Daw dv E Pittsburgh, an iHeart radio station.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Guaranteed human it's your radio home at the Pittsburghteelers one
or two point five d V and joining us now
on the program to kick off our last day on
air in twenty twenty five, brought to you by the
Gateway Clipper from the Football America podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
It's Dave damnascheck. Ladies and gentlemen, wonder if too.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Old lang zy that would be a that would be
or a one of our favorite Christmas.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
To Yeah, I don't think the Clipper could do it,
but you certainly can on the podcast we'll make available
for our Patreon listeners.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Okay, so before we get started, can I just congratulate
Dave on the success of his alma mater. I know
he has been living and dying with Indiana football for
all probably about a season and a half now, and
to fall finally get rewarded for all that faith and
patience and stick to itiveness.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Hope you're enjoying it the pursuit. Listen.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
You can play your games, but let me just say
something to you. I'm an old man. I think we
can all agree on that. How old am I? When
the Indiana Hoosiers vanquished Ohio State in the Big Ten
championship game. It was often mentioned throughout that broadcast that
this is the first time that IU has taken down
the Bucks since nineteen eighty eight October of nineteen eighty
(01:56):
eight in Memorial Stadium. And of course I already knew
that because I attended that game. I was a student
at the time. That's how old I am. So of
course I've been riding with Bill Mallory all the way
up the present day. I remember Trent Green and Antoine
Randall l and all the rest of it, fella, So
I've been riding along.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Now.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
I don't know if it's morally wrong that I have
simultaneously been rooting for the pitt Panthers. Call that or
it's polygamy, but that's what I've been.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Doing very different conferences.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
You're fine, all right, So let's talk about the Pittsburgh Steelers,
who are headed to the Motor City to take on
the Lions on a four to twenty five matchup. If
they lose this game, are you going to rest all
the starters against the Browns?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Dave Wow, because it won't matter.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
No, Yeah, I get that, it doesn't. I get that
it doesn't matter and by the way, I.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Got it sideways.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Like we were talking about last week, one of my
favorite things is pouring through the standings and all the implications.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
By the way the Patriots right.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I thought that I see I misread it. I was
looking over it and thought, well, the Steelers are going
to have both division and conference record over the Ravens,
and so if this, if they just beat the Browns,
uh the Steelers, that they would have locked up the
AFC North. But I guess common opponents is higher up
(03:27):
on the room. It's very it's very complicated to dumb
days to try and too complicated in fact. No, So
bottom line is I would not rest the starters, and
I doubt that Tomlins is going to do that as well.
You know, this is the big one to me. I
know that we've there's been a role in conversation for
not just four months, but for probably a couple of
(03:50):
years now. But I really do feel like this is
the one.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
This is going to be.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
A desperate Lions team, a good Lions team, but not
a great one. This is a you know, they're they're
they're they're mess, They're there, they are descending without Ben
Johnson and Aaron Glenn. That has been a gentle role
uh towards the mean from from the peak of this
Detroit Lions almost run uh to the super Bowl the
(04:16):
last couple of years. The idea that looking okay is
going to be good enough. I think they the Steelers,
if they're a viable playoff team, this is the week
that you show it. I will become a believer if
they can go up there. And I don't know about
moral victory or straight up victory, but there's got to
(04:37):
be something that I have not been overwhelmed as it
seems like the popular most of the populace has by
the win in Baltimore, which had some fluke to it,
and the Dolphins win, which I don't even know what
you can make about that too, and may well have
been drunk in that game. And by the way, it
was good to it was good to see too, because there's.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
A decent chance he's our quarterback in six Shut your mouth,
Shut your mouth, shut your mouth.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
I mean, given the way things have tracked the last
couple of years, is it implausible that if they got
a deal from him to dolphin to eat a giant
percentage of the contract that the Steelers would say no
to that, unless it's Kirk Cousins. I mean, I think
it's I think it's plausible. But yeah, I think that
the best thing that the Steelers have going for them
(05:26):
possibly is that the Ravens just aren't that good and
and maybe we'll see that when they play the Patriots.
But I still, if forced to choose, which I don't
believe you're forcing me to choose, but I still think
the Ravens are going to end up taking this division.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I hope to be wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I hope you're wrong as well, and I think that
they're very much in question right now because of Lamar's health,
and he took another day off this week, so I'm
not exactly sure where he is with everything. They don't
exactly seem to be on all cylinders. He and uh
Harbar don't seem to be in simpatico.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
So I am do you like philosophically Bowman? You are?
You know you are the face of steel or fandom
to some degree.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
There, I'm not true.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
You get cross with me if I criticized the team
with what when the game is going on, you get
angry with me as a friend.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I bust your chops a little bit and say, hey,
let's just root for them when things go good.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
I am rooting for them. Here here's the philosophical question.
Would you like it? Because I've always said people always
challenged me. Well a generation ago. A generation ago, people
I said, like, how pathetic do you have to be
to be a Vikings fan that you would root for
(06:51):
Brett Farr, the guy who tortured you for the last
decade and a half, That if he's the missing link
to you getting a Lombardi, it wouldn't be worth it.
