we can't we you know we. I'm going to the game.
I'm not waiting for the call, so I'm like, let's go.
So Rachel, because she's the best, She's like she called
the place and was like, hey, so she rescheduled me
for tomorrow with somebody different. I'm like, okay. But then
my real doctor felt so bad she missed me. She
called me. I was at my seat at the game

(00:28):
and she calls. I'm like, oh, that's my doctor. I
better take it. I put my headphones on and gave
her the story and between it's.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Three nothing doctors.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
And so this poor nice old lady next to me
had to hear everything about my call, about my colonotope,
about about my view, about.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
My balls, my hurdy. I'm like, no, my balls are
feeling good. Brandy Bellman and the DV morning show Joe
Barnick with us this morning.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Yeah, I mean, you're you're a delight to sit next
to it at a Penguins game. We always have a
good time, yes, absolutely, talking about your balls.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Uh. Two points. Penguin's got two points last night. No
doubt about it.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Sidney Crosby two goals, incredible, The power play looked amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
We didn't blow it at the end. Rusty Razor with
the big game winner from the three penalty kills also
so special. Teams solid once again.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Solid once again, and overcoming adversity was huge.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
How about the kindle to Crosby connection.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah he's on the top. Yeah, pretty look so good.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
No, remember I think I was in here in July saying,
oh my god, that draft pick. I couldn't be any wronger.
I give it the biggest apologies.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
I remember that.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
I remember on my two for talking with Josh, I
had a conniption. Yeah, well you wanted the kid that
the Flyers.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Ended up getting.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yes, but yes, And then I found out he was
a fire fan his whole life. So I'm like, well,
I'm so glad we didn't take him. It would have
been like hiring Hextall. We have a we have a
Wolf's Global. What do you got going on over there?
Abbey News.

Speaker 5 (02:01):
This hour is brought to you by Better call Cy.

Speaker 6 (02:03):
Cloudy and breezy today, rain this afternoon with a high
of sixty seven Saturday, Mostly cloudy and comfortable, high of
fifty seven, and on Sunday it is going to be
cloudy and breezy. It does sound like the rain showers
might turn into snow late and that will bring us
into our Monday. Sunday's high is going to be fifty nine.
The first trailer has been released for the upcoming Michael
Jackson biopic Michael, and the film is going to see

(02:26):
the King of Pop's real life nephew, Ja'afar Jackson take
on the title role. So if you do watch the
trailer which I sent you guys in your DMS on Twitter,
he looks very much like him.

Speaker 5 (02:37):
So it's a very great casting.

Speaker 6 (02:41):
Oscar nomine Coleman Domingo is going to play Joe Jackson,
his father.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Oh wow, that's a good cast. That's a good casting
right there.

Speaker 6 (02:49):
April twenty fourth, twenty twenty six, is when this is
supposed to come out. But you start the trailer, you
see Jackson in the studio with Quincy Jones as they
prepare to lay down a take on a song apparently
for the Thriller Area era rather and you'll get glimpses
of him on stage. It looks like it's going to
be very Bohemian Rhapsody.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Though, yep, this looks.

Speaker 6 (03:09):
Very so I would not expect any gritty take on
Michael Jackson.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Like there's not gonna be a scene where Webster is
running screaming help.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
No, oh wow. He looks exactly like a lot. Yeah,
it's like the ice Cube movie with his sound in it.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Yes, exactly.

Speaker 6 (03:34):
So Yeah, if you just want a simple celebration of
Michael Jackson, I think this is gonna be your movie.
But the thing that I pointed out to you, Randy,
is that the very beginning of the trailer, they're putting, like,
you know, lyrics up on a corkboard, like they're deciding
what to put in the song and everything. And one
of the things is, you know, I'm the same of
Senmon whatever. They they're like putting that up on the

(03:56):
board fanatically, but we know that's not.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
The lyrics, off the lyrics at all.

Speaker 6 (04:02):
So that's a very odd mistake for them to put
right in the trailer.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Did you think also that they didn't need to put
that big of a fake nose on him? Probably not.
Did you see the size of his nose?

Speaker 7 (04:16):
Bill?

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (04:16):
Yeah I did, yep.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
I mean it looks like they're doing the Getty least.

Speaker 4 (04:20):
Right Michael Jackson meets Rock's hand.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Is he gonna get whiter during the movie.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
And lose his nose completely?

Speaker 1 (04:30):
The Benjamin Button effect?

