Because we have such a high per capita percentage of churches, yes,
and chocolate chops. Church in a bar that's kind of
like all of Western Pa, right, church in a bar
on every corner. And the chocolate shop apparently the chocolate chop. Yeah,
sou and that's what's got it started. And truly the
first I mean I think the first day I'm thinking
about it.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
There's Dennis as an engineer.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
At QUED and he always stops and talks to me
in the edit room.

think I'm going to do a show on chocolate shops.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
He goes, well, then you're going to go to the
Pink House in Finleyville.

the list. And I said, okay. And then my see,
if Rick.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Tells me let's go to the pink House in Finleyville,

Yeah, Brandy Bellman and the DV morning show.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
I'd stay in the car. You go into the Packhouse show,
I'll stay out here. That won't that excuse won't work. Yeah,
I didn't. I stayed in the car. I didn't inhale.
Yeah right, Yeah, you're still complicit and I get it. Tonight,
Rick Seback's special on It's episode four, If is Lucky
to Live in Pittsburgh series on WQED at eight o'clock,
all about the local chocolate shops and you know the
(01:27):
ones that are spotted around western Pennsylvania, specifically.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Here in Pittsburgh, and they're all neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
I didn't realize we had so many that were like
the part of the neighborhood. I thought there was like
four or five big ones. I didn't realize there was
like dozens of them.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
That's pretty sweet. They're hiding in plain sight. They kind
of are. I never knew their around.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
And like I said to him, and I wasn't just
blowing smoke. I mean, I really do appreciate about those
shows that he has. I don't really have to care
about the product so much as I just like hearing
from the people.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
Everybody in Pittsburgh. Who has a job like that. It's
the most important thing that they do. Yeah, I know
every single thing about it, but the proud of it,
and they're so proud of it, and that's what makes
all of his shows incredibly special.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Speaking of proud, the two ladies that made that eggnog,
I am not an eggnog person. That one might have
been one of the most delicious things I've ever had
in my life. Kathy Nerdenberger, Dude, this is what made
me laugh so hard. Abby's like, what is the name
of the woman who made this so that we can
give her proper credit? And the name that comes flying
out of Rick mathis Kathy Nerderberger. And I'm like, of
course that's your name.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Was Itnederberger? Ordergnederberger? Yeah, Needberg.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
I do, in fact, But it's just such a Rick
Seaback name, of course. You know, it's never just like
Lisa Smith, right, It's always something very very ethnic. The
last name is totally Pittsburgh too. The first name, the
first name of is Pittsburgh. Be like, deb, Yeah, Kathy's
right up there. Kathy's pretty high up there, but you know, sure. Yeah,
(03:00):
So thanks to Rick for getting us drunk and bringing
us chocolate. My god, there's so much booze in that egg.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Geas he always does that, he brings treats. And at
first I'm like, this is amazing, and then in fifteen minutes,
I'm like, oh my god, what have I done?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Dude? I mean I took like three SIPs of it.
It's so boozy. It was like two full.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Shots of booze. Now I know why Rick so happy
all the time? Abby, what's going on over there?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Is this hour brought to you by Better Call Sy.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Mostly cloudy, breezy, and colder today a couple of snow showers.
It's a high of thirty, and you can expect flurries
tonight as well. Jack Nicholson had an interesting way with stalkers,
at least one particular stalker, one female stalker, Ben dreyve
This is the son of Jaws star Richard Driv Richard
(03:48):
I was in John's and a woman named Jeremy Rain.
Jeremy dated Nicholson in the early eighties, and Ben told
a crazy story that happened when they were together.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
This is.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Richard Dreyfus's wife, but before they were married. Yes, and
Ben Dreyfus's mom was dating Jack Nicholson.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
I want to get it straight, Okay.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Jack started getting disturbing phone calls from a woman and
they weirded him out so much that he told everyone
in the house to ignore her. One day, Jeremy was
at Jack's house when the woman showed up and knocked
on his door. Jeremy and Jack were kind of freaked out,
but they ended up in the living room with the stalker.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Somehow.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Jack told Jeremy to call for help, so she left
the room to go call for help. When she came back,
the living room was empty, so she's freaked out by that,
of course, and so she's looking for them because this
is a stalker.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
This is a dangerous situation.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
When she found them, they were in the bedroom and
Jack was receiving an oral favor from the stalker.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Jeremy lost it, obviously and screamed, what the f is
wrong with you? And Jack's response was shit for me?
Oral sex? What was I supposed to do? Say?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
No?
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Yeah, I mean I think Hollywood in the seventies was
a really sort of sexual wild West. Yeah, and that
probably didn't seem that weird to Jack Nicholson even though
it was weird to everybody else in the world. Don't
forget Jack Nickolson also did I think a couple of
years where he just was naked in his house and
if you went to his house, you were you had
(05:34):
He just he wanted everyone to be naked, and so
Harry Dean Stanton would go over and hang out with
him and just get naked and just walk around the
house and drink beer, smoke cigarettes, and they would just
be naked because they were that weird.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
So sounds right again.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
I talked about the cognitive effect of celebrity and you know,
when you're a billionaire, I said, that person had such
a great tweet about it, like it must be like
the cognitive effect of getting hit in kicked in the
head every day by a mule. You know, eventually you're
like I could do anything, you know, Like I think
celebrity has that similar thing. Joe, You're around all these
crazy show biz people all the time.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I am.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
They're not naked, unfortunately, noney of them. Right, Yeah, I
don't know a bird doesn't get naked and walk around
his house. Take your clothes out. No, I don't want that,
Like I mean me and BERSI love each other. I
don't want to smoke cigars naked with them all day.
I wouldn't imagine you would. Yeah, I don't understand the
like the fun of that. I don't want someone naked
(06:33):
on my couch. Yeah, you're talking like reading happy to
relax in the movie theater. It's something spray ego on your
love seat. Yeah no, well just think about that next
time you jump on your hotel bed spread and lay there.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Oh I ripped that thing off immediately angry. Yeah. Yeah, no,
I don't touch that thing at all. Those aren't nasty.
Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Yeah, because you know, and the couch in a hotel room, anything,
any piece of furniture.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I just picture like Larry King naked on it, you
know what I mean, because when you're in a hotel room,
you treat it the same way. Well, or I do it.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Yeah. Well, if I'm gonna sit on it, it's gonna
be buck ass naked.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Yeah all right, different guy to Wiener.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Here.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Oscar Meyer is looking for the newest.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Hotnogger, the person who is lucky enough to climb behind
the wheel of the Wienermobile and drive around the country.
The company announced that applications are now open to try
to become one of the drivers of the Wienermobile in
twenty twenty six. That program started back in nineteen eighty
eight and it was designed to develop top talent to
inspire future leaders who embody innovation, creativity and community spirits.
(07:47):
They usually get about five thousand applications. They cut that
down to a dozen and technically you are the Oscar
Meyer Wienermobile spokesperson and you go through a two week
immersive onboarding process. So apparently it's very intense. You have
regular meetings with various teams and you need to be
a people person of course to do this. But you
(08:08):
have to have the ballad driver's license, good driving record,
ability to work long weekends. But they give you thirty
five thousand dollars, an additional weekly allowance of one hundred
and fifty dollars, and you get health benefits and hotel.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Costs are covered.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
It's a good gig, but I would never get it
the way I drive, I'd be putting that Wiener into everything.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Joey Bean, never change, dude, I knew the person. I
knew somebody who drove that who's when I was grown up.
