.
Speaker 7 (23:34):
Throwing tds to the tight end, which probably made Arthur
Smith's peep tingle. I think you just got to make
this one simple. Take the Lions or delete your account.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
That Bengals at the Packers Packers minus fourteen and a half.
The Cincinnati Bengals roll into Green Bay with newly acquired
Joe Flacco as their new starting quarterback, and he got
to hand it to him. The Bengals saw that their
house was on and said, quick, somebody call an arsonist.
Flacco already beat the Packers this season with the Browns,
(24:06):
and if he can do it again on a second team,
he'll be the first quarterback to achieve that feat since
nineteen fifty, when both the Chargers and the Bills beat
the New York Titans behind starting quarterback Joe Flacco.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
He's old Jack kim So in leaving Cleveland.
Speaker 6 (24:26):
In leaving Cleveland, both Flacco and the Bengals will no
longer be Browning as QB. Jake Browning moves to the
deuce slot, where he's not likely to throw as many interceptions,
but there's no guarantee he still won't account for a
couple somehow, because my god, he threw more picks than
Rick Nielsen on the Dream Police Tour.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Look, the Bengals are making a statement with this trade.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
They want to stay alive for a playoff Berth as
long as they can, you know, because Burrow is gonna
come back and then they can get him killed all
over again.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
But the Bengals had to do something. Chiefskape.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Bengals owner Mike Brown saw that half full stadium watching
Cooper rush Baltimore last weekend and thought, Jesus, I'm not
gonna sell any beer or diarrhea spaghetti with this browning
putts at quarterback.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I better do something drastic.
Speaker 6 (25:08):
So he reached deep in his pockets and paid the
pricey sum of a fifth round pick for a sixth
round pick to land arp comeback player of the Year
Joe Flacco. Kudos, Mike, really mortgage the future on this one.
But all Cincinnati has to do is protect Flacco long
enough out of the shotgun to throw out to Chase
or Higgins, and that might actually work. Flacco might be
able to get this offense to move the ball a
(25:29):
bit against Green Bay. So so secondary and fourteen and
a half is a lot of points in the NFL. Yes,
the Bengals defense is bad enough that Central Catholic could
throw up twenty eight on him, and the Packers are
itching for a blowout at home for their fans.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I love the over in this one, but if I.
Speaker 6 (25:45):
Got to go against the spread, I'm not giving anybody
fourteen and a half points with Chase in Higgins, Ryan
Chazero love this one because it's going backdoor.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
I'm taking Flacco fourteen and a half.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
Next the main event, Browns at Steelers minus five and
a half.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
After making the Emerald owl look like a giant eagle
wile the Steelers returned from their home away from Home
to their home home from home, Sitting atop the AFC
North with the last QB standing in the division. Aaron Rodgers,
just like everybody predicted, he might be over the hill,
but he's still under center.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Baby.
Speaker 7 (26:24):
He must have snuck off to Cork to do an
Irish prayer for health and kissed the Blarney stone because
the only thing he should really be passing at this
point in life is kidney stones. Aaron Rodgers didn't do
the Trinity College tour when the team was in Ireland
because he remembers when the Book of Kels first came
out because he's old. Sean Kemp speaking of old things
(26:47):
at colleges. Dylan Gabriel aka Tommy Callahan is heading down
seventy six this weekend. You know a lot of people
go to college for seven years. I know they're called doctors.
Credit work what it is due, though, this kid's This
kid could have got broiled in London and he didn't.
The Browns is the Browns. So they lost the game
(27:08):
that they could have won. But they've done that every
other game this season.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
Look it up.
Speaker 7 (27:14):
You can't put that on the kid that sold a
half a million break pads. I put that on the coach,
the GM and the owner. He is the forty first
different starter since nineteen ninety nine. To put it in context,
the Steelers have had sixteen different starters since nineteen ninety nine,
and five of them are since Big Ben retired. When
(27:35):
Stefanski said this offseason that he was getting off the
QB carousel, I think he meant just for a minute
so he could throw up and get back on.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
Trade and rally. Boys, trade and rally.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
But if Gabriel somehow leaves this game, you won't see
Shador Sanders. It hasn't been made official, but Bailey Zappi
is probably gonna leapfrog him on the depth chart along
with dueezl Moon, youu it in Diva muffin.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
I can't wait to.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
See Shador's locker room interview with a ventriloquiz dummy doing
sign language. This game is not complicated. We hate the
Browns because they suck. They hate us because they ain't us.