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Yeah, Webster goes running through the Neverland with his nose like.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
He didn't get really creepy until he was white. What's
up with that?

Speaker 1 (04:40):
You know? I there.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
You can't account for trauma enough, is all I can
say is parents, Look what you can do to somebody.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
Like from thirty thousand feet. I understand why he was
the way he was, Like he never got a childhood,
so he liked hang out with children. Like I can
actually mentally, intellectually understand that. But when you zoom in,
you're like, what the hell's going on here?

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Dude?

Speaker 4 (05:09):
You can't be having sleepovers? Man, well you're forty.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
It's like that the joke that you had in our
algorithm segment yesterday from that comic.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
It's weird.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
It's weird being thirty five. Like I want.

Speaker 8 (05:21):
Kids, you know I do. I'm because I'm good with kids.
And when you're good with kids, you got to have one.
You know, you can't because when you can't just play
with kids. We live in a dub world. I see
kids everywhere. They're like, hey, I'm like, we can't, dude,
Like I I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
I know it would be so fun. Yeah, hide and
seek and I'm a zombie.

Speaker 8 (05:52):
But your mom wouldn't like it, and I can't. It's true,
they're out there. I saw a kid on the subway
he like waved at me. I was just like, dude,
I could rock your world.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
You have no idea how much fun we could have. Alas,

(06:29):
those are all the sound effects he made in Smooth Criminal. Yes,
that's awesome.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Some comedian has to have some black I mean, has
to have the bit how he was regular until he
turned white.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah right, I mean they have not. Yeah, Bill, just
un lockdown. Yeah that sounds like a promise if you
can do it.

Speaker 4 (06:46):
No, I can't do that.

Speaker 6 (06:51):
So Charles Barkley hung up his jersey in two thousand,
but he rid himself of another article of clothing years sooner.
The analy some commentator, at sixty two years old, sidestep
football talk amid the Arizona Cardinals late seventeen point lead
over the Dallas Cowboys during Monday Night Football to answer
a hard hitting question posed by Peyton Manning.

Speaker 5 (07:11):
During their Peyton Manning broadcast and.

Speaker 9 (07:14):
Chuck, is it true and you've burned all of your
underwear almost twenty years ago and haven't worn any sets.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (07:23):
I realized that underwear would they were not a necessity.
So I had a big fire to Peyton, So I'm
always going comanche un commando.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
I burned. I burned all my underwear about thirty years ago.

Speaker 10 (07:41):
I can say it was a big fire. So I'm
always going commando for the rest of my life.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
I didn't need to know that Comanche is hilarious. Yeah,
it kind of works too, I guess. Yeah, well the
Indians in It wear underwear. Well I wouldn't think so. Yeah,
not sure. Yeah, I need to know that about true. No,
I'm thinking he might want to rethink that. No, No,
just atrateg Burt never wears underwear, right.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
He didn't for a long time. I don't know. It
was like he has like a tatile tactile issue because
he would wear no underwear and then he had no
belt on his jeans and he would take his shirt
off and it.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Was like plumber crack and plumber crack. Yeah, pubic bone
sticking out.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
Yeah, And that used to be a thing. That he
only did. I know, we're talking a lot about Bert
this morning, but that used to, like the taking the
shirt off thing used to be a thing that he
used to do for the first like ten minutes of
his act. He did his entire special with his shirt off.
Like it used to just be like a thing that
would be at the beginning of the show, like he
would he would chug a beer completely, he would drink

(08:51):
a full Heineken, and then he would take his shirt
off and the crowd would go nuts. Yeah, and it
was a nice party trick and it was like palate cleanser,
like whatever they saw before that was done.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Yeah, and it's.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Like careful what you you know, kick off as your
calling card because pretty soon you might be a redneck
is what all they're waiting for, you know what I mean? Well,
you know, but that worked in his favor so much though,
It's just it says so much. It is the perfect
like subtext for all of his comedy. Dude with no

(09:24):
shirt on, chugging a beer, and it's kind of like
what they paid for.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
And I'm not trying to bring this back to Bill Burr,
but I remember we did an outside in COVID with
this outside place. It was freezing and we're all wearing hats.
And Bill took his hat off to go on stage,
Like you're not gonna wear a hat? He goes, he is,
They want to see the bald head. Yeah, it's really Yeah,
I'm trying to talk tell secrets out of school, but

(09:49):
now the fun it's show biz. You know, it matters
what you wear. Yeah, Like I never wear hats on stage.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Hats are tough. Shorts.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Oh shorts, that's just unless you're Aaron Berg and you know,
and you're five foot two. It doesn't matter because they
look like. I love Aeron Berg, you know what I mean.
He's he's the only guy that wears shorts on stage.
Is like, that's kind of his thing is. But he's,
you know, Aaron He's he's on way too many steroids
and no one benches more than him. And he does comedy.