Speaker 7 (06:58):
And people say you.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Would take Ray Lewis if it meant a Lombardi in Pittsburgh,
and I said, I absolutely was not. That is not
something I want.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
Now.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Burrow and Lamar have never won a Super Bowl, as
you know, would you then, because like, if you bring
in a ringer like Connor mcjesus would be a great
ad to the Penguins because he's never gotten over the hump.
So then the story would be Crosby helped him get there,
and so it would be for Burrow and Lamar Jackson
they haven't actually won it yet. I wouldn't want someone
(07:30):
else's mercenary. That was my knock against Russ and Aaron Rodgers.
I don't want these late stage mercenaries coming in here
to try to provide the difference. Would you be excited
about Joe Burrow or Lamar arriving in Pittsburgh by hooker
by crook between now and the start of.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Would you? Okay?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
I don't love the idea of it. I think Burrow,
for some reason, because he hasn't directly, you know, caused
us so much torment over the years. I don't think
I like that.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Now, now this is all This is personality based for me.
This is not necessarily team based. Because he asked me
the same question about uh, Carson Palmer. No, No, I
would not have wanted Carson Palmer. I absolutely hated Carson Palmer.
You know, uh, you move over to Baltimore there, Flacco,
(08:21):
the Flacco thing, Eh, I don't know that I would
have hated him quite as much. All I know is
I grew up. So when you say ray Lewis, I'm like, yeah,
I hate ray Lewis. I don't want him. What about
Patrick Queen, Yeah, I'm fine with it.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
All I know is that I mean I grew up
hating the Philadelphia flyers, despising the Philadelphia Flyers and despising
Dave Schultz more than all the other Philadelphia Flyers who
I had despised. And when the Penguins got him, ups
like go Schultzi, kick somebody. Yeah, why that about Hartnell?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Penguins fans hated Hartnell so much, and I was like,
if you put on a Penguin sweater, my god, this
town would love him.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Well, you know what. Now to answer my own question,
and now that I'm thinking this through to your point there,
bowman or and actually pursued it, you bring up that
the reason you don't do it spiritually, it was proven.
The personification of why you don't do this is Ron Hexstall.
He came in. He was a spy the whole time.
I did warn about that, and I felt paranoid for
(09:20):
saying it, but I was proven right ultimately he was.
He was a double agent, He infiltrated he I don't know.
He went over sixty six, you know, and and and
it went from there and you saw the results and
they weren't good. Here's another question I have for I think.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
One more one more on that vonteze Berfect No.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
No, Clay Matthews for sure.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Well, for me, it's the measure. The measure is have
have they gotten over the hump on their own? And
now we're adding them to try and to push us
further over the I like I say, if we are
helping drag a talent the finish line, well yeah, I
(10:05):
mean yeah, I don't want somebody who is primarily associated
with another team coming in. And then again I think
of old man Brian Trotchier coming over and contributing to
those couple of cups. So I'm not that resentful to him.
But I did say when people gave him a standing ovation,
when they introduced him like here he is number nineteen
(10:25):
Brian Trotcier. A lot of people in the Igloo I
was there that night cheered for him. They cheered it,
and I booed it, and I said, I I don't
cheer until he contributes that makes an actual contribution to
the Pittsburgh Penguins spoiler alert. I ended up cheering him,
which had to feel good when he won that stay
in the Cup.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
In his biography, actually he talks about that being the
turning point in his career here in Pittsburgh. Let me
ask you this, Dave with Christmas upon us here. I
know that you have always been our go to a
Phishonada when it comes to Christmas specials, the rank and specials,
especially the year without a Santa Claus, the what's the one?
Speaker 7 (11:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Well listen, first of all, a couple of things, if
you you know, like everybody likes to sell it, I
like to get into the to the holiday spirit and
all of that. But a couple of things you've got
to call out or you're not keeping it one hundred.
It's the kids say the Burl lives this this crazy
s O B. What kind of purb is he?
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Like?
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Uh? Some body waits for you? Kiss or once for me? No, Burl,
get your own, lady, What do you mean kiss? I'm
you You're at Christmas Day? You creep O No Burl,
And I'm going to put it somewhere else. What do
(11:48):
you say?
Speaker 8 (11:49):
What?
Speaker 4 (11:49):
What do you get that? Burrel? By the way, Burl
is a dynamite name for a baby. What's this little
cuties named Burl? The uh?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I not?
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Other good name is Rudolph and so things come out
of the gate. Okay in Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer,
the Christmas special that everybody loves when your regular programming
was interrupted by that spinning thing and then then you
got to watch Rudolph for the next hour. Is terrific,
except for the fact that early on we see Rudolph
(12:22):
just after birth in the cave with Donner and the
mama and and this miracle baby that immediately right after
birth starts talking. So it starts talking, this this reindeer
like mama, and then all of a sudden, his night
his nose goes red and his proud papa turns cross
(12:44):
immediately like, oh, oh no, we gotta hide that nose.