We need two famous people.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
One was the he was the Notre Dame mascot for
a year, and the other was this girl and she
drove the wienermobile and they were like the most famous
people in our circles growing up.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Wow, Like, I.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Don't think it's as cool of a gig as it
sounds like, because after a while, the novelty of it
wears off. Sure, I gotta get up and drive that
Wiener around again today.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
To do it for the lulls kind of job.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
I think I had a friend that was working in
some capacity like spam had some kind of version of that,
and I don't know if there was like a spammobile basically.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
A spam mobile.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
When she was doing that, she was kind of a
hippie and was kind of like, yeah, I know, I
want to travel the world for spam, And I know
she had a lot of spam swag's cool and used
to give that away, like so I have some spam
magnets of her. She was just like, look at all
this fun free spam stuff I have.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
And I'm like, do you eat spam? And she's like,
oh god no.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Well, I used to work for a company when I
were to San Francisco where we would like go out
the Jaegermeister, be with like the Yager mister. Yeah, you know,
go and hand out you know, like you know, I
guess that's along the same lines, right, but you get
out of the car and handle hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Yeah, I think so your basic a brand ambassador and you're.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
The greatest job of that was There's one guy that
used to walk around or whatever around and he was
from Guinness and he would go to bars and show
people how to pour a proper Guinness. And I was
friends with that guy and he could always give you
free Guinnesses that he bar could show up at.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I mean that's the thing that nobody does.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
The biggest group on pouring again, it's when you pour
it out of the tap that people do is they
don't do the push back on the topper. They know
to fill it up three quarters and then let it
sit and settle, but then they pull it forward again
the tap and those taps you have to push those
back because it doesn't really as much nitrogen when you
do that, and then it doesn't like over foam and
(10:43):
you get the proper poor That's the big mistake people make.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
That's that's that's a great tip. Yeah. But that being said,
we went to the Guinness factory and I screwed up
my poor a little bit, but no you didn't. You
did a great job. Thank you appreciate. But we learned
a proper pore.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
But then Dubliners told us that they were doing it
wrong at the Guinness factory. They some Dubliners, they were like,
that's not where you get a proper Guinness.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Well, it wasn't so much the method. They just thought
the beer wasn't that good there. They're like, you know,
they're like all the Dubliners think that that's that's bleep,
you know, and we're like at the Guinness factory and
they're like, yeah, it's bleep, Like you have to get
it at this place in that place. And then the
one old guy said, like the way the bottle was
really the traditional way.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
I agreed with him because he let me try it,
and I thought you were getting roofed. I was like, iday,
do you not drink that guy's beer.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
I kind of took a look over and I'm like,
you guys are gonna catch me right, Okay, I'm gonna
take it.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
He liked the Guinness in a bottle that yeah, and
we well, we watched that movie about it in the
factory where like that was the original way was like
the coming out of the bottle. Before the drafts became popular.
The bottles were what took the island by storm. Jim
Jeffrey is one of the greatest comedians ever and a
good friend of mine, said one of the greatest inventions
(12:03):
of mankind was the Guinness Can.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I agree? I agree too. It's like that in TiVo. Yeah, wow,
picture and picture Oh my god. Yeah, well, I mean, hey,
we gotta go do this tv O the game. TV
is such an outdated term, like it basically like d
v R in it. You know what I mean. It's
just like you just recorded. I can't. Yeah you DV yes,
(12:30):
I can. I've been saying DV like it's my whole life.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
I've been saying TV like I've been saying Tvovo's like
Coca cola, you know what.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (12:39):
It really is. Yeah, but it does. It's saved more
marriages and the marriage counselors.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
TVO. What you mean, we gotta got your sister's house
TiVo the game? Okay, I guess we'll stay together one
more year. Oh that you know it's funny because it's true.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
All Right, Mariah Carey has recorded hundreds and hundreds of
songs across her career, but she could have basically retired
comfortably if she had only released one song.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And what do you think? Yeah, that it is you that.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
I know the guy that wrote that song? You do, Jesus, yes,
I do. He's a he's like, he's like my biggest fan.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Walter Walter Afana thief. Is that how you say his
last name? Afana thief?
Speaker 8 (13:29):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
I don't know. I just the Russian Brazilian music producer.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Yeah, he's a bald head and he's married to a
friend of mine who they own a comedy club in
Hollywood now, but he used to always come to the
laugh Factory and hang out. When then he married my
friend and uh yeah, Walter, he's the best to pick up.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
He must well, he must be worth many millions.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
Yes, yeah, he's got a net worth is over one
hundred million.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
You're friends with that guy? That guy, jeez, that's pretty honest.
Know his last name was Walter bald dude, super cool, Walt.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
That's what he's in his phone is Walter bald dude,
super cool.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
I hope he's paying for dinner.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
It is, of course ironic that you know the song
is about, you know, not enjoying the materialistic things about
Christmas and just being with people that you love, because
it does Rake in more than two point five million
dollars in royalties for her every single year.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
But deep pretty goody.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
Good uh and Walter of course makes a ton of
movie or money on it as well. But it seems
like it's also becoming more popular every single year. It
hit number one on the Billboard Hot one hundred for
the first time.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
In twenty nineteen.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
Wow, but it's returned to number one every single year
since then.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Well, you know, Gene and Whrewoff does a banging version
of All they Want for Christmas, and they're going to
be part of our Feed the Burg celebration, the event
to help raise money for the Rainbow Kitchen. That's next
Friday the nineteenth at Mister Small's Theater. Jean the Warrewolf
will be there with Jokerschecky Abbey's band, Tiny Wars, Clinton Klay,
The common Heart, Kelsey Friday from Brownie, Mary Sun King Warriors,
(15:12):
Jim Donovan and the Crew, Liz Berlin and Rusted Liz
Berlin and Jen Wurtz along with Jim Donovan. You got
a lot of rusted route there, Andre Costello, Chet Vincent,
Attie Twigg and so many more.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Come join us for that one. Here's Gene and the
crew with their version.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
This Christmas party starts in two hours, but it starts now.
But they pregamed for the morning shows and they brought
in all this stuff. So we're all pigging out and
half drunk from Rick cebacks. This isn't unexpected Thursday. I'm
down with it.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Just Thursday for me, man.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
I know, I got to interview Sean Lennon in about
a half an hour after the show, I got.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
To interview Arthur Smith. You want to trade get to.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Well, why don't you, asked Sean Arthur Smith. The questions
I have for Sean Lennon, and I'll ask Sean Lennon
about the offense gets better answers.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
You might that you might rhy it. Arthur just great
talking about history. Okay.
Speaker 9 (16:07):
He's very conscious that he doesn't want to reveal anything
in his weekly chats with us. Right as if McDaniel
and the Dolphins are going to tune in TV tomorrow
and think I wonder what Arthur had to say about
whether are they going to throw the ball down the field?
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Well, that I was just going to say, is not
like he's revealing anything that everybody doesn't already know.
Speaker 9 (16:27):
Yeah, a lot of these guys are paranoid, Randle, I'm aware.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
I am aware.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
You know, just because your parent me, just because your
parandoid doesn't mean they are not to get you.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
That's very true. I live my life by that ad.
Speaker 9 (16:42):
Edge Sports that's not brought to you by Bridgeville Appliance.
Speaking of paranoid just feels like a big game for
the Penguins tonight against the Canadians, mostly because they lost
what should have been a win against Anaheim with zero
point one seconds remaining in the third period, then lost
it in a shootout. Joe, the last time I had
this feeling, I knew I had it before and it
(17:03):
came to me was back in early November. November the
third they were up three to nothing on Toronto going
into the third period, lost the game in regulation.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yeah, they and.
Speaker 9 (17:14):
Then they had the Caps the next game, and I
think you were in here and we were talking about
how that Caps game felt like it was a big deal.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
It did feel like a huge deal.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
And then we almost blew that one too, but then
we didn't. I think Rusty came up with a big
goal that that game. Yeah, that was a Yeah, it
has the same feeling. It doesn't have the same juice
as a Capital's game, But you know, I think I
like the way we've been playing, and you gotta beat
the teams that are behind you, and that you should
(17:43):
beat that that's so disconcerting. Was like, we played so
good against Dallas only get the loser point.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Were really good against Anaheim too.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Yeah, a top team in the West only get the
loser point, So you gotta start getting two.
Speaker 9 (17:56):
Funny part about that Caps game, and you know that's
how you avoid streaks, just bounce back and get it
done the next time. The funny part about that Caps
game is they went one, two and three in their
next six games after seemingly stopping the bleeding. But you know,
one two and three, you still got five points in
six games. You didn't lose four in a row in regulation.
(18:18):
The East is so tight. I think you just have
to keep getting points when you can at a pretty
regular clip. Don't don't go oh for four to oh
for five. Oh for six, because now all of a sudden,
you're in chase mode and there's nineteen teams in front
of you and everybody's getting.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Their loser points.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
Yes, and we are home for a five strands, So
this is the second one, so you got to make
hey the.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
Other interesting thing. First of three against the Canadians. They'll
play tonight in Pittsburgh and then December the twentieth and twenty.
First they played back to back at Montreal and then
back here I know, and the Canadians are behind the Penguins,
but not very far behind the Penguins.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Now everyone's in the East, everyone's within like six points.
It's amazing.
Speaker 9 (18:58):
They also have a back to back coming up in
January against Detroit and in April against Florida and Washington.
You know, same team in consecutive games, right, which is
kind of a collegiate sort of twist to the schedule.