(10:20):
Oh really, Yeah, I love the guy. He's so funny.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah, he's he's like bodybuilder jacked right. Well, comics have
a lot of time.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Profession for you know, someone who wants to spend a
lot of time in the gym.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Not as much anymore, though he used to be a
lifestyle being a comic. Now you have to get up
and get on Instagram and TikTok.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Yeah. Used to just be a sleep in and do nothing.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
It's hilarious because being a comic was the opposite of
the ground set, and now it is like you say,
like that is the path that people are taking. In fact,
that part of it is more important than the funny. Yes,
but I want to be an old bitter guy and
say that. But yeah, true though, yeah, but it's just
the hustle does pay off. It's just that we didn't
have to do that back in the day like it

(11:07):
now was a job. It used to be like if
I wanted to have a job on work, you know, Billy,
you remember those oh my god, yeah, well that you
have a job.

Speaker 11 (11:18):
All right.

Speaker 6 (11:19):
According to influencer Haley Bailey, it wasn't the motion of
the ocean, it was the size of the boat that
sank her.

Speaker 5 (11:26):
Marriage with her NFL ex Matt khalil.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Okay, I saw this story and Abby, I couldn't tell
which way she was going with this.

Speaker 6 (11:35):
You tell me what you think, because I'm not sure either.

Speaker 5 (11:39):
Per page six.

Speaker 6 (11:40):
During a No Holds Barred Twitch interview with streamer Marlin
The thirty three year old former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model,
confessed that her ex husband's assets were the biggest factor
in their twenty two divorce. We tried everything, she explained,
noting that she was willing.

Speaker 5 (11:57):
To try therapy with doctors.

Speaker 6 (11:59):
She said, it was impossible unless you know you're going
to be in tears.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
Okay, So that would lead me to believe it's because
it was big, big yes, or was she saying in tears,
like just upset.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Just being like, come on, knows, there's nothing there.

Speaker 5 (12:18):
Now, are you Irish?

Speaker 6 (12:21):
You see them.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Together, it's a big guy, right, So.

Speaker 5 (12:25):
If he was a big guy, but he wasn't a
big guy, yeah, that would be tough.

Speaker 6 (12:31):
They were together for three years before they got married,
so it would seem odd that, you know, you didn't
know why you were as.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
Having been in locker rooms, you know, into my twenties
playing sports. If somebody had that much of the Irish curse,
they would stop playing sports. It has to be the
other way around. It's got to be the other way around.
She claimed.

Speaker 6 (12:57):
He was like point one percent of the population, so
it's got to be that he was just a hammer.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
And what what a great reason to be divorced. You
know what I mean if you're the guy you know,
I mean he's retweeting that interview. You know, everybody has
a burden to bear.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
I wonder if there's a support for those people, not
for the guys with well Joe, is there one what
side wearing?

Speaker 3 (13:40):
You know what's funny is I saw a podcast this
week and they were talking about Dick Cheney because Dick
Cheney passed away. Do you know that Dick Cheney supposedly
had a huge penis something they joked about constantly in
the political circles is that Dick Cheney had a unit.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
Wow, which is consistent.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
I thought someone with a little thing would be the
one trying to start wars and blow things like everybody's cool, man.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
I got a massive hog. Can't we all get along?

Speaker 4 (14:22):
Seems like me?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
But you know they like so like legendarily comedian.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
The Milton Pearl had one that was like, you know,
we we've talked about that a bunch of times.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
It's part of comedy lore.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
But in that same conversation about Dick Cheney, they said
that Bill Maher apparently has a like inordinately huge member,
which surprised me.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Also, I don't know why he just doesn't.

Speaker 12 (14:47):
See Yeah, but yeah, there's something about guys with as
Ariana Grande coined it, b D. Yeah, I had that
energy that just says, wow, you got a lot of
confidence and you shouldn't and so that tells me something else.

Speaker 3 (15:06):
Pete Davidson benefited from that for a while, like everybody
was just saying that about Pete.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yeah, but then I think he kind of downplayed it later.