We can't let Stan to see that nose, Like this
is what kind of father are you? You just had
a baby, and this is your reaction is that it's
nose lights up, and oh, we got to cover that note,
And then he puts dirt on the miracle baby baby
who can talk, who can speak, puts dirt on the
baby's nose. And he's an abusive, emotionally abusive bother. And
(13:08):
then we find out why because then Santa does show
up at the cave to congratulate the parents on their baby,
and uh and uh, Santa comes in to look at this,
at this little kid, and the dirt comes off and
the nose goes red again, and he's like, oh, he'll
never ride it. He'll he'll never be a part of
my team if he has that red note. Santa is
(13:28):
a Santa's a uh, a vain old man demanding that
this little reindeer baby not have a shiny red nose.
He's a miracle baby, and and Donner and San are
teaming up on him, and this vain old man starts
as a fat slob, starts singing about like, uh that
that I am sure, I am old, like I don't know.
(13:51):
We just had a baby. Man got out of here,
you old man, let me ask you here. And then
you go all the way to the end of the
story that this red nose is somehow a blight on
the reindeer and on the North Pole community at large,
and then it gets it gets cloudy out one one
Christmas night, and then staying all of a sudden goes like, Rudolph,
(14:12):
with your nose so bright, won't you guide our sleigh
to night? Rudolph then and there should have said screw
old man. You had to shoot your mouth off and
sing your song. Now, good luck with Christmas. Man, I'm
out that would have been That would be the greatest
ending as a man of justice.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
That's what I would like to see.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Dave Dannischeck The Football America Podcast and also with some
strong thoughts on a Christmas classic and all right, I'm
asking everybody.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Top three must watch Christmas movies go kisser.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Ones for me, the I do include die Hard. I
do love watching Misery. Shout out Rob Reiner. I do
love watching because it's so snowy and out here in
la we don't get to enjoy that night. You feel
cold when I watch that movie and it's and it's
uh delightful, and then we already have watched My favorite
(15:07):
the better the brother, the older brother of Rudolph the
Red Nose Reindeer is Santa Claus is coming to town
in the origin story.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Yeah, of old Satan.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
I like that when he has the Red Beard and
all the rest of it, and uh the Winter Warlock and.
Speaker 9 (15:21):
And uh, you know, my food in front of the
the My favorite part of Rudolph is when they go
to the Island of Misfit Toys and they're all cast offs,
you know, and they go, oh, Rudolph, You're cast off,
just like us.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
He is No, I'm not if.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Shut your face, Dennis, Dennis the dentist who wants to
be a dentist. What they're clearly saying is the Ermie
gay that I mean that the story. What they're obscuring
is the dentist is gay. But they're like, I want
to be a dentist and we will not have that.
That is the That is behavior of the devil. But
of course they're not really talking about chemistry, are they.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Nobody wants to Connor Heyward in the box.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
He does look like that. It would be great if
throw us a Charlie Batch in the box though.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
It time. Everybody wants a Charlie in the box.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yes, Charlie in the box. Dave Danmasheck in the podcast.
Make sure you check out the Football America Podcast. Wishing
you and yours a happy, healthy holiday season and all.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
The best in twenty six day. Thanks for all the
great stuff all year long. Always we love you, buddy.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Ah You're the best. This is the highlight of my
week every football season, even if my performance doesn't doesn't
indicate as much. It's it's the best thing I get
to do. I appreciate you. Bowman. The whole gang. Keep
up the great work, Tad. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.
Talk to you in twenty six. Hopefully the Steelers will
(16:54):
be a playoff team by then.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Thing that pops in your head, what is the present
as a kid that you got that was the life changer?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
I think a bicycle.
Speaker 10 (17:08):
I got a I got a bicycle one year that
was not something that my dad had pieced together in
the garage that wobbled when you pedaled it. I actually
got it when I got it. When I got it,
oh yeah, I had a couple of spare.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Park bikes, you know. Oh yes.
Speaker 10 (17:23):
His argument was, well, let's see if he likes it. Well,
what kid doesn't want to bike?
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Dad? You know? But I was riding around in a
in a rust bucket for a while. And then when
I've got a.
Speaker 10 (17:32):
New bike I got, I got that huffy evil canevil one,
and that was I thought.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I thought I had super powered.
Speaker 11 (17:39):
The confidence, the confidence, and still with a new bike,
he trusted me with this thing.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Nineteen seventy six.
Speaker 10 (17:48):
Nineteen seventy six, Yeah, I thought I thought I had
super power.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Now I know that bike and that bike had a
plastic like uh.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
The plate on the front the handlebar.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
No, didn't it look like a gas tank on a motorcycle.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
It was like right underneath. I didn't have the one
with the gas tank. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Speaker 7 (18:11):
Me?
Speaker 10 (18:11):
It wasn't yeah, exactly no, but I know. But it
had that plastic piece that looked like you were riding
a button. No, but I had like a mine had
a like a plastic plate on the front of the handlebars.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
But I removed that. I didn't like the way that
sounded when I was right, Yeah, I didn't enjoy that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And now that was in Florida or was it in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 10 (18:34):
That was in Pittsburgh. That was before my dreams were shattered.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
I didn't have to in pint.