They haven't won a regular season game in Pittsburgh since
I was in college.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Use eight offensive.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
Linemen and see if you can give Rogers more than
half a blink an eye and maybe he can throw
it to the tight end. We're paying a million dollars
a snap too. You can get a good look at
a butcher's ass by sticking your head up there.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
But would you rather take his word for it?
Speaker 6 (28:42):
No?
Speaker 7 (28:42):
I mean you can sit a look at a t
boom by sticking your head up a butcher. No, it's
gonna be your bowl. Look, just let the Browns, Tommy boy,
this game. Knock on Robert Woods and take the Steelers
to beat the Browns for the twenty first time in
a row and have a beer in their honor.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
There you go, take six for here on the DVE
Morning Show, did you play something for? Maybe?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
This report is sponsored by Taco Bell.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Lots of sunshine with high temperatures only around sixty today
clear and an overnight loan near forty for Friday sunshine.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Mike Pursuit has got your Sports Now on your radio

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Sports sub rocks you bt Bridgeville Applats.
Speaker 8 (29:24):
In the likely event to Steelers find themselves without wide
receiver Calvin austin the third on Sunday, they'll have to adjust.
The unanswered question is whether they'll get creative in doing
so or just reply on next man up? Roman Wilson
and Scottie Miller options in the event the Steelers go
for the latter approach, but tight end John new Smith
(29:44):
has positioned flexibility in the event they don't.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
You become a wide receiver This week he said, did
I become a probacy? But will you? I'm a football
player whatever that mean? I mean you got that club
in your bag? I got everything in my band? Man?
Are you wide receiver too? Without Calvin Man? I'm a
football player. I'm a football player. That's the best I
can say. So he didn't say yes, didn't say no.
(30:08):
Show us everything in the bay. Tight End Pat.
Speaker 8 (30:12):
Fryar Muth played a season low fifteen snaps against Minnesota
in Dublin, but friar Mouth trusts Mike Tomlins explanation that
the limited involvement was mostly due to schematics. Friar Mouth
also acknowledged that the schemes can change from week to week.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
I developed as a blocker, super confident that. Again, like
what my Tea said in this press conference, there's truth
to that. I mean, this is Darnold's the rendering and
plus finals. But yeah, no, I'm I trust. I have
full trust in Art the front office. I have full trusts.
They had never given me a reason to not trust them.
Speaker 4 (30:47):
And it's a game. It was a game planning thing.
I'm not trusted too much about it. Anything changed without Calvin.
I gus to find out something.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Let me just stick another receiver in there, you go,
more tight ends.
Speaker 9 (30:56):
Just find out Monday, I guess to find out Sunday.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
Okay, he trusts them. Do they trust him?
Speaker 8 (31:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
I think they do.
Speaker 8 (31:03):
And the reason why I went back and looked at
the Minnesota game. Now, the blockfield goal, he was culpable
and people were wondering was it disciplinary, but they had
him out there. They kicked their subsequent field goal and
he was still on the field goal team.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
You think that they were going to take him out
of anything, it would be that.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
And they had Friarmuth in the game at the end
when they went forward on fourth and goal from the
three and on the third down run where they were
trying to close the game out, so he was still
out there and the most critical situations.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Also liked it, he said.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
Darnell's three hundred plus pounds, which we all know to
be true. Even though the Steelers list him at two
sixty yea. He had been to sixty more since freaking
junior high. He's massive. But you know, we'll see how
they choose to play it. As for that block field goal,
that was on Friarmuth, and he's not ducking that.
Speaker 9 (31:54):
I was technique by me unacceptable. He's gotta learn from that.
In credit to him, he had a great move.
Speaker 5 (32:01):
But.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
All right, I wouldn't expect anything else from him.
Speaker 8 (32:06):
I wouldn't give up on Pat Frearmuth. But I do
think their offense just well, I.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
Thought who they had.
Speaker 6 (32:13):
If it's square peg, round hole, you can't hold it
against them, you know what I mean? Like if they
have changed things offensively so that he doesn't fit in.
When you have the head coach saying yeah, when you
playing four three teams, you can't put a two hundred
and fifty pound guy out there to block a d end.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Then it's like, all right, well it.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
Seems like your offensive package is going to require that
regardless of the defense going forward, not necessarily.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
And I would also say, you know, he's got to
play a little better. Uh, he had a chance to
make a huge play against the atle he's dropped the ball.
Speaker 10 (32:43):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
There was some mess throws game.
Speaker 8 (32:45):
There was some miscommunication with Rogers on a third down
in New England that that could have been a roam.
Speaker 10 (32:52):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (32:52):
Rodgers also missed him at New England. He threw behind
him and hit the defensive back in the back of that.