Speaker 6 (15:15):
He downplayed it because I think that it started to
work to his disadvantage then, because he's a very anxious
person as.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
Well, and the expectation was that whoever he was with
was about to see you know, you know, Big Jung
stood it would turn out to be you know.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
About average, but nobody wants that kind of hype.

Speaker 4 (15:37):
Yeah, yes, would.

Speaker 5 (15:39):
It be a surprise.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
He did a special where he talked about that, and
he was like, that was cold of her to do
that because basically she just set the expectations way there.

Speaker 13 (15:52):
You go.

Speaker 4 (15:53):
Yeah, but then all of a sudden, he's dating a
Kardashian and those girls don't come around unless you got
a serious whistle Yeah yeah, yeah, NBA style, Yes.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Right right, you gotta have NBA Tom for that.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
BD though, is different than BD all.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
Oh, I'm saying, were you amazed? At?

Speaker 12 (16:16):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I understand what you're saying. I'm sorry to interrupt. Were
you amazed? Now?

Speaker 2 (16:20):
I read twice day this was he amazed? He dictations
like eighty two years old. I thought he'd be like.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
One hundred and thirty. I think he was eighty two
in two thousand.

Speaker 4 (16:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yeah, it's like he's been in old s ob since
he was like twenty.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Some people like that. Steve Martin.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Steve Martin looked like he was fifty years old when
he was in his twenties. Always, Steve Martin has always
been an older guy. You don't think him as an
old old guy, like not on money, but like you know,
the gray haired older dude. But he just stayed that
way for thirty five years. Yeah, well prematurely he's like
in parenthood. He was like he wasn't that old.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
That's like when you see like Archie Bunker was like
ten years younger than me when he was Archie Bunker.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (17:06):
Wilford Brimley, right, wasn't that the big thing?

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Wilford Brimley I think was fifty three years old. In Cocoon.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
And he's playing a grandfather who's like on verge of
death and is going to another planet.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
We're never gonna get older and we're never going to die.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
But he was only he was the same age as
Tom Cruise and like Mission impossible too.

Speaker 4 (17:28):
Right, Tom Cruise is hanging off the side of aeroplane
and what Will Brimley was sitting in a boat that
was going up to an alien planet.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
Where we're going We're never going to get older, We're
never gonna die.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
You know what's funny about Wilford Brimley too, is that
he was a badass. He was like a stunt man,
and he was like a kind of considered somebody you
wouldn't mess with, you know, a stunt man. Yeah, well
I think like his character in the Firm, Yeah, that
was kind of who he was as a younger man,

(18:05):
like you scary, Yeah, like a dude you did not
mess with it. And it's just not the perception we
had him had of him as he grew older, where
he's just kind of he was Grandpa Brimley for the
last twenty years.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, like your oatmeal salesman can kick your ass's.

Speaker 6 (18:21):
Right, Claudy and breezy today rain this afternoon high of
sixty seven.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Sports is Up, brought to you by Bridgeville Appliance.

Speaker 9 (19:58):
There's blood in the special Teams water in advance of
Steelers Chargers. On the Steelers side, there's that fake punt
Indianapolis successfully ran at the end of the first quarter
last Sunday that needs to be cleaned up.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Here's Ben Scernick.

Speaker 9 (20:12):
Did you guys have an inkling they were gonna fake
it or did they come up with the play last week?

Speaker 1 (20:17):
That's what you know. That's a pretty common fake that
team's run.

Speaker 4 (20:20):
So yeah, they got us on that, and we'll have
to get back to the John board.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (20:25):
I didn't like that from the start because they didn't
have the defense out there. There's a punt return defense
called defense safe for something of that nature, where it's
it's not the regular return team, it's a return guy
and a bunch of guys who know how to defend.
They had to punt return team out there on fourth
and one and they got got.

Speaker 4 (20:46):
I mean that happens. Steelers noticed a trend. I forget
who we were playing, and you know James Pierre, all
he had to do was catch the ball.

Speaker 9 (20:54):
He's wid had to do is catch the ball. The
Chargers have their kicking game issues as well. Those include
long snapping, the worst punt and kickoff coverage units in
the NFL, and a sixty seven yard punt return for
a touchdown. It was hemorrhaged last Sunday in Nashville. All
that has Steeler's punt return at Keishawn Williams thinking Sunday
might be the day. Then again, Williams thinks that every Sunday,

(21:17):
when you look at your tape preparing for a game
and you see the team give one up, does that.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Affect you at all?