Speaker 10 (18:38):
An imagination to deny my life so that I could
become an artist.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Next question, not much to delve into there, Right all right?
Speaker 2 (18:49):
By that game, right, all right? Did you take the
bike out immediately? Regardless of weather it was at we
were riding in the snow right away.
Speaker 10 (19:00):
Took a spell when the ice hit a slush puddle
too hard and uh. And then in the summer it
was at the slag dump, kind of going downside piles
of you know decimated call cinder. So that's where we
used to play in Swissfeld. There's a slash dump right
behind Memorial Field. Sure there was a hole in the fence.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
We'd get in there.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
I think we were going BMX tricks. No one said nothing.
You come home just covered and soot.
Speaker 7 (19:27):
You have fun.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Oh it was a blast. Yeah, I loved it.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
So you're my older brother Charlie's age and my brother's
Charlie and Gary were like Irish twins and they always
got like the same stuff.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
But evil can Evil.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I cannot impress upon people enough what a big deal
it was for someone your age to get Evil Cane.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
I was.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
I was too young for that, but I just share
all the evil.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
And there was one year my dad got them or
Sanna whatever got them the Evil can eevil set that
was like a motorcycle and there's the action figure there's
on the motorcycle and when it looped and you could
create jumps and everything like that. And my dad was
very excited about this. And so his two idiot sons
go down and they like set up a whole track
(20:09):
for him to film with the Super eight. He wants
to see, you know, like their first creation with this,
and what jump that they're gonna have and is he.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Gonna go over the Snake river or what is it?
Speaker 2 (20:19):
It had a big green snake river canyon that came
with it that you could set it up to jump over.
And they set it up and immediately my dad's like,
all right, go and they're like they, you know, pull
the thing to get it revmed up. And they put
it on the track and it goes flying down the
track and it does the loop and then everyone's like oh.
(20:41):
And then it goes off a jump and goes up
into the air and goes way faster than they thought
it was going to and lands right in the fire
on fire on Christmas.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And immediately to melt. It just gone that one tie
one one. Yeah, shooting anything. You gotta know what's down range.
That's right right into the fireplace.
Speaker 7 (21:07):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
It like landed and took a hard right kind of
like how Evil would land.
Speaker 12 (21:13):
Yeah, he would do that every night. That's why you
watch yes, right, damn hard right, turn right into the fire.
The actually pumps up into the air and.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Burns into a grizzly death, never to be used again.
Speaker 10 (21:30):
Even And I knew as a kid when he when
Evil Canevel tried to jump the Grand Canyon, when they
rolled that rickety rocket out there that looked like wildly
he put it together.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
I think even as a nine year old.
Speaker 10 (21:43):
I was like, I don't think this is gonna go well,
I don't think this is gonna go well.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Did you ever see the Evil Knievel documentary that was
on I think it was on Netflix or it might
have been. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Netflix. And I
think Johnny Knoxville.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Is that makes sense, That makes sense.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
And it is a tale of not just like the
craziest person you ever like. It just seems inconceivable that
he would be this destructive for his own edification, like
it made him happy because to him it was the
only way to stay famous and the only way he
(22:22):
could be a smoking, boozing babe hound was to be famous,
and nothing was more important to him than being famous
and desired.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
If you have no other skills in life, yeah.
Speaker 11 (22:34):
Then jumping a couple buses while they're on fire seems
like a good plan.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Yes, you know, bones heel and chicks dig scars was
the famous joke from Simpsons, but that was basically what
he thought, and he would. And he was like, not
the greatest person, maybe not somebody you want to be
your dad?
Speaker 11 (22:50):
Do you really want to delve into stuntmen's pass and
make morals? I mean, these people are on the fringes
of society.
Speaker 10 (22:56):
When whenever I saw ev Knavo, I just thought step dad.
He had stepdad written all over him. He just had stepdad.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Written on him.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
He was basically, like you said, stunt man, He's like
right out of a Burt Reynolds movie in the set,
like something from Hooper, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (23:11):
That was his real life one hundred He might have been.
Speaker 11 (23:14):
A stepdad and his step son was probably like, yeah,
jump the canyon.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Yeah exactly. You know, she jumped the files place on
your life.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
But you know that's funny, that's that is what his
son jumped. His son jumped the Caesar. It became Yeah,
Robbie Knievel, he was the one legacy to have to inherit.
Speaker 11 (23:34):
You want to do you think Brownie James has tough
shoes to film?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
I mean, exactly, at this rate, you're never gonna jump
seventeen buses. What a disappointment. So your you's are already
for for the holiday. When's the Wilster get there?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Ry rock and roll man. He gets him on the twentieth.
Speaker 10 (23:53):
I got a little surprise for him, uh for ed
his place, but that don't get there till Wednesday. So
I have got him convinced to stay here from the
twentieth to the twenty fifth. And his mother is very excited.