They did that against Nashville earlier this year, but that
was in Sweden. Of course they were gonna play twice.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
I hope we get Boco for Christmas because the back
to back with the two Wi Fi brothers, I think
we're gonna need a little Abama coming down the Chimney.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
Penns currently the first wild card in the East with
thirty five points. The Canadians are the third team on
the outside looking in with thirty three. Florida's starting to
shake a leg a little bit and climb up from
the bottom. I would think the Panthers are going to
be a playoff team before by the time this is
all said and done.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
You would think. But you know, they missed Barkoff. It's
hard to miss one of the top four centers in
the league. And who knows when Kachuck's coming back and
the guy gets burned his arm off in a barbecue
against some freak injuries.
Speaker 9 (19:57):
And I'm not sure about Toronto stink or are they
just off to a slow start.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
They figured out they're not replacing Marner and now they're
finally playing beruby hockey, whereas there's three fourth three fourth.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Lines and they're actually playing defense. That's to kill me.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
The most about that Toronto game, Mike, was that second
period was the it looked like Yager, Stevens, Lebux and
Francis were out there and we gave it away.
Speaker 9 (20:23):
Yeah, gave away last two games, gave away a point
in each one, but still got a point in each one.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
So it could be worse. It could be worse.
Speaker 9 (20:30):
It could, I mean, but it'll get worse if they
don't tighten up.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
I'm thrilled with how we're playing because I was not
in the Oh we should take and go. No, I
like winning. I don't like going to a game in losing.
Winning breeds winning. Losing never breeds anything, but more you go,
look at look at Joe Burr. He's crying, what's to retire?
I bet if he was winning, he wouldn't be feeling
that way.
Speaker 9 (20:51):
It's fun when you win, Yeah, well said, you know,
unless that that one instance when there was no lottery
and Lemieux was up for grabs. And then yeah, then Tank,
you call some goalie out of the miners who has
no business playing in the National Hockey League and let
them get lit up like a Christmas tree down the stretch.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah, but Mary is not walking through that draft board.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
No, he is not.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
Falcons and Buccaneers tonight in Tampa. That's the Thursday night game,
and there are clinch scenarios available this weekend for the Patriots, Broncos,
and Rams. Also some elimination scenarios Tennessee Vegas, Jets, and
Cleveland have already been eliminated from the postseason. It could
(21:33):
happen to Cincinnati if the Bengals lose to Baltimore, and
it could happen to the Dolphins, Chiefs, and Vikings based
on a variety of potential occurrences. Dolphins will be playing
for their playoff lives. Actually, I don't think they're playing
for that. I think they're just I think they've they've
stumbled into something that works and it's been working and
(21:54):
they're gonna keep doing it as long as it works
and they like it that it works and they're having fun.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Yeah, let's make it the first time it doesn't work
in recent history here Monday Night.
Speaker 9 (22:04):
Well, if Derek Harmon comes back, if he comes back
and they stuff the run, I'd settle for Mark Harmon
compared to I mean, it's like almost one hundred yard difference.
I think he's good, and I know he's the first round.
I don't think he's Joe Green, No, but they're competent.
I mean keeping teams to under one hundred when he
(22:25):
plays versus.
Speaker 8 (22:26):
The almost two.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Yeah, it was one nine to ninety six, yeah, one
and changed that that that's a split that I cannot.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Explain, nor can I. Maybe Guy Junker can.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
He's going to join us after the commercial break right
here on the DV morning show.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Buckle Up, DVAS, Chad Tyson has your soundtrack for the road.
He's got a reloaded cut from the DVE morning show
Sports and a Workforce commercial Free hour at three. After
an interlands with Chad Tyson on DV.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
What Tissed You Buy?
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Edgard Snyder and Associates personal injury law firm where they
always say there's never a fee unless we get money
for you. It's Guy Junker, everybody, Good morning, everybody?
Speaker 8 (23:09):
All right?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
So we have not really talked a lot this morning
about the situation in Michigan, and I don't know what
there is to opine on other than this is truly
one of the craziest stories. It's tragic on many levels,
and to have a major college football program wrapped up
in it. You would think in this day and age
(23:32):
that a program that big would be doing due diligence
non stop to make sure they don't put.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Themselves in a vulnerable position.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
So I'm surprised anytime something of this magnitude happens on
any level.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
In collegiate sports.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
But when it's like Michigan, you know, the Penn States
of the world, like this is one of those things.
I don't think you just bounce back from it. PURSUITA
he had to bounce. PURSUITA is like, Nope, they'll sweetness
under the rug and you won't even meet. Nobody will
be thinking of this in a year or so if
de Bower comes and takes the job.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Do you think it's something like that?
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Is this something that's there's gonna be a long time
before this one's out of anybody's recent memory.
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Well, look, just a couple of years ago, they were
stealing signs in Harbaugh, you know Harbaugh high Tail that
did the NFL to get out from under the problems
that they had, and then this guy takes over. I
would love and the police are being very mum. It's
interesting enough to me that he got cut having an
inappropriate relationship with his staffer. I want to know what
(24:30):
happened yesterday they got him arrested. I mean, you know,
they send police to her house, they sent police to
his house.
Speaker 8 (24:36):
What was going on?
Speaker 6 (24:37):
Was you know, was he threaten threatening her? Did she
spill the beans to get there's not enough information out
of there, but it doesn't surprise me when it's the
big institution anymore than a small I mean people do.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
Goofy things everywhere.
Speaker 6 (24:50):
Yeah, I think the bigger places have a better chance
to sweeping it under the rug.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
This didn't give them any football advantage.
Speaker 6 (24:57):
I mean, the signs stealing thing was one thing you know,
back with as terrible as the Jerry Sandusky thing, was
that that was nothing, had nothing to do with the football.
When they took the wins away from them, they didn't
gain any.
Speaker 8 (25:08):
Advantage on the football field because they had a creep
as a defensive coordinator.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
So yeah, it's it's very interesting if they're all the
coaching carousel that zipped around.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
He thought it was over and now they're looking for somebody.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Well that's what I was wondering too, is like what
would have happened had this broke three weeks ago? What
would that have done to the coaching search that was
out there? And where might people have landed differently?
Speaker 6 (25:31):
Yeah, I was thinking, you know, would James Franklin take
the Michigan Yeah, we were still floating around exactly exactly.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
Yeah, guy, we were talking a little bit about the Penguins,
and while you know, our buddy Joe Bartnick is here
and he's quite the puckhead host of the PuckOff podcast.
And two for talking with Josh, Joey and Joe. I
know you're bummed out about the way things ended against
the Ducks the other night, but by and large, I
keep saying I'm pretty happy with what the Penguins are
doing right now. You and pursuit of Joe have seen
(26:00):
a little more angsy over that loss than I am,
because I'm like, well, you know, there's a lot of
a lot of timeline, a lot of hockey left here.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
I just see it as a learning moment.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Guy, Do you think that it had more of an
impact than that, that this denotes something else or do
you think it was just another kind of like I
learned from that and don't do it again.
Speaker 6 (26:20):
Well that that you know, fluky own goal put in
by your own hand, you know, with zero point one
seconds left. I think it's easier to wash off something
like that, Joe. I don't know if Joe agrees, but
to me, the worst loss of the year is blowing
a three to nothing lead in Toronto in the third
period and not even getting a point out of it,
and they rebounded from that. So I think as long
(26:42):
as you got Sydney crust and I agree with what
what Mike said on his last Sports Cats. I think
the night is a very important game. So they because
it's not just one game now it's two. You know,
they blew the Dallas game with less than two minutes
to go and lost them the shootout. Haven't wont to
shootout this year, and in fact, you know, I think
they're one in six, one and seven in overtime and
shootout games this year. The killer is the first three
(27:04):
at the beginning of the year, they scored the time
goal and then you lose them a shoot on and
you're like, well, at least.
Speaker 8 (27:09):
We salvage a point.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
Now they're giving up the time goal, and they're not
only just giving it up, they're giving it up late.
Nashville beat him in overtime, scored with less than two
minutes to go. Dallas scored with less than two minutes
to go, beat him in a shootout. The Anaheid game,
a point one second left in your own defenseman puts
it past. I think those are more crushing because you
blew the two points rather than salvage the one.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
Oh guy, me and Mike We're talking. It was on
air to Today about how I thought the Toronto.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Loss was my toughest loss of the season.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
But what makes me upset about Monday night was the
almost exact same snare happened at the home opener.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Same thing.