Speaker 15 (21:22):
It makes you a little more excited, you know, just
knowing as there. But you know, regardless they gave one
up or not. You know, my attentions are to pop
one and everything I'm preparing to do so, so regardless
if they gave one up or not, Montes are saying.

Speaker 9 (21:34):
Now, Williams confidence is such that he offered a bold
prediction for the weekend.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
It was for Saturday, not Sunday.

Speaker 15 (21:41):
Oh you know how you gonna do. They won't handle business.
They won't handle business for real.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
That was for Jake.

Speaker 9 (21:47):
Yeah, that's hilarious. Keishawn Williams. I you the awake five.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
I like that dude.

Speaker 4 (21:53):
Yeah, I like him too.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
He looks like he's gonna pop one.

Speaker 9 (21:55):
They've been really close a bunch of times, and you
know the Chargers are bad. If this so, this might
be the time part of the problem. And addition to
the bad coverage that the punt return that got returned
to the house was just blasted down the middle. Can't
do that in the NFL anymore. You got to pick
up side and angle it. Ye, give you guys a chance.

(22:17):
You know, there's one problem with this game, guys, and
it's justin Herbert is freaking Superman.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
Well I would couch that a bit by saying he
is capable of that. There are times when he looks
like he was overestimated, and then there's times he lives
up to the billing. But he has not been consistently
the dominating NFL QB. They're you know what I mean,

(22:49):
likes his numbers is a joke. Yes, so is Daniel Jones,
you know what I mean, like it, but not.

Speaker 9 (22:56):
Like this guy. I'm not saying Dale Jones isn't a
good player, but well we might have just broke Daniel Jones.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
So, I mean, Harvard is.

Speaker 9 (23:07):
First or second in passing, he's leading, he led their
team in rushing last game, and he's getting crushed.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
Well, both of those things. He's getting up and we
talk about help. Yeah, both of those things because they
don't have a running game.

Speaker 9 (23:21):
Yeah, it's statistically they're good because it's body of work.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
They're like tenth in the league.

Speaker 9 (23:26):
But the last coup last week, in particular, other than Herbert,
it just wasn't there.

Speaker 3 (23:31):
This is to me one of those teams that you
just have to stay consistent against and they ultimately.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
You wear them down.

Speaker 9 (23:39):
They can't go the full you know, ten rounds and
you've got to keep him, but.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
They will knock you out if you let him.

Speaker 9 (23:46):
You got to keep him in the pocket too, yes,
because if he gets out on the wing, he may
run for thirty yards or he may throw a bullet
to somebody on the run when your defense breaks down,
because that's what happens when the quarterback gets outside the pocket.
Keep conventional and just keep pounding away and it should
take care of itself.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
They should win this game. Steelers should win this game.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
I mean if the Steelers, Yeah, I know they their dogs,
but they're better.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
They're a better team than the Chargers. I agree.

Speaker 9 (24:14):
I think the Chargers are a good team, but they
are more. They're mortally wounded. Man, those injuries are brutal.
And if the second half of Green Bay Steelers show
up without enough fight, then they got a real problem,
because the Chargers are going to fight that. They're the
Knight in Monty Python. They got no legs and no
arms and they're sitting there talking smack. Come on, yeah,

(24:37):
that's that's who they are.

Speaker 4 (24:39):
And it's Herbert too nailed it.

Speaker 9 (24:42):
Somebody's gonna run the ball behind those three hundred pound
refrigerator guys leading and and we'll see tougher team's gonna win.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
I mean, it's kind of how we felt with Ben,
Like that's how it is when you have a franchise quarterback.
It doesn't matter who's injured somehow if if you have
a guy like that, he's gonna make it happen.

Speaker 9 (25:03):
And I think against a guy like that, this is
the type of game. And I know the Steelers aren't undefeated,
but I feel so much better about the Steelers with
Rogers a quarterback than what we've seen recently because this
is the kind of game in years past where the
offense would come up with a thirteen point laying of
an egg and they'd find a way to get beat.

Speaker 4 (25:22):
Although I will say this about Rogers, he's done a
couple really dumb things this year and hasn't had to
pay for it, Like when he ran and tried to
almost score and got crumpled up at the goal line.
If he would have fumbled that or got hurt, we'd
be bitching about that because that was Russell Wilson like
last year where and he's scrambling against Baltimore and then
fumbled our season away.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
The sideline was right there, he's right.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
There, just stepped out of me and it reminded me
of Byron left Witch and he was running on that
exact same spot.