So she's got him home for four days. So that'll
be round the clock full fridge. I'm actually doing it
for selfish reasons because he'll be home. They'll be stuff
(24:16):
in the fridge. They'll be cookies, they'll be whatever his
favorite meal. You know, the prince is coming home, so
I'll get to eat and part take in that tip.
Now you know I need something from the store. Now
she's like, you got a car? Oh okay. The boy
comes home and it's that that fridge starts to look
like Narnia.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You just open well, Billy, hoping you have the happiest

Speaker 3 (00:42):
It's Dave damnascheck. Ladies and gentlemen, wonder if too.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Old lang zy that would be a that would be
or a one of our favorite Christmas.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
To Yeah, I don't think the Clipper could do it,
but you certainly can on the podcast we'll make available
for our Patreon listeners.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Okay, so before we get started, can I just congratulate
Dave on the success of his alma mater. I know
he has been living and dying with Indiana football for
all probably about a season and a half now, and
to fall finally get rewarded for all that faith and
patience and stick to itiveness.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Hope you're enjoying it the pursuit. Listen.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
You can play your games, but let me just say
something to you. I'm an old man. I think we
can all agree on that. How old am I? When
the Indiana Hoosiers vanquished Ohio State in the Big Ten
championship game. It was often mentioned throughout that broadcast that
this is the first time that IU has taken down
the Bucks since nineteen eighty eight October of nineteen eighty
(01:56):
eight in Memorial Stadium. And of course I already knew
that because I attended that game. I was a student
at the time. That's how old I am. So of
course I've been riding with Bill Mallory all the way
up the present day. I remember Trent Green and Antoine
Randall l and all the rest of it, fella, So
I've been riding along.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Now.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
I don't know if it's morally wrong that I have
simultaneously been rooting for the pitt Panthers. Call that or
it's polygamy, but that's what I've been.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Doing very different conferences.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
You're fine, all right, So let's talk about the Pittsburgh Steelers,
who are headed to the Motor City to take on
the Lions on a four to twenty five matchup. If
they lose this game, are you going to rest all
the starters against the Browns?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Dave Wow, because it won't matter.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
No, Yeah, I get that, it doesn't. I get that
it doesn't matter and by the way, I.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Got it sideways.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Like we were talking about last week, one of my
favorite things is pouring through the standings and all the implications.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
By the way the Patriots right.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I thought that I see I misread it. I was
looking over it and thought, well, the Steelers are going
to have both division and conference record over the Ravens,
and so if this, if they just beat the Browns,
uh the Steelers, that they would have locked up the
AFC North. But I guess common opponents is higher up
(03:27):
on the room. It's very it's very complicated to dumb
days to try and too complicated in fact. No, So
bottom line is I would not rest the starters, and
I doubt that Tomlins is going to do that as well.
You know, this is the big one to me. I
know that we've there's been a role in conversation for
not just four months, but for probably a couple of
(03:50):
years now. But I really do feel like this is
the one.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
This is going to be.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
A desperate Lions team, a good Lions team, but not
a great one. This is a you know, they're they're
they're they're mess, They're there, they are descending without Ben
Johnson and Aaron Glenn. That has been a gentle role
uh towards the mean from from the peak of this
Detroit Lions almost run uh to the super Bowl the
(04:16):
last couple of years. The idea that looking okay is
going to be good enough. I think they the Steelers,
if they're a viable playoff team, this is the week
that you show it. I will become a believer if
they can go up there. And I don't know about
moral victory or straight up victory, but there's got to
(04:37):
be something that I have not been overwhelmed as it
seems like the popular most of the populace has by
the win in Baltimore, which had some fluke to it,
and the Dolphins win, which I don't even know what
you can make about that too, and may well have
been drunk in that game. And by the way, it
was good to it was good to see too, because there's.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
A decent chance he's our quarterback in six Shut your mouth,
Shut your mouth, shut your mouth.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
I mean, given the way things have tracked the last
couple of years, is it implausible that if they got
a deal from him to dolphin to eat a giant
percentage of the contract that the Steelers would say no
to that, unless it's Kirk Cousins. I mean, I think
it's I think it's plausible. But yeah, I think that
the best thing that the Steelers have going for them
(05:26):
possibly is that the Ravens just aren't that good and
and maybe we'll see that when they play the Patriots.
But I still, if forced to choose, which I don't
believe you're forcing me to choose, but I still think
the Ravens are going to end up taking this division.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I hope to be wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I hope you're wrong as well, and I think that
they're very much in question right now because of Lamar's health,
and he took another day off this week, so I'm
not exactly sure where he is with everything. They don't
exactly seem to be on all cylinders. He and uh
Harbar don't seem to be in simpatico.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
So I am do you like philosophically Bowman? You are?
You know you are the face of steel or fandom
to some degree.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
There, I'm not true.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
You get cross with me if I criticized the team
with what when the game is going on, you get
angry with me as a friend.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I bust your chops a little bit and say, hey,
let's just root for them when things go good.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
I am rooting for them. Here here's the philosophical question.