Speaker 4 (27:48):
We to power play down the end of the ice,
like thirty to twenty seconds left, and boom, they come
all the way back down the ice short handed and
Jerry had to make a miraculous save with U Maulkin
and Carlson just st there looking at him like all
you had to do was kill seventeen seconds. It almost
(28:08):
happened again. That's what made me sick.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
Well, like Borky said, just tackle the guy. I mean,
when they call penalty that plays over and you know
what kills me. Joe is and I think News has
done a terrific job. Why are La Tang and Carlson
on the ice in that situation? You know, Watherspoon's been
so good defensively, I mean, I I just I don't know,
maybe he played the ship before, but I don't have
(28:30):
two offensive defensemen out there, and they had a couple
of opportunities with puck possession in the offensive zone with
the net empty, and couldn't quite you know, get a
good shot on goal because they gathered at late and had.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
To go around to back, try to wrap around to whatever, but.
Speaker 6 (28:44):
From top to bottom and then you know, you know,
you have that wide open net. In overtime on the
power play, hit the post off, the blade of the
stick settles in the crease, Crossby gets three pokes at it,
it doesn't go in.
Speaker 8 (28:56):
I couldn't go to sleep after that game was over.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Guy, did you get a chance to see the Joe
Burrow interview yesterday his media availability?
Speaker 6 (29:07):
No?
Speaker 8 (29:07):
I did not.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Boy, it looks bad in Cincinnati. I mean, he is
given some Andrew Luck kind of vibes like he might
be walking away from the game.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
He basically said, you know, it's got to be.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Fun if I'm going to keep doing this, and it's
not fun, and he hasn't been having fun for a
long time, and he's going through personal and professional issues.
He said all of the above, and it was the
most maudlin, you know, press availability I've seen an NFL
player conduct in quite some time. If you're a Bengals fan,
(29:42):
how do you sit there and hear that and think like, yeah,
we're moving.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
In the right direction.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Our franchise quarterback is thinking about giving up the sport.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
Well, when you think about I mean, the Steelers are
a much better situation than they are obviously, but they're
sort of the opposite. You know, They've they've got received,
they've got a franchise quarterback. Their defense has been so terrible.
I'm sure their fans are like and the Steelers strolled
this money at their defense and offensively, they've really struggled
since Ben Roethlisberger retired. But you if one, you're getting
(30:14):
the crap beat out of you and you're injured almost
every year, and two you see no light at the
end of the Maybe he's trying to set himself up
to be traded or whatever.
Speaker 8 (30:22):
You know, I did not. I don't have to listen
to it to try to get to get the vibe.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
But can you blame him, I mean, he get beat
up time after time, and look, and you know they've
bungled their situation management wise for years. They're not a
well run organization. So he might be just getting fed
up and trying to set himself up to get traded.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
It seems like he's just been getting beat up so
much there and he's been sacked more than Andrew Luck.
And he's the same age as Andrew Luck. When Andrew
Luck walked away from the game, that would be a
shocking development.
Speaker 8 (30:55):
Yeah, it would be.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
And you know, you look, even I thought Lamar Jackson,
even though they were talking about you know, he was
much more mobile than he has when he's had what
he's had a knees, had an ankle, he's.
Speaker 8 (31:06):
Had a hamstring this year. Even though he was a
lot more mobile.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
I still, you know, the Steelers for the most part
just or his kryptonite or whatever, I'm not impressed with.
Speaker 8 (31:16):
If they get behind and can't run the ball. I
just I don't believe in him either.
Speaker 6 (31:21):
I can't believe how this whole division is so different
than we thought it was going to be in August.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
Yeah, two five sub five hundred teams today or this
weekend playing with playoff implications in the Ravens and the Bengals.
Speaker 8 (31:35):
Yeah, boy, well what a good week weekend of games
on me?
Speaker 6 (31:38):
So often now, when you got Thursday night football, you
got Sunday morning football in Europe, you got Sunday.
Speaker 8 (31:43):
Night, Monday night, and you look at that schedule.
Speaker 6 (31:44):
I sit down at one o'clock, I'm like, I'm gonna
go put Ice Meld on the sidewalk.
Speaker 8 (31:50):
I don't want to watch this crap.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
You got Buffalo, New England, the Chargers in Kansas City, Indy, Seattle,
Green Bay, Denver, Lions, and Rams.
Speaker 8 (31:58):
I mean, this is a week to have the package
and be able to flip.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Around Packers Broncos.
Speaker 9 (32:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
Also another good game Vikings Cowboys, and of course Monday
Night Dolphins and Steelers. And Mike Tomlin's pretty good on
Monday Night. I don't know that you're gonna hear any
chance to get him fired on Monday Night football, at
least I hope not. They seemed to have reacted to
the outrage in Steeler Nation appropriately knocking down Baltimore with
(32:28):
basically the postseason on the line retain first place in
the AFC North with that win. What looked different and
what encourages you about that Steelers win?
Speaker 6 (32:39):
Well, you know, first of all, when you add some
size at the receiver position, you know, I mean Metcalf's
already six to two, and then you put Velvet scantling
in there at six four and Adam Deeelin six four.
Speaker 8 (32:54):
Whatever.
Speaker 6 (32:55):
Look, you know, I love Calvin Austin and Roman Wilson,
but they're both five nine. Scotty Miller's five nine. I
just think that opened things up so much more for Metcalf.
But that aside, it was the willingness to throw at first,
play the game. You throw the ball forty four yards
in the year, get a fifty two yard game on
it right off the bat. Now that you gotta worry
(33:15):
more and opens up play action pass and you know,
the run game everything. They had three passes of over
twenty yards in that game.
Speaker 8 (33:24):
He was three for three.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
They weren't even thrown downsiealed at all in some of
the games this year, So that that's encouraging to me.
Even if these two guys aren't aren't, you know, great receivers.
They've added some size and it just looked like in
that game that Metcalf was obviously way more open than
he has been. Tony Romo in the Buffalo game kept
saying he doesn't have any weapons, he doesn't have any
nobody's open. When it was a dismal performance by him,
(33:47):
even when he got guys, but immediately the next week,
they had a totally different look at wide receiver and
it gives me some And the other thing is we
talked about this before the Bears game, and the Bears
I said they might be good, but they haven't beaten anybody.
Speaker 8 (34:00):
Miami schedule's been a piece of cake. I mean they haven't.
Speaker 6 (34:05):
They had won four in a row, but the last
three were against Washington, New Orleans and the Jets.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
All three of them are three and ten, so they
got to prove something.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
They also, teams hate to get on there and play
in Miami in September when it's ninety degrees and hmid. Well,
the Dolphins don't fare very well in cold weather, and
it looks like it's going to be pretty bad.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
Monday Night, Guy Jocker brought to you by edgres Snyder
and Associates this morning on DV.
Speaker 1 (34:25):

Speaker 4 (35:01):
From the from six am till now, the studio looks
completely different.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
We are blessed and there's a lot of booze here.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
We're gonna have to figure out how to dissemble it all.

Speaker 6 (35:22):
Baby.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Now you got to call me Ronald? Would you not
eat my pants? Coronald?
Speaker 3 (35:28):
Whoa whay google it.
Speaker 10 (35:35):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by iron Workers Local Union number three. They
don't go to the office, They build it and Steelers
Pro Shop get it direct from the team at shop
dot Steelers dot com.
Speaker 8 (35:48):
Here's Tom Opperman.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
With steeersman on Sunday in Baltimore. They took control of
the Anty North Division. Now the first steve and keeping
it in their control and ultimately winning it is beating
the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football. If Mike Tomas
tracked on Monday Night, as any indication, that shouldn't be
a problem for the Steelers. Coach Mike Tomlin has a
twenty one and three record on Monday Night Football, and
the Steelers in general have won twenty two straight home
games on Monday Night. That being said, making it twenty
(36:12):
three straight won't be as easy as it may have
seemed a couple of months ago when Miami was one
and six, but they've gone five to one.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Since then, including winning four straight games.
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Over that four game streak, the Dolphins defense has given
up just thirteen point three points per game, the best
in the league during that stretch. Also contributing to Miami's
late season surge is a powerful running attack on offense
led by Starbuck Devin ah chan A. Chane is the
NFL's third leading rusher with one and twenty six yards,
and he's extremely explosive as he leads all backs in
(36:41):
yards per carry, averaging five point eight yards per touch.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
During their four game winning.