Speaker 16 (25:51):
When he heard himself by nobody tackling. Nobody tackling. Yeah,
he broke his ribs. He was old because he was
he was Wilford Brimley the Caps five to three last night.

Speaker 9 (26:01):
They blew three nothing lead in a little over ten
minutes in the second period. There was also another Caps
goal that got reviewed into no goal because it was
inches off side. I mean when they fell apart in
the second period, they fell apart, but they got it
back together.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Joe. I know you don't whin the Stanley Cup.

Speaker 9 (26:17):
In November, but I think this was a game that
prevented the season from veering off course, not not that
it's still Mike, you.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Are one thousand right. They needed that double line.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
I was just like, we cannot go more downhill than
what happened in Toronto. I was so worried because then
the Kings are not an easy team to know and
they never played Jersey well, yeah, exactly, the other sweet
new knows what the hell yeah happened. That was such
a huge game to come back and I was worried
because second periods when teams get exposed. As you know, Mike,

(26:49):
it's like bad teams are bad in the second period.

Speaker 9 (26:54):
But it looked just I was really impressed with their
first period again. Oh yeah, and in the second period, Okay,
here we go. This is this is what I've been
watching for three years.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
And we we hit a couple of pipes. There's a
couple of bats. Rusty, yeah, rusty twice twice. But they
came back and I'll tell you what she loves made
a couple magnificent saves.

Speaker 9 (27:16):
He did a couple did throw him kind of, but
he didn't make a couple. What really pissed me off.
I don't know if you get a great look at
it in the arena, but the first goal, Don Tomasino's
along the boards and he just half asses a blind
backhand pass along the wall to nobody, turnover past the slot.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
Bang.

Speaker 9 (27:33):
Now the game changes because you gave them a goal
when they were up three nothing.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
That's what I said.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Me and the super Genius were talking last night after
the game, and I was like everyone the crowd wanted
to blame the referees. It was three puff passes, just
rip it, get it out, not this fancy dancing mamby, pamby.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
Mamby.

Speaker 9 (27:57):
I was the guy who coaches the team in The
Winner and brought cast the Pirate games in the summer.
Don Thomasino would have a seat in the press box
next game.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
I don't think Don Thomasino has earned his sweater this season.
I will just say, mister how we haven't seen mister
bros up here. I have no idea, but hey, we're
winning and right now music can walk on water in
my opinion, and Dubis had a great summer.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
So that place had to be rocking last night. It
was in the first two goals, it was.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
It was.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
It was beautiful power play and then then you can
hear a pin drop and then I mean Gino to
Rusty was just past.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
What do you think of those unis?

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Oh yeah, the nacho cheese.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Anything that is. I'll tell you anything that isn't the
effeminate pigeon. Have you ever gone to that place? Though? Yeah,
I mean that's right.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
The corner from Peas Cosmos are amazing. And I really
don't like the I don't like the powder blue. It's
I don't like when I do. Maybe once a year.
You want to do that, that's cool, But I'm.

Speaker 4 (29:07):
You don't like draw strings in your because.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
I remember when powder blue wasn't ironic. It was because
we weren't worthy of wearing steeler colors and we got
beat seven to every game.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
I don't like when we wear books.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
I see what we powder blue for the first when
the snowfowl for the first frame, that frame, that sweater
after that black and gold.

Speaker 9 (29:30):
I'll tell you, I love the new jerseys, but the
color of the jersey doesn't match the stripe on the pants.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
And that's driving me crazy.

Speaker 9 (29:39):
Like, if you're gonna invest all that money in new jerseys,
just get new pants. Yeah that you should go with
all black pants with that look, you don't need to stripe.
But the stripe doesn't match and it sticks out. And
I noticed crap like that because I went to Michigan
State and we wear green and we can never match our.

Speaker 2 (29:57):
He we're fashion police. I do like I do like
the dark blue. When the Penguins were dark blue in
the mid seventies, I thought those.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Jerseys were rock. Those were those were pretty good. Yeah.
They never bring those ones back. Duck. Yeah, yeah, that
was my first game Rris.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
Kinderschuck was hovelics, Yeah, Russ Anderson, Eddie Shore all time hockey.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
All right, when we come back, the Low Kings are
in the coffee house.