Would you like it? Because I've always said people always
challenged me. Well a generation ago. A generation ago, people
I said, like, how pathetic do you have to be
to be a Vikings fan that you would root for
(06:51):
Brett Farr, the guy who tortured you for the last
decade and a half, That if he's the missing link
to you getting a Lombardi, it wouldn't be worth it.
Speaker 7 (06:58):
And people say you.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Would take Ray Lewis if it meant a Lombardi in Pittsburgh,
and I said, I absolutely was not. That is not
something I want.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
Now.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Burrow and Lamar have never won a Super Bowl, as
you know, would you then, because like, if you bring
in a ringer like Connor mcjesus would be a great
ad to the Penguins because he's never gotten over the hump.
So then the story would be Crosby helped him get there,
and so it would be for Burrow and Lamar Jackson
they haven't actually won it yet. I wouldn't want someone
(07:30):
else's mercenary. That was my knock against Russ and Aaron Rodgers.
I don't want these late stage mercenaries coming in here
to try to provide the difference. Would you be excited
about Joe Burrow or Lamar arriving in Pittsburgh by hooker
by crook between now and the start of.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Would you? Okay?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
I don't love the idea of it. I think Burrow,
for some reason, because he hasn't directly, you know, caused
us so much torment over the years. I don't think
I like that.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Now, now this is all This is personality based for me.
This is not necessarily team based. Because he asked me
the same question about uh, Carson Palmer. No, No, I
would not have wanted Carson Palmer. I absolutely hated Carson Palmer.
You know, uh, you move over to Baltimore there, Flacco,
(08:21):
the Flacco thing, Eh, I don't know that I would
have hated him quite as much. All I know is
I grew up. So when you say ray Lewis, I'm like, yeah,
I hate ray Lewis. I don't want him. What about
Patrick Queen, Yeah, I'm fine with it.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
All I know is that I mean I grew up
hating the Philadelphia flyers, despising the Philadelphia Flyers and despising
Dave Schultz more than all the other Philadelphia Flyers who
I had despised. And when the Penguins got him, ups
like go Schultzi, kick somebody. Yeah, why that about Hartnell?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Penguins fans hated Hartnell so much, and I was like,
if you put on a Penguin sweater, my god, this
town would love him.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Well, you know what. Now to answer my own question,
and now that I'm thinking this through to your point there,
bowman or and actually pursued it, you bring up that
the reason you don't do it spiritually, it was proven.
The personification of why you don't do this is Ron Hexstall.
He came in. He was a spy the whole time.
I did warn about that, and I felt paranoid for
(09:20):
saying it, but I was proven right ultimately he was.
He was a double agent, He infiltrated he I don't know.
He went over sixty six, you know, and and and
it went from there and you saw the results and
they weren't good. Here's another question I have for I think.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
One more one more on that vonteze Berfect No.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
No, Clay Matthews for sure.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Well, for me, it's the measure. The measure is have
have they gotten over the hump on their own? And
now we're adding them to try and to push us
further over the I like I say, if we are
helping drag a talent the finish line, well yeah, I
(10:05):
mean yeah, I don't want somebody who is primarily associated
with another team coming in. And then again I think
of old man Brian Trotchier coming over and contributing to
those couple of cups. So I'm not that resentful to him.
But I did say when people gave him a standing ovation,
when they introduced him like here he is number nineteen
(10:25):
Brian Trotcier. A lot of people in the Igloo I
was there that night cheered for him. They cheered it,
and I booed it, and I said, I I don't
cheer until he contributes that makes an actual contribution to
the Pittsburgh Penguins spoiler alert. I ended up cheering him,
which had to feel good when he won that stay
in the Cup.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
In his biography, actually he talks about that being the
turning point in his career here in Pittsburgh. Let me
ask you this, Dave with Christmas upon us here. I
know that you have always been our go to a
Phishonada when it comes to Christmas specials, the rank and specials,
especially the year without a Santa Claus, the what's the one?
Speaker 7 (11:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Well listen, first of all, a couple of things, if
you you know, like everybody likes to sell it, I
like to get into the to the holiday spirit and
all of that. But a couple of things you've got
to call out or you're not keeping it one hundred.
It's the kids say the Burl lives this this crazy
s O B. What kind of purb is he?
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Like?
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Uh? Some body waits for you? Kiss or once for me? No, Burl,
get your own, lady, What do you mean kiss? I'm
you You're at Christmas Day? You creep O No Burl,
And I'm going to put it somewhere else. What do
(11:48):
you say?
Speaker 8 (11:49):
What?
Speaker 4 (11:49):
What do you get that? Burrel? By the way, Burl
is a dynamite name for a baby. What's this little
cuties named Burl? The uh?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I not?
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Other good name is Rudolph and so things come out
of the gate. Okay in Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer,
the Christmas special that everybody loves when your regular programming
was interrupted by that spinning thing and then then you
got to watch Rudolph for the next hour. Is terrific,
except for the fact that early on we see Rudolph
(12:22):
just after birth in the cave with Donner and the
mama and and this miracle baby that immediately right after
birth starts talking. So it starts talking, this this reindeer
like mama, and then all of a sudden, his night
his nose goes red and his proud papa turns cross
(12:44):
immediately like, oh, oh no, we gotta hide that nose.