Speaker 7 (36:45):
Streak, the Dolphins have rushed for an average of one
hundred and ninety two point twenty five yards and are
coming off a two hundred and thirty nine yard rushing
performance against the Jets in their win on Sunday. I'm
Tom Opraman with the Steelers Report.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
You see the skyline rive over the bridges. We built
that Ironworkers Local Union number three. This isn't just a job,
it's a legacy and you can start
W DD.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's for an I Heeart radio station, guaranteed human.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Because we have such a high per capita percentage of churches, yes,
and chocolate chops. Church in a bar that's kind of
like all of Western Pa, right, church in a bar
on every corner. And the chocolate shop apparently the chocolate chop. Yeah,
sou and that's what's got it started. And truly the
first I mean I think the first day I'm thinking
about it.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
There's Dennis as an engineer.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
At QUED and he always stops and talks to me
in the edit room.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
He goes, what are you doing? And I said, I
think I'm going to do a show on chocolate shops.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
He goes, well, then you're going to go to the
Pink House in Finleyville.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
And I said, I don't know the pink House in Finleyville.
He said, yeah, well you got to have it on
the list. And I said, okay. And then my see,
if Rick.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Tells me let's go to the pink House in Finleyville,
I assume we're getting chocolate.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
If Bartnick tells me that, I tell him I don't
want to go there. I don't want to go. Don't
tell your girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Yeah, Brandy Bellman and the DV morning show.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
I'd stay in the car. You go into the Packhouse show,
I'll stay out here. That won't that excuse won't work. Yeah,
I didn't. I stayed in the car. I didn't inhale.
Yeah right, Yeah, you're still complicit and I get it. Tonight,
Rick Seback's special on It's episode four, If is Lucky
to Live in Pittsburgh series on WQED at eight o'clock,
all about the local chocolate shops and you know the
(01:27):
ones that are spotted around western Pennsylvania, specifically.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Here in Pittsburgh, and they're all neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
I didn't realize we had so many that were like
the part of the neighborhood. I thought there was like
four or five big ones. I didn't realize there was
like dozens of them.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
That's pretty sweet. They're hiding in plain sight. They kind
of are. I never knew their around.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
And like I said to him, and I wasn't just
blowing smoke. I mean, I really do appreciate about those
shows that he has. I don't really have to care
about the product so much as I just like hearing
from the people.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
Everybody in Pittsburgh. Who has a job like that. It's
the most important thing that they do. Yeah, I know
every single thing about it, but the proud of it,
and they're so proud of it, and that's what makes
all of his shows incredibly special.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Speaking of proud, the two ladies that made that eggnog,
I am not an eggnog person. That one might have
been one of the most delicious things I've ever had
in my life. Kathy Nerdenberger, Dude, this is what made
me laugh so hard. Abby's like, what is the name
of the woman who made this so that we can
give her proper credit? And the name that comes flying
out of Rick mathis Kathy Nerderberger. And I'm like, of
course that's your name.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Was Itnederberger? Ordergnederberger? Yeah, Needberg.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
I do, in fact, But it's just such a Rick
Seaback name, of course. You know, it's never just like
Lisa Smith, right, It's always something very very ethnic. The
last name is totally Pittsburgh too. The first name, the
first name of is Pittsburgh. Be like, deb, Yeah, Kathy's
right up there. Kathy's pretty high up there, but you know, sure. Yeah,
(03:00):
So thanks to Rick for getting us drunk and bringing
us chocolate. My god, there's so much booze in that egg.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Geas he always does that, he brings treats. And at
first I'm like, this is amazing, and then in fifteen minutes,
I'm like, oh my god, what have I done?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Dude? I mean I took like three SIPs of it.
It's so boozy. It was like two full.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Shots of booze. Now I know why Rick so happy
all the time? Abby, what's going on over there?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Is this hour brought to you by Better Call Sy.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Mostly cloudy, breezy, and colder today a couple of snow showers.
It's a high of thirty, and you can expect flurries
tonight as well. Jack Nicholson had an interesting way with stalkers,
at least one particular stalker, one female stalker, Ben dreyve
This is the son of Jaws star Richard Driv Richard
(03:48):
I was in John's and a woman named Jeremy Rain.
Jeremy dated Nicholson in the early eighties, and Ben told
a crazy story that happened when they were together.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
This is.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Richard Dreyfus's wife, but before they were married. Yes, and
Ben Dreyfus's mom was dating Jack Nicholson.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
I want to get it straight, Okay.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Jack started getting disturbing phone calls from a woman and
they weirded him out so much that he told everyone
in the house to ignore her. One day, Jeremy was
at Jack's house when the woman showed up and knocked
on his door. Jeremy and Jack were kind of freaked out,
but they ended up in the living room with the stalker.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Somehow.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Jack told Jeremy to call for help, so she left
the room to go call for help. When she came back,
the living room was empty, so she's freaked out by that,
of course, and so she's looking for them because this
is a stalker.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
This is a dangerous situation.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
When she found them, they were in the bedroom and
Jack was receiving an oral favor from the stalker.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Jeremy lost it, obviously and screamed, what the f is
wrong with you? And Jack's response was shit for me?
Oral sex? What was I supposed to do? Say?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
No?
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Yeah, I mean I think Hollywood in the seventies was
a really sort of sexual wild West. Yeah, and that
probably didn't seem that weird to Jack Nicholson even though
it was weird to everybody else in the world. Don't
forget Jack Nickolson also did I think a couple of
years where he just was naked in his house and
if you went to his house, you were you had
(05:34):
He just he wanted everyone to be naked, and so
Harry Dean Stanton would go over and hang out with
him and just get naked and just walk around the
house and drink beer, smoke cigarettes, and they would just
be naked because they were that weird.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
So sounds right again.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
I talked about the cognitive effect of celebrity and you know,
when you're a billionaire, I said, that person had such
a great tweet about it, like it must be like
the cognitive effect of getting hit in kicked in the
head every day by a mule. You know, eventually you're
like I could do anything, you know, Like I think
celebrity has that similar thing. Joe, You're around all these
crazy show biz people all the time.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I am.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
They're not naked, unfortunately, noney of them. Right, Yeah, I
don't know a bird doesn't get naked and walk around
his house. Take your clothes out. No, I don't want that,
Like I mean me and BERSI love each other. I
don't want to smoke cigars naked with them all day.
I wouldn't imagine you would. Yeah, I don't understand the
like the fun of that. I don't want someone naked
(06:33):
on my couch. Yeah, you're talking like reading happy to
relax in the movie theater. It's something spray ego on your
love seat. Yeah no, well just think about that next
time you jump on your hotel bed spread and lay there.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Oh I ripped that thing off immediately angry. Yeah. Yeah, no,
I don't touch that thing at all. Those aren't nasty.
Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Yeah, because you know, and the couch in a hotel room, anything,
any piece of furniture.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I just picture like Larry King naked on it, you
know what I mean, because when you're in a hotel room,
you treat it the same way. Well, or I do it.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Yeah. Well, if I'm gonna sit on it, it's gonna
be buck ass naked.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Yeah all right, different guy to Wiener.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Here.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Oscar Meyer is looking for the newest.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Hotnogger, the person who is lucky enough to climb behind
the wheel of the Wienermobile and drive around the country.
The company announced that applications are now open to try
to become one of the drivers of the Wienermobile in
twenty twenty six. That program started back in nineteen eighty
eight and it was designed to develop top talent to
inspire future leaders who embody innovation, creativity and community spirits.
(07:47):
They usually get about five thousand applications. They cut that
down to a dozen and technically you are the Oscar
Meyer Wienermobile spokesperson and you go through a two week
immersive onboarding process. So apparently it's very intense. You have
regular meetings with various teams and you need to be
a people person of course to do this. But you
(08:08):
have to have the ballad driver's license, good driving record,
ability to work long weekends. But they give you thirty
five thousand dollars, an additional weekly allowance of one hundred
and fifty dollars, and you get health benefits and hotel.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Costs are covered.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
It's a good gig, but I would never get it
the way I drive, I'd be putting that Wiener into everything.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Joey Bean, never change, dude, I knew the person. I
knew somebody who drove that who's when I was grown up.