Thanks to Dave Danishek and ken O Benton for joining us,
and ever buddy Joe Bartneck who's been live in studio
with us at Steelers Chargers Sunday Night and eight twenty
kickoff here on your radio Home of the Steelers one
A two point five DV. In here with the preamble
to kickoff, you can hear him as the buns on

(36:52):
the sandwich of the Steelers broadcast pregame and postgame hosts
Mike Persuda with the preamble to kickoff here on DV.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
It apparent of miracle.

Speaker 9 (37:09):
Would be needed last week against Indies, so Jalen Ramsey
channeled his inner Herb Brooks the night before the game
and his speech to his teammates that captured the spirit
of the thing. If we played him ten times, they
might win nine, but not this game. This time we
knocked them over. This time we turned them over because

(37:29):
we can. This time we are the greatest football.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
Team in the world.

Speaker 9 (37:36):
Ramsey let it on thicker and heavy year as he
went and borrowed text from a different address. We hear
highly resolved that these concepts have not been schemed.

Speaker 1 (37:45):
Indeed, that this team under.

Speaker 9 (37:47):
Tomlin shall have a new birth of contention, and the
a team of the defense, by the defense had for defense,
shall not perish from the burg Ramsey's tone was an
emotional one and also challenging.

Speaker 1 (38:01):
Ask not what the.

Speaker 9 (38:03):
Steelers can do for you, ask what you can do
for the Steelers. He even referenced the conversation with Steelers
icon Rocky Blier. Rock I said, sometime when the team
is up against it and the breaks are beating, the.

Speaker 1 (38:17):
Boys, tell them to give it all they got and
to load themselves up good with snuff and win just
one for the lipper.

Speaker 7 (38:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (38:28):
I don't know where I'll be that rock, but I'll
be a free safety, not in the slot. Ramsey crescendoed
with a patent in the back. I'll be proud to
lead you in the battle anytime, anywhere, and he finished
with a chip off the old Hickory.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
I love you guys. Are you ready for some football?

Speaker 9 (38:49):
Against such historical oratory, the Colts were toasted. The Chargers
might be this time given all the leaks they've been
springing along the offensive line. One of the potential plugs
is a big bopper acquire from New Orleans to be
Justin Herbert's new best buddy, an offensive tackle from of
all places, Clear Lake, Iowa, Clear Lake, Iowa.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
What could possibly go wrong? And Sunday evening made me shiver.

Speaker 9 (39:14):
With every blitz, Pittsburgh delivered bad news in the pocket,
the Chargers couldn't block it, and.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
The three men I admire most high Smith, Watt.

Speaker 9 (39:24):
And the QB Goat they caught the team plane for
the coast the day.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
Ramsey opined, Oh.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
Yeah, some good writing, Dicky, Mike Rosuda there, Steelers Chargers
eight twenty here on.

Speaker 1 (39:40):

Speaker 14 (44:36):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by Independence Health System Expert Care here and
Steelers Pro Shop. Get it direct from the team at
Shop dot Steelers dot com. Here's Tom Opperman, Steelers.

Speaker 22 (44:49):
We're trying to go for back and back Wednesday Sunday
night when they travel to Los Angeles to face the
Chargers on Sunday Night football. Standing in the way of
them in that accomplishment is Star Charger quarterback Justin Herbert.
Herbert has the second most touchdown passes of the season
so far with eighteen, and his twenty three hundred and
ninety passing yards.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Is also good for second most in the league.

Speaker 22 (45:05):
The Steelers defense is allowing opposing quarterbacks to throw for
two hundred ninety nine yards per game and is allowed
an opposing quarterback to eclipse three hundred yards passing in
three straight games. It's not just the threat of Herbert
through the air that the Steelers have to worry about, however.
He's also managed to rack up three hundred and five
rushing yards this season, the most of any quarterback in
the NFL, and Herbert is just nine yards back from
being the Chargers leading rusher as a team. For the

(45:27):
Steelers to be effective against Herbert, they'll have to get
some more of that dominating pass rush that generated five
sacks last week against the Colts. The Chargers are missing
both their stud tackles for the season and Rashaun Slater
and Joe Alt, and Herbert has been sacked twenty eight
times this year, the third most in the league. Making
Herbert's life uncomfortable is a massive key if the Steelers
want to pull the upset off in LA. Kickoff between
the Steelers and Chargers is this Sunday at eight twenty pm.

(45:50):
I'm Tom Opferman with the Steelers Report.