We can't let Stan to see that nose, Like this
is what kind of father are you? You just had
a baby, and this is your reaction is that it's
nose lights up, and oh, we got to cover that note,
And then he puts dirt on the miracle baby baby
who can talk, who can speak, puts dirt on the
baby's nose. And he's an abusive, emotionally abusive bother. And
(13:08):
then we find out why because then Santa does show
up at the cave to congratulate the parents on their baby,
and uh and uh, Santa comes in to look at this,
at this little kid, and the dirt comes off and
the nose goes red again, and he's like, oh, he'll
never ride it. He'll he'll never be a part of
my team if he has that red note. Santa is
(13:28):
a Santa's a uh, a vain old man demanding that
this little reindeer baby not have a shiny red nose.
He's a miracle baby, and and Donner and San are
teaming up on him, and this vain old man starts
as a fat slob, starts singing about like, uh that
that I am sure, I am old, like I don't know.
(13:51):
We just had a baby. Man got out of here,
you old man, let me ask you here. And then
you go all the way to the end of the
story that this red nose is somehow a blight on
the reindeer and on the North Pole community at large,
and then it gets it gets cloudy out one one
Christmas night, and then staying all of a sudden goes like, Rudolph,
(14:12):
with your nose so bright, won't you guide our sleigh
to night? Rudolph then and there should have said screw
old man. You had to shoot your mouth off and
sing your song. Now, good luck with Christmas. Man, I'm
out that would have been That would be the greatest
ending as a man of justice.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
That's what I would like to see.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Dave Dannischeck The Football America Podcast and also with some
strong thoughts on a Christmas classic and all right, I'm
asking everybody.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Top three must watch Christmas movies go kisser.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Ones for me, the I do include die Hard. I
do love watching Misery. Shout out Rob Reiner. I do
love watching because it's so snowy and out here in
la we don't get to enjoy that night. You feel
cold when I watch that movie and it's and it's
uh delightful, and then we already have watched My favorite
(15:07):
the better the brother, the older brother of Rudolph the
Red Nose Reindeer is Santa Claus is coming to town
in the origin story.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Yeah, of old Satan.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
I like that when he has the Red Beard and
all the rest of it, and uh the Winter Warlock and.
Speaker 9 (15:21):
And uh, you know, my food in front of the
the My favorite part of Rudolph is when they go
to the Island of Misfit Toys and they're all cast offs,
you know, and they go, oh, Rudolph, You're cast off,
just like us.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
He is No, I'm not if.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Shut your face, Dennis, Dennis the dentist who wants to
be a dentist. What they're clearly saying is the Ermie
gay that I mean that the story. What they're obscuring
is the dentist is gay. But they're like, I want
to be a dentist and we will not have that.
That is the That is behavior of the devil. But
of course they're not really talking about chemistry, are they.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Nobody wants to Connor Heyward in the box.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
He does look like that. It would be great if
throw us a Charlie Batch in the box though.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
It time. Everybody wants a Charlie in the box.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yes, Charlie in the box. Dave Danmasheck in the podcast.

Talk to you in twenty six. Hopefully the Steelers will
(16:54):
be a playoff team by then.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Thing that pops in your head, what is the present
as a kid that you got that was the life changer?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
I think a bicycle.
Speaker 10 (17:08):
I got a I got a bicycle one year that
was not something that my dad had pieced together in
the garage that wobbled when you pedaled it. I actually
got it when I got it. When I got it,
oh yeah, I had a couple of spare.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Park bikes, you know. Oh yes.
Speaker 10 (17:23):
His argument was, well, let's see if he likes it. Well,
what kid doesn't want to bike?
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Dad? You know? But I was riding around in a
in a rust bucket for a while. And then when
I've got a.
Speaker 10 (17:32):
New bike I got, I got that huffy evil canevil one,
and that was I thought.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I thought I had super powered.
Speaker 11 (17:39):
The confidence, the confidence, and still with a new bike,
he trusted me with this thing.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Nineteen seventy six.
Speaker 10 (17:48):
Nineteen seventy six, Yeah, I thought I thought I had
super power.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Now I know that bike and that bike had a
plastic like uh.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
The plate on the front the handlebar.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
No, didn't it look like a gas tank on a motorcycle.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
It was like right underneath. I didn't have the one
with the gas tank. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Speaker 7 (18:11):
Me?
Speaker 10 (18:11):
It wasn't yeah, exactly no, but I know. But it
had that plastic piece that looked like you were riding
a button. No, but I had like a mine had
a like a plastic plate on the front of the handlebars.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
But I removed that. I didn't like the way that
sounded when I was right, Yeah, I didn't enjoy that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And now that was in Florida or was it in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 10 (18:34):
That was in Pittsburgh. That was before my dreams were shattered.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
I didn't have to in pint.
Speaker 10 (18:38):
An imagination to deny my life so that I could
become an artist.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Next question, not much to delve into there, Right all right?