We need two famous people.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
One was the he was the Notre Dame mascot for
a year, and the other was this girl and she
drove the wienermobile and they were like the most famous
people in our circles growing up.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Wow, Like, I.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Don't think it's as cool of a gig as it
sounds like, because after a while, the novelty of it
wears off. Sure, I gotta get up and drive that
Wiener around again today.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
To do it for the lulls kind of job.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
I think I had a friend that was working in
some capacity like spam had some kind of version of that,
and I don't know if there was like a spammobile basically.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
A spam mobile.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
When she was doing that, she was kind of a
hippie and was kind of like, yeah, I know, I
want to travel the world for spam, And I know
she had a lot of spam swag's cool and used
to give that away, like so I have some spam
magnets of her. She was just like, look at all
this fun free spam stuff I have.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
And I'm like, do you eat spam? And she's like,
oh god no.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Well, I used to work for a company when I
were to San Francisco where we would like go out
the Jaegermeister, be with like the Yager mister. Yeah, you know,
go and hand out you know, like you know, I
guess that's along the same lines, right, but you get
out of the car and handle hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Yeah, I think so your basic a brand ambassador and you're.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
The greatest job of that was There's one guy that
used to walk around or whatever around and he was
from Guinness and he would go to bars and show
people how to pour a proper Guinness. And I was
friends with that guy and he could always give you
free Guinnesses that he bar could show up at.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I mean that's the thing that nobody does.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
The biggest group on pouring again, it's when you pour
it out of the tap that people do is they
don't do the push back on the topper. They know
to fill it up three quarters and then let it
sit and settle, but then they pull it forward again
the tap and those taps you have to push those
back because it doesn't really as much nitrogen when you
do that, and then it doesn't like over foam and
(10:43):
you get the proper poor That's the big mistake people make.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
That's that's that's a great tip. Yeah. But that being said,
we went to the Guinness factory and I screwed up
my poor a little bit, but no you didn't. You
did a great job. Thank you appreciate. But we learned
a proper pore.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
But then Dubliners told us that they were doing it
wrong at the Guinness factory. They some Dubliners, they were like,
that's not where you get a proper Guinness.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Well, it wasn't so much the method. They just thought
the beer wasn't that good there. They're like, you know,
they're like all the Dubliners think that that's that's bleep,
you know, and we're like at the Guinness factory and
they're like, yeah, it's bleep, Like you have to get
it at this place in that place. And then the
one old guy said, like the way the bottle was
really the traditional way.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
I agreed with him because he let me try it,
and I thought you were getting roofed. I was like, iday,
do you not drink that guy's beer.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
I kind of took a look over and I'm like,
you guys are gonna catch me right, Okay, I'm gonna
take it.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
He liked the Guinness in a bottle that yeah, and
we well, we watched that movie about it in the
factory where like that was the original way was like
the coming out of the bottle. Before the drafts became popular.
The bottles were what took the island by storm. Jim
Jeffrey is one of the greatest comedians ever and a
good friend of mine, said one of the greatest inventions
(12:03):
of mankind was the Guinness Can.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I agree? I agree too. It's like that in TiVo. Yeah, wow,
picture and picture Oh my god. Yeah, well, I mean, hey,
we gotta go do this tv O the game. TV
is such an outdated term, like it basically like d
v R in it. You know what I mean. It's
just like you just recorded. I can't. Yeah you DV yes,
(12:30):
I can. I've been saying DV like it's my whole life.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
I've been saying TV like I've been saying Tvovo's like
Coca cola, you know what.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (12:39):
It really is. Yeah, but it does. It's saved more
marriages and the marriage counselors.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
TVO. What you mean, we gotta got your sister's house
TiVo the game? Okay, I guess we'll stay together one
more year. Oh that you know it's funny because it's true.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
All Right, Mariah Carey has recorded hundreds and hundreds of
songs across her career, but she could have basically retired
comfortably if she had only released one song.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And what do you think? Yeah, that it is you that.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
I know the guy that wrote that song? You do, Jesus, yes,
I do. He's a he's like, he's like my biggest fan.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Walter Walter Afana thief. Is that how you say his
last name? Afana thief?
Speaker 8 (13:29):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
I don't know. I just the Russian Brazilian music producer.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Yeah, he's a bald head and he's married to a
friend of mine who they own a comedy club in
Hollywood now, but he used to always come to the
laugh Factory and hang out. When then he married my
friend and uh yeah, Walter, he's the best to pick up.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
He must well, he must be worth many millions.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
Yes, yeah, he's got a net worth is over one
hundred million.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
You're friends with that guy? That guy, jeez, that's pretty honest.
Know his last name was Walter bald dude, super cool, Walt.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
That's what he's in his phone is Walter bald dude,
super cool.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
I hope he's paying for dinner.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
It is, of course ironic that you know the song
is about, you know, not enjoying the materialistic things about
Christmas and just being with people that you love, because
it does Rake in more than two point five million
dollars in royalties for her every single year.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
But deep pretty goody.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
Good uh and Walter of course makes a ton of
movie or money on it as well. But it seems
like it's also becoming more popular every single year. It
hit number one on the Billboard Hot one hundred for
the first time.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
In twenty nineteen.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
Wow, but it's returned to number one every single year
since then.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Well, you know, Gene and Whrewoff does a banging version
of All they Want for Christmas, and they're going to
be part of our Feed the Burg celebration, the event
to help raise money for the Rainbow Kitchen. That's next
Friday the nineteenth at Mister Small's Theater. Jean the Warrewolf
will be there with Jokerschecky Abbey's band, Tiny Wars, Clinton Klay,
The common Heart, Kelsey Friday from Brownie, Mary Sun King Warriors,
(15:12):
Jim Donovan and the Crew, Liz Berlin and Rusted Liz
Berlin and Jen Wurtz along with Jim Donovan. You got
a lot of rusted route there, Andre Costello, Chet Vincent,
Attie Twigg and so many more.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Come join us for that one. Here's Gene and the
crew with their version.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
This Christmas party starts in two hours, but it starts now.
But they pregamed for the morning shows and they brought
in all this stuff. So we're all pigging out and
half drunk from Rick cebacks. This isn't unexpected Thursday. I'm
down with it.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Just Thursday for me, man.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
I know, I got to interview Sean Lennon in about
a half an hour after the show, I got.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
To interview Arthur Smith. You want to trade get to.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Well, why don't you, asked Sean Arthur Smith. The questions
I have for Sean Lennon, and I'll ask Sean Lennon
about the offense gets better answers.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
You might that you might rhy it. Arthur just great
talking about history. Okay.
Speaker 9 (16:07):
He's very conscious that he doesn't want to reveal anything
in his weekly chats with us. Right as if McDaniel
and the Dolphins are going to tune in TV tomorrow
and think I wonder what Arthur had to say about
whether are they going to throw the ball down the field?
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Well, that I was just going to say, is not
like he's revealing anything that everybody doesn't already know.
Speaker 9 (16:27):
Yeah, a lot of these guys are paranoid, Randle, I'm aware.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
I am aware.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
You know, just because your parent me, just because your
parandoid doesn't mean they are not to get you.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
That's very true. I live my life by that ad.
Speaker 9 (16:42):
Edge Sports that's not brought to you by Bridgeville Appliance.
Speaking of paranoid just feels like a big game for
the Penguins tonight against the Canadians, mostly because they lost
what should have been a win against Anaheim with zero
point one seconds remaining in the third period, then lost
it in a shootout. Joe, the last time I had
this feeling, I knew I had it before and it
(17:03):
came to me was back in early November. November the
third they were up three to nothing on Toronto going
into the third period, lost the game in regulation.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yeah, they and.
Speaker 9 (17:14):
Then they had the Caps the next game, and I
think you were in here and we were talking about
how that Caps game felt like it was a big deal.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
It did feel like a huge deal.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
And then we almost blew that one too, but then
we didn't. I think Rusty came up with a big
goal that that game. Yeah, that was a Yeah, it
has the same feeling. It doesn't have the same juice
as a Capital's game, But you know, I think I
like the way we've been playing, and you gotta beat
the teams that are behind you, and that you should
(17:43):
beat that that's so disconcerting. Was like, we played so
good against Dallas only get the loser point.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Were really good against Anaheim too.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Yeah, a top team in the West only get the
loser point, So you gotta start getting two.
Speaker 9 (17:56):
Funny part about that Caps game, and you know that's
how you avoid streaks, just bounce back and get it
done the next time. The funny part about that Caps
game is they went one, two and three in their
next six games after seemingly stopping the bleeding. But you know,
one two and three, you still got five points in
six games. You didn't lose four in a row in regulation.
(18:18):
The East is so tight. I think you just have
to keep getting points when you can at a pretty
regular clip. Don't don't go oh for four to oh
for five. Oh for six, because now all of a sudden,
you're in chase mode and there's nineteen teams in front
of you and everybody's getting.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Their loser points.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
Yes, and we are home for a five strands, So
this is the second one, so you got to make
hey the.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
Other interesting thing. First of three against the Canadians. They'll
play tonight in Pittsburgh and then December the twentieth and twenty.