I mean, they've been trying to go to him periodically,
but I don't think they have anybody on this offense
it's going to be a great Fantasy League player because
they're they're they're diverse, and they want to be diverse.
Speaker 7 (33:09):
I mean, I would say the running back is the
best fantasy player on the Steelers offense.
Speaker 8 (33:14):
They don't score eight a week, but that that should
change if they get better at doing other stuff besides
dump it to the right hook.
Speaker 11 (33:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (33:22):
Yeah, but I don't think there's gonna be even Dk
Metcalf as good as he is. You know, there might
be that one or two one on one reps a
game he gets and maybe there's a splash play, but
they're not going to have that guy that, oh my god,
fourteen hundred yards receiving eleven touchdowns, twelve hundred yards rushing.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
It's not gonna work out that way.
Speaker 7 (33:41):
I just think when we're talking about who's going to
step up in Calvin Austen's absence, if we're not talking
about John New and Pat Fryarmuth, what are we talking about.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
I mean that we thought about Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller,
but that's who they're paying all the money to. Mike Is,
but the other.
Speaker 8 (33:55):
Guys are The other guys are on the team too.
I mean that's the way money is a huge factor
as you're forming the team because you got to keep
it under the cap. But once the team is formed,
they're not looking at it like that. We got to
throw up to the Friedmans because he's making eight times
with Scotty capital.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Traft capital matters.
Speaker 7 (34:13):
You're you're paying a guy that much money to signify
the importance that he is as a player, And if
you're willing to leapfrog him for a guy who has
done nothing in the league, then why are you paying
that guy that money.
Speaker 8 (34:26):
Well, that's a different argument. They're not looking at the
game plan saying we're going to the guy. Oh I
know that, Okay, Yeah, I'm aware of that. I'm just saying,
like they think they get a match up with Scotty
Miller against Cleveland, They're going to go to Scotty Miller.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
And we'll see for works topic.
Speaker 8 (34:43):
They've done some stuff this year that we all were
very skeptical about, and they're right a lot so far.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
I completely agree.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
I mean, I love what they did against the Vikings, just.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
Warren and gain Well and Calvin Austin and some of
these guys that they've made. Rogers talking about Rogers, I
was kind of on the Rogers train, But they were
talking in the spring about Calvin Austin's number two. I
don't mean, why you guys are even asking me about
this receivers coach And I'm like, cause he's not well,
it turns out he is Abby.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
What's coming up?
Speaker 3 (35:14):

Welcoming our friend from the Steelers Audio Network, brought you

Speaker 2 (36:12):
Missy Matthews, what's up missing?
Speaker 11 (36:16):
Hi guys? Happy Thursday?
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yeah, I mean it's Steelers Thursday.
Speaker 4 (36:21):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (36:22):
That's great.
Speaker 11 (36:23):
Finally we're back.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
We're Missy.
Speaker 6 (36:25):
What's the number one priority for the Steelers facing the
Browns this Sunday. What do you think is number one
on the concern list for Mike Tomlin.
Speaker 11 (36:34):
Don't let Miles Garrett wreck your game and make you
one dimensional.
Speaker 10 (36:37):
And I think you know.
Speaker 11 (36:38):
Building out what they did against the Vikings, especially in
terms of running the ball, so hopefully you know the
week off, you're getting some players back. It sounds like
in terms of help early bye week. I didn't love
at first, but kind of love it now, So we'll
see how that goes.
Speaker 6 (36:56):
Yeah, I mean it does seem to work in their
favorite given how much attrition has accrued across the division,
and they can make some hay early in the year
right now and get a little bit of an insurmountable
lead with two straight AFC North wins. Here with Cleveland
and Cincinnati back to back, both of them seem to
be a little bit in flux right now. Cincinnati seems
(37:18):
to be putting up a little bit of fight with
that dealing of Flacco and benching Browning, but I'm not
sure how that leaves things in terms of stability in
Cleveland right now. Getting rid of a corner and you're
starting former starting quarterback in the course of three days,
might signify a bit of a white flag being flown
(37:39):
by the organization. The head coach goes, yeah, I had
no idea we were trading Flaco.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
That was news to me.
Speaker 6 (37:46):
And they're coming back from London, so I would think
you're getting it a pretty unstable Cleveland Browns team coming
into Akrosher Stadium on Sunday.
Speaker 11 (37:58):
I mean, but don't you love that? I mean, imagine,
you know, we all know what we felt like coming
home from Dublin last week. Now, granted there was probably
a little bit more fun than what that team had,
but that does kind of suck to come back and
to play that game. Of course, you know, it's it's
not like they're traveling across the country to go play
the Chargers or somebody. It's at least close for them.