Speaker 2 (18:49):
By that game, right, all right? Did you take the
bike out immediately? Regardless of weather it was at we
were riding in the snow right away.
Speaker 10 (19:00):
Took a spell when the ice hit a slush puddle
too hard and uh. And then in the summer it
was at the slag dump, kind of going downside piles
of you know decimated call cinder. So that's where we
used to play in Swissfeld. There's a slash dump right
behind Memorial Field. Sure there was a hole in the fence.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
We'd get in there.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
I think we were going BMX tricks. No one said nothing.
You come home just covered and soot.
Speaker 7 (19:27):
You have fun.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Oh it was a blast. Yeah, I loved it.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
So you're my older brother Charlie's age and my brother's
Charlie and Gary were like Irish twins and they always
got like the same stuff.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
But evil can Evil.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I cannot impress upon people enough what a big deal
it was for someone your age to get Evil Cane.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
I was.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
I was too young for that, but I just share
all the evil.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
And there was one year my dad got them or
Sanna whatever got them the Evil can eevil set that
was like a motorcycle and there's the action figure there's
on the motorcycle and when it looped and you could
create jumps and everything like that. And my dad was
very excited about this. And so his two idiot sons
go down and they like set up a whole track
(20:09):
for him to film with the Super eight. He wants
to see, you know, like their first creation with this,
and what jump that they're gonna have and is he.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Gonna go over the Snake river or what is it?
Speaker 2 (20:19):
It had a big green snake river canyon that came
with it that you could set it up to jump over.
And they set it up and immediately my dad's like,
all right, go and they're like they, you know, pull
the thing to get it revmed up. And they put
it on the track and it goes flying down the
track and it does the loop and then everyone's like oh.
(20:41):
And then it goes off a jump and goes up
into the air and goes way faster than they thought
it was going to and lands right in the fire
on fire on Christmas.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And immediately to melt. It just gone that one tie
one one. Yeah, shooting anything. You gotta know what's down range.
That's right right into the fireplace.
Speaker 7 (21:07):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
It like landed and took a hard right kind of
like how Evil would land.
Speaker 12 (21:13):
Yeah, he would do that every night. That's why you
watch yes, right, damn hard right, turn right into the fire.
The actually pumps up into the air and.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Burns into a grizzly death, never to be used again.
Speaker 10 (21:30):
Even And I knew as a kid when he when
Evil Canevel tried to jump the Grand Canyon, when they
rolled that rickety rocket out there that looked like wildly
he put it together.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
I think even as a nine year old.
Speaker 10 (21:43):
I was like, I don't think this is gonna go well,
I don't think this is gonna go well.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Did you ever see the Evil Knievel documentary that was
on I think it was on Netflix or it might
have been. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Netflix. And I
think Johnny Knoxville.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Is that makes sense, That makes sense.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
And it is a tale of not just like the
craziest person you ever like. It just seems inconceivable that
he would be this destructive for his own edification, like
it made him happy because to him it was the
only way to stay famous and the only way he
(22:22):
could be a smoking, boozing babe hound was to be famous,
and nothing was more important to him than being famous
and desired.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
If you have no other skills in life, yeah.
Speaker 11 (22:34):
Then jumping a couple buses while they're on fire seems
like a good plan.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Yes, you know, bones heel and chicks dig scars was
the famous joke from Simpsons, but that was basically what
he thought, and he would. And he was like, not
the greatest person, maybe not somebody you want to be
your dad?
Speaker 11 (22:50):
Do you really want to delve into stuntmen's pass and
make morals? I mean, these people are on the fringes
of society.
Speaker 10 (22:56):
When whenever I saw ev Knavo, I just thought step dad.
He had stepdad written all over him. He just had stepdad.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Written on him.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
He was basically, like you said, stunt man, He's like
right out of a Burt Reynolds movie in the set,
like something from Hooper, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (23:11):
That was his real life one hundred He might have been.
Speaker 11 (23:14):
A stepdad and his step son was probably like, yeah,
jump the canyon.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Yeah exactly. You know, she jumped the files place on
your life.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
But you know that's funny, that's that is what his
son jumped. His son jumped the Caesar. It became Yeah,
Robbie Knievel, he was the one legacy to have to inherit.
Speaker 11 (23:34):
You want to do you think Brownie James has tough
shoes to film?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
I mean, exactly, at this rate, you're never gonna jump
seventeen buses. What a disappointment. So your you's are already
for for the holiday. When's the Wilster get there?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Ry rock and roll man. He gets him on the twentieth.
Speaker 10 (23:53):
I got a little surprise for him, uh for ed
his place, but that don't get there till Wednesday. So
I have got him convinced to stay here from the
twentieth to the twenty fifth. And his mother is very excited.
So she's got him home for four days. So that'll
be round the clock full fridge. I'm actually doing it
for selfish reasons because he'll be home. They'll be stuff
(24:16):
in the fridge. They'll be cookies, they'll be whatever his
favorite meal. You know, the prince is coming home, so
I'll get to eat and part take in that tip.
Now you know I need something from the store. Now