First they played back to back at Montreal and then
back here I know, and the Canadians are behind the Penguins,
but not very far behind the Penguins.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Now everyone's in the East, everyone's within like six points.
It's amazing.
Speaker 9 (18:58):
They also have a back to back coming up in
January against Detroit and in April against Florida and Washington.
You know, same team in consecutive games, right, which is
kind of a collegiate sort of twist to the schedule.
They did that against Nashville earlier this year, but that
was in Sweden. Of course they were gonna play twice.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
I hope we get Boco for Christmas because the back
to back with the two Wi Fi brothers, I think
we're gonna need a little Abama coming down the Chimney.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
Penns currently the first wild card in the East with
thirty five points. The Canadians are the third team on
the outside looking in with thirty three. Florida's starting to
shake a leg a little bit and climb up from
the bottom. I would think the Panthers are going to
be a playoff team before by the time this is
all said and done.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
You would think. But you know, they missed Barkoff. It's
hard to miss one of the top four centers in
the league. And who knows when Kachuck's coming back and
the guy gets burned his arm off in a barbecue
against some freak injuries.
Speaker 9 (19:57):
And I'm not sure about Toronto stink or are they
just off to a slow start.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
They figured out they're not replacing Marner and now they're
finally playing beruby hockey, whereas there's three fourth three fourth.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Lines and they're actually playing defense. That's to kill me.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
The most about that Toronto game, Mike, was that second
period was the it looked like Yager, Stevens, Lebux and
Francis were out there and we gave it away.
Speaker 9 (20:23):
Yeah, gave away last two games, gave away a point
in each one, but still got a point in each one.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
So it could be worse. It could be worse.
Speaker 9 (20:30):
It could, I mean, but it'll get worse if they
don't tighten up.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
I'm thrilled with how we're playing because I was not
in the Oh we should take and go. No, I
like winning. I don't like going to a game in losing.
Winning breeds winning. Losing never breeds anything, but more you go,
look at look at Joe Burr. He's crying, what's to retire?
I bet if he was winning, he wouldn't be feeling
that way.
Speaker 9 (20:51):
It's fun when you win, Yeah, well said, you know,
unless that that one instance when there was no lottery
and Lemieux was up for grabs. And then yeah, then Tank,
you call some goalie out of the miners who has
no business playing in the National Hockey League and let
them get lit up like a Christmas tree down the stretch.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah, but Mary is not walking through that draft board.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
No, he is not.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
Falcons and Buccaneers tonight in Tampa. That's the Thursday night game,
and there are clinch scenarios available this weekend for the Patriots, Broncos,
and Rams. Also some elimination scenarios Tennessee Vegas, Jets, and
Cleveland have already been eliminated from the postseason. It could
(21:33):
happen to Cincinnati if the Bengals lose to Baltimore, and
it could happen to the Dolphins, Chiefs, and Vikings based
on a variety of potential occurrences. Dolphins will be playing
for their playoff lives. Actually, I don't think they're playing
for that. I think they're just I think they've they've
stumbled into something that works and it's been working and
(21:54):
they're gonna keep doing it as long as it works
and they like it that it works and they're having fun.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Yeah, let's make it the first time it doesn't work
in recent history here Monday Night.
Speaker 9 (22:04):
Well, if Derek Harmon comes back, if he comes back
and they stuff the run, I'd settle for Mark Harmon
compared to I mean, it's like almost one hundred yard difference.
I think he's good, and I know he's the first round.
I don't think he's Joe Green, No, but they're competent.
I mean keeping teams to under one hundred when he
(22:25):
plays versus.
Speaker 8 (22:26):
The almost two.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Yeah, it was one nine to ninety six, yeah, one
and changed that that that's a split that I cannot.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Explain, nor can I. Maybe Guy Junker can.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
He's going to join us after the commercial break right
here on the DV morning show.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Buckle Up, DVAS, Chad Tyson has your soundtrack for the road.
He's got a reloaded cut from the DVE morning show
Sports and a Workforce commercial Free hour at three. After
an interlands with Chad Tyson on DV.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
What Tissed You Buy?
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Edgard Snyder and Associates personal injury law firm where they
always say there's never a fee unless we get money
for you. It's Guy Junker, everybody, Good morning, everybody?
Speaker 8 (23:09):
All right?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
So we have not really talked a lot this morning
about the situation in Michigan, and I don't know what
there is to opine on other than this is truly
one of the craziest stories. It's tragic on many levels,
and to have a major college football program wrapped up
in it. You would think in this day and age
(23:32):
that a program that big would be doing due diligence
non stop to make sure they don't put.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Themselves in a vulnerable position.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
So I'm surprised anytime something of this magnitude happens on
any level.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
In collegiate sports.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
But when it's like Michigan, you know, the Penn States
of the world, like this is one of those things.
I don't think you just bounce back from it. PURSUITA
he had to bounce. PURSUITA is like, Nope, they'll sweetness
under the rug and you won't even meet. Nobody will
be thinking of this in a year or so if
de Bower comes and takes the job.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Do you think it's something like that?
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Is this something that's there's gonna be a long time
before this one's out of anybody's recent memory.
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Well, look, just a couple of years ago, they were
stealing signs in Harbaugh, you know Harbaugh high Tail that
did the NFL to get out from under the problems
that they had, and then this guy takes over. I
would love and the police are being very mum. It's
interesting enough to me that he got cut having an
inappropriate relationship with his staffer. I want to know what
(24:30):
happened yesterday they got him arrested. I mean, you know,
they send police to her house, they sent police to
his house.
Speaker 8 (24:36):
What was going on?
Speaker 6 (24:37):
Was you know, was he threaten threatening her? Did she
spill the beans to get there's not enough information out
of there, but it doesn't surprise me when it's the
big institution anymore than a small I mean people do.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
Goofy things everywhere.
Speaker 6 (24:50):
Yeah, I think the bigger places have a better chance
to sweeping it under the rug.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
This didn't give them any football advantage.
Speaker 6 (24:57):
I mean, the signs stealing thing was one thing you know,
back with as terrible as the Jerry Sandusky thing, was
that that was nothing, had nothing to do with the football.
When they took the wins away from them, they didn't
gain any.
Speaker 8 (25:08):
Advantage on the football field because they had a creep
as a defensive coordinator.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
So yeah, it's it's very interesting if they're all the
coaching carousel that zipped around.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
He thought it was over and now they're looking for somebody.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Well that's what I was wondering too, is like what
would have happened had this broke three weeks ago? What
would that have done to the coaching search that was
out there? And where might people have landed differently?
Speaker 6 (25:31):
Yeah, I was thinking, you know, would James Franklin take
the Michigan Yeah, we were still floating around exactly exactly.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
Yeah, guy, we were talking a little bit about the Penguins,
and while you know, our buddy Joe Bartnick is here
and he's quite the puckhead host of the PuckOff podcast.
And two for talking with Josh, Joey and Joe. I
know you're bummed out about the way things ended against
the Ducks the other night, but by and large, I
keep saying I'm pretty happy with what the Penguins are
doing right now. You and pursuit of Joe have seen
(26:00):
a little more angsy over that loss than I am,
because I'm like, well, you know, there's a lot of
a lot of timeline, a lot of hockey left here.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
I just see it as a learning moment.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Guy, Do you think that it had more of an
impact than that, that this denotes something else or do
you think it was just another kind of like I
learned from that and don't do it again.
Speaker 6 (26:20):
Well that that you know, fluky own goal put in
by your own hand, you know, with zero point one
seconds left. I think it's easier to wash off something
like that, Joe. I don't know if Joe agrees, but
to me, the worst loss of the year is blowing
a three to nothing lead in Toronto in the third
period and not even getting a point out of it,
and they rebounded from that. So I think as long
(26:42):
as you got Sydney crust and I agree with what
what Mike said on his last Sports Cats. I think
the night is a very important game. So they because
it's not just one game now it's two. You know,
they blew the Dallas game with less than two minutes
to go and lost them the shootout. Haven't wont to
shootout this year, and in fact, you know, I think
they're one in six, one and seven in overtime and
shootout games this year. The killer is the first three
(27:04):
at the beginning of the year, they scored the time
goal and then you lose them a shoot on and
you're like, well, at least.
Speaker 8 (27:09):
We salvage a point.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
Now they're giving up the time goal, and they're not
only just giving it up, they're giving it up late.