(38:21):
But I'm cool with it. And I also think, you know,
the Steelers defense was decimated with injuries those first three
weeks even four, really, and no one was crying about
it or using it as an excuse. And I just
feel like all these other AFC nors teams are whining. Dude,
it's across the league. Injuries happened, So I don't really
feel bad for anybody. And as you said, Randy, like
(38:45):
two big AFC Norse games. You get those two wins,
you know you're starting to add to that cushion that
makes you feel a little bit better. Knowing that there
isn't another by week coming up, so you have to
try to stay as healthy as possible, knowing down the
stretch you got some tough games coming up up on
the Steeler schedule.
Speaker 7 (39:02):
Put your coaching hat on for a second, Missy. Guys
that are injured and making their way back, are you
keeping them out of this game?
Speaker 4 (39:10):
Are you?
Speaker 7 (39:10):
Are you just going full board knowing that you got
to make a trip up to Cincinnati later in the week.
Speaker 11 (39:17):
No, I think well it does sound good for like
Alex high Smith and Joey Porter, Jalen Warren, I think
what they do today will really, you know, kind of
maybe determine that. And obviously, if they don't have a
setback on Friday, Jalen Ramsey and Calvin Austin, I'm kind
of like, even if somehow they're able to go, I
(39:39):
might save them for a third day. I just I
hope you don't need them. I'm probably gonna regret saying
that out loud, but at the same time, it's not
worth it in my opinion. And I think that, you know,
this is only the second home game technically obviously Croke
Park was a home game, but the second game in Pittsburgh.
(40:02):
So I think, you know, fans are fired up about
this team. Regardless, it's going to be another beautiful day.
I think the juice is going to be there for sure,
and obviously, knowing what's at stake in terms of AC
North Division wins and what that can do for your
chances of, you know, making the playoffs and having home games,
it's huge.
Speaker 6 (40:22):
I'm actually seeing rain in the forecast on Sunday, at
least that's what it says on my iPhone Weather right now,
seventy five percent chants of rain, but who knows that
could be at.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
Night before they buy. Yeah, that's what it says on
my iPhone. But I don't only bother sideline reporters, we
don't have to.
Speaker 4 (40:36):
Worry about that.
Speaker 6 (40:36):
Yeah, you mentioned Croke Park being a home game. I
think that, you know, according to Patrick Queen, is better
than a home game, and I think that the fans
are really going to be feeding off that. I think
it's going to be a crazy atmosphere this Sunday for
the one o'clock kickoff, which makes me wonder how aggressive
they'll be against Dylan gabriel second game as a Arty quarterback.
(41:00):
I mean, the crowd can states, yeah, and that's great,
that Steelers crowd could really make it tougher on him.
I wonder if they're just gonna take take away the
run and try to make him beat them, or if
they're gonna let it, you know, let him come to them,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 11 (41:21):
I mean both options are great. And I think because
as Bill said, literally first start in the United States,
I'm sure London was a different atmosphere. It didn't look
like either team completely took over that game. Anybody who
watched Croak the game in Dublin and Croke Park, you're like, oh, yeah,
Steelers fans, and I think that you're right. You know,
(41:42):
in terms of having to use the silent count and
things like that. There's a lot of ways to show
a rookie, you know, kind of like another welcome to
the NFL. Yes, he fared well, you know, he had
his chances against the Vikings and his first start officially,
but I just think, you know, man have a TJ. Water,
Nick Herban come at you a few times might make
(42:05):
you think twice about decisions. And I think, you know,
obviously their rookie running back is also spectacular, so it
is something in terms of stopping the run is probably
where they should start in terms of the Steelers defense
and then making their quarterback make some crazy decisions hopefully.
Speaker 6 (42:22):
I'm actually surprised Tomlin and I didn't see the whole
press conference on Tuesday. I'm surprised he didn't bring up
He occasionally will invoke the hey, we're going to need
the fans to be there, because it really does seem
to that could be a real big factor in making
it a lot tougher on Dylan Gabriel.
Speaker 11 (42:40):
Oh, I mean, I think he realizes he doesn't need
to say that. You know, usually Steelers Browns, you don't
have people like, hey, can you get me tickets? You know,
things like that. Again, second game in Pittsburgh, they're sitting
at three and one. You know what's at stake. They've
beat the Browns in the regular season twenty one straight
(43:00):
games in Pittsburgh. Let's keep that streak going. You know,
fire a code or something they like to do that
it's true after a lot so like let's let's keep
their traditions going.
Speaker 4 (43:13):
They do like to do that.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