Nashville beat him in overtime, scored with less than two
minutes to go. Dallas scored with less than two minutes
to go, beat him in a shootout. The Anaheid game,
a point one second left in your own defenseman puts
it past. I think those are more crushing because you
blew the two points rather than salvage the one.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
Oh guy, me and Mike We're talking. It was on
air to Today about how I thought the Toronto.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Loss was my toughest loss of the season.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
But what makes me upset about Monday night was the
almost exact same snare happened at the home opener.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Same thing.
Speaker 4 (27:48):
We to power play down the end of the ice,
like thirty to twenty seconds left, and boom, they come
all the way back down the ice short handed and
Jerry had to make a miraculous save with U Maulkin
and Carlson just st there looking at him like all
you had to do was kill seventeen seconds. It almost
(28:08):
happened again. That's what made me sick.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
Well, like Borky said, just tackle the guy. I mean,
when they call penalty that plays over and you know
what kills me. Joe is and I think News has
done a terrific job. Why are La Tang and Carlson
on the ice in that situation? You know, Watherspoon's been
so good defensively, I mean, I I just I don't know,
maybe he played the ship before, but I don't have
(28:30):
two offensive defensemen out there, and they had a couple
of opportunities with puck possession in the offensive zone with
the net empty, and couldn't quite you know, get a
good shot on goal because they gathered at late and had.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
To go around to back, try to wrap around to whatever, but.
Speaker 6 (28:44):
From top to bottom and then you know, you know,
you have that wide open net. In overtime on the
power play, hit the post off, the blade of the
stick settles in the crease, Crossby gets three pokes at it,
it doesn't go in.
Speaker 8 (28:56):
I couldn't go to sleep after that game was over.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Guy, did you get a chance to see the Joe
Burrow interview yesterday his media availability?
Speaker 6 (29:07):
No?
Speaker 8 (29:07):
I did not.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Boy, it looks bad in Cincinnati. I mean, he is
given some Andrew Luck kind of vibes like he might
be walking away from the game.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
He basically said, you know, it's got to be.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Fun if I'm going to keep doing this, and it's
not fun, and he hasn't been having fun for a
long time, and he's going through personal and professional issues.
He said all of the above, and it was the
most maudlin, you know, press availability I've seen an NFL
player conduct in quite some time. If you're a Bengals fan,
(29:42):
how do you sit there and hear that and think like, yeah,
we're moving.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
In the right direction.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Our franchise quarterback is thinking about giving up the sport.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
Well, when you think about I mean, the Steelers are
a much better situation than they are obviously, but they're
sort of the opposite. You know, They've they've got received,
they've got a franchise quarterback. Their defense has been so terrible.
I'm sure their fans are like and the Steelers strolled
this money at their defense and offensively, they've really struggled
since Ben Roethlisberger retired. But you if one, you're getting
(30:14):
the crap beat out of you and you're injured almost
every year, and two you see no light at the
end of the Maybe he's trying to set himself up
to be traded or whatever.
Speaker 8 (30:22):
You know, I did not. I don't have to listen
to it to try to get to get the vibe.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
But can you blame him, I mean, he get beat
up time after time, and look, and you know they've
bungled their situation management wise for years. They're not a
well run organization. So he might be just getting fed
up and trying to set himself up to get traded.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
It seems like he's just been getting beat up so
much there and he's been sacked more than Andrew Luck.
And he's the same age as Andrew Luck. When Andrew
Luck walked away from the game, that would be a
shocking development.
Speaker 8 (30:55):
Yeah, it would be.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
And you know, you look, even I thought Lamar Jackson,
even though they were talking about you know, he was
much more mobile than he has when he's had what
he's had a knees, had an ankle, he's.
Speaker 8 (31:06):
Had a hamstring this year. Even though he was a
lot more mobile.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
I still, you know, the Steelers for the most part
just or his kryptonite or whatever, I'm not impressed with.
Speaker 8 (31:16):
If they get behind and can't run the ball. I
just I don't believe in him either.
Speaker 6 (31:21):
I can't believe how this whole division is so different
than we thought it was going to be in August.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
Yeah, two five sub five hundred teams today or this
weekend playing with playoff implications in the Ravens and the Bengals.
Speaker 8 (31:35):
Yeah, boy, well what a good week weekend of games
on me?
Speaker 6 (31:38):
So often now, when you got Thursday night football, you
got Sunday morning football in Europe, you got Sunday.
Speaker 8 (31:43):
Night, Monday night, and you look at that schedule.
Speaker 6 (31:44):
I sit down at one o'clock, I'm like, I'm gonna
go put Ice Meld on the sidewalk.
Speaker 8 (31:50):
I don't want to watch this crap.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
You got Buffalo, New England, the Chargers in Kansas City, Indy, Seattle,
Green Bay, Denver, Lions, and Rams.
Speaker 8 (31:58):
I mean, this is a week to have the package
and be able to flip.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Around Packers Broncos.
Speaker 9 (32:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
Also another good game Vikings Cowboys, and of course Monday
Night Dolphins and Steelers. And Mike Tomlin's pretty good on
Monday Night. I don't know that you're gonna hear any
chance to get him fired on Monday Night football, at
least I hope not. They seemed to have reacted to
the outrage in Steeler Nation appropriately knocking down Baltimore with
(32:28):
basically the postseason on the line retain first place in
the AFC North with that win. What looked different and
what encourages you about that Steelers win?
Speaker 6 (32:39):
Well, you know, first of all, when you add some
size at the receiver position, you know, I mean Metcalf's
already six to two, and then you put Velvet scantling
in there at six four and Adam Deeelin six four.
Speaker 8 (32:54):
Whatever.
Speaker 6 (32:55):
Look, you know, I love Calvin Austin and Roman Wilson,
but they're both five nine. Scotty Miller's five nine. I
just think that opened things up so much more for Metcalf.
But that aside, it was the willingness to throw at first,
play the game. You throw the ball forty four yards
in the year, get a fifty two yard game on
it right off the bat. Now that you gotta worry
(33:15):
more and opens up play action pass and you know,
the run game everything. They had three passes of over
twenty yards in that game.
Speaker 8 (33:24):
He was three for three.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
They weren't even thrown downsiealed at all in some of
the games this year, So that that's encouraging to me.
Even if these two guys aren't aren't, you know, great receivers.
They've added some size and it just looked like in
that game that Metcalf was obviously way more open than
he has been. Tony Romo in the Buffalo game kept
saying he doesn't have any weapons, he doesn't have any
nobody's open. When it was a dismal performance by him,
(33:47):
even when he got guys, but immediately the next week,
they had a totally different look at wide receiver and
it gives me some And the other thing is we
talked about this before the Bears game, and the Bears
I said they might be good, but they haven't beaten anybody.
Speaker 8 (34:00):
Miami schedule's been a piece of cake. I mean they haven't.
Speaker 6 (34:05):
They had won four in a row, but the last
three were against Washington, New Orleans and the Jets.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
All three of them are three and ten, so they
got to prove something.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
They also, teams hate to get on there and play
in Miami in September when it's ninety degrees and hmid. Well,
the Dolphins don't fare very well in cold weather, and
it looks like it's going to be pretty bad.

Pro Shop get it direct from the team at shop

Speaker 8 (35:48):
Here's Tom Opperman.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
With steeersman on Sunday in Baltimore. They took control of
the Anty North Division. Now the first steve and keeping
it in their control and ultimately winning it is beating
the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football. If Mike Tomas
tracked on Monday Night, as any indication, that shouldn't be
a problem for the Steelers. Coach Mike Tomlin has a
twenty one and three record on Monday Night Football, and
the Steelers in general have won twenty two straight home
games on Monday Night. That being said, making it twenty
(36:12):
three straight won't be as easy as it may have
seemed a couple of months ago when Miami was one
and six, but they've gone five to one.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Since then, including winning four straight games.
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Over that four game streak, the Dolphins defense has given
up just thirteen point three points per game, the best
in the league during that stretch. Also contributing to Miami's
late season surge is a powerful running attack on offense
led by Starbuck Devin ah chan A. Chane is the
NFL's third leading rusher with one and twenty six yards,
and he's extremely explosive as he leads all backs in
(36:41):
yards per carry, averaging five point eight yards per touch.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
During their four game winning.
Speaker 7 (36:45):
Streak, the Dolphins have rushed for an average of one
hundred and ninety two point twenty five yards and are
coming off a two hundred and thirty nine yard rushing
performance against the Jets in their win on Sunday. I'm
Tom Opraman with the Steelers Report.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
You see the skyline rive over the bridges. We built
that Ironworkers Local Union number three. This isn't just a job,
it's a legacy and you can start
