Pittsburgh Nativity scene where you have Myron Cope as a
baby in there. Yeah, and the wise man, well, rixy
Back would be Franco's catching the baby of course, francoing
the baby.
Speaker 3 (00:33):

whistle hanging out with us and Morning Ted, Good morning friends.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
In your ears. I'm sorry, I'm still practicing.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
For the next time I go to Nico's and do
karaoke and I pick in your eyes. We were just
sitting listening to that Peter Gabriel song as we were
getting ready to do Jump into the Morning Show here,
and it's a good karaoke song because you can get
like four or five people in on that one, just
to do the whole end parties.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Hi, I feel like we can all go together.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yeah, I mean the DJ will as we get to
that part, he will start to fade it out and
then you'd have to be like, no, no, no, no, bring
it back up.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
We're doing it.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
We're doing the whole thing. We're doing it, dude, in
your rides. Okay, all right, here you go. Uh packed past.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
As I said, Missy Matthews will be joining us Big
Cat from Barstool Sports.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Part of my take.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I'll tell you what, his Bears have a big game
this weekend against the Packers and this is the real test. Uh,
it's a game of the weekend. Really Bears Packers with
the NFC basically the number one NFC ranking, on the line,
and certainly their division lead for the NFC North is
in the UH. In the questioning on that one, I
(02:52):
still don't think the Bears are as good as their record.
I think the Packers are actually getting better. But we'll
talk to Big Kat about that. Plus college football, they're
gonna end up telling you, I think it's this weekend.
Is in selection Saturday this weekend. Don't they give me
the the lowdown of who makes it into the playoffs?
Guy Junker also hitting us up here nine today and
Mike with the latest.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
You know.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Aaron Rodgers talking with the media yesterday, he.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Was asked about his comments postgame where he said, you know,
he was asked, hey, in a perfect world, what does
it look like?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
What do you want from your receivers?
Speaker 7 (03:24):
And he was like, oh, you know, show up to meetings,
bring me cake, and also, you know, check to the
right route when I checked to it, you know, don't
run the wrong one.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
So people assumed what he was saying there was that
there were receivers who were not going to the film study,
and he clarified yesterday and said, no, no, it's on.
I mean he said that was just my ideal scenario.
These are the things we have to do. But then
he cryptically said, I'm not going to talk about any
of the extracurricular stuff, So I don't know what that means.
(03:59):
And I think that's the thing Mike was hitting on,
which is that these extra film studies he has at
his house where he gets people to come over there,
you know, and bring him cake and bring them cake
for his birthday. I guarantee he was.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
A Giant Eagle cake had to be a Giantinggle cake.
I hope. I want it to be.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Yeah, I feel like he has dietary restrictions though that
would make that impossible.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Well, you know my feelings about the Giant Eagle Bakery.
I think it's as good as any bakery in town.
The quality control is insane. You can go, you know,
when I go to the Giant Eagle and erie, that
bakery is amazing.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
It's crazy. I only go to Giant Eagle for Edie's birthdays.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yeah, and they have knockoff all the tortu cakes there.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
That are pretty even good.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Just that fuch.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I mean there's no real you know, replacing the Prantles
almond tort cake.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
I mean that is nationally renowned.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
The gold standard, but the one that Giant Eagle's pretty
damn good. And they do cupcakes all men torqu cupcakes,
which are also pretty megan.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Anyways, I'm not sure if that's what Rogers had the
other night, but.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I do think he wants people going to his house
for films to and he's mad because people aren't showing up,
which reminds me there.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Was this priest in high school.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I went to you know, Uber Catholic school, as you know,
and he started a club called a Teenage.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Action Club, all right, and yeah, some flags, a couple
of flags, tack tac a network you.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yeah, you were kind of required to be in tact
because you were told that this was necessary for your
call of transcripts. And there are a lot of reluctant people,
myself among them. I'm like, all right, I'll join. I'm
not doing anything, all right. Well, they always had a
retreat where they would go camping, this cabin thing. I
(05:44):
never went on that. I'm like, eh, Bridge too far
from me, dude, I'm not doing that. My brother went
and he was like, oh, it's weird. He's like it
was really weird. This the priest who's running the thing
was like really mad because he's like, hey, I've got
you know, there's a movie room and all the kids
are watching the movie at night and they're like hanging
(06:05):
out blah blah blah, and he's like, hey, well, you know,
I got a poker game over here. How come nobody
wants to come up play in the poker room, you know,
And everyone's.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Like, that's a it's a smaller room and you.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Know, it's dark in there. It's weird, and we don't
want to go in there like movies. And he was
mad because nobody would come in and he was like,
come on, we're gonna we'll smoke cigars and we'll you know,
and he's like just got his like the wife beater
tea on type thing, you know, like.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
We'll be men.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
And everyone's like, yeah, we don't want to do that,
and so nobody would go and do it, and he
would throw the cards down and get all mad. I
wonder if that's what's going on with there, and if
he's just mad because people aren't coming over to his party.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
Oh, he could be that kind of going out. Also,
he's like a little self conscious and forty two years old. Yeah,
you guys, don't want to hang out with old Aaron anymore.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Why the heck not? We got fun stuff over here.
Were there's originals.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
As many as you want, you guys like back Cammon,
I learned to play abroad, Jim Rummy.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Is no one gonna come play Jin Rummy with your quarterback?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
No, And I think they responded and all showed up
for his birthday party. But prior to that, I don't know,
maybe that was the real issue.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
So you guys do know where I live. He's all mad, passive,
aggressive the whole time they're there. If possible, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I do know that he's got this look on his
face right now, like I shouldn't have done this.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Doesn't he doesn't.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
It kind of look like he's kind of like, yeah,
this was a mistake. I really should have, you know,
should have kept himself in that Schrodinger's quarterback box that
Will Howard is in right now.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
He's both not good enough and he is the answer
to all the problems. Yeah, the mystery of Aaron Rodgers
being you know, the answer is it's we solved it.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
We figured it out exactly and now we know.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
And I still think it can be a capable quarterback,
and I think it can be better than what we
had last year, honestly, if he got some protection. But
I think it's you know, toothpastes out of the tube there.
He seems to be a little skittish. He's running around
like crazy in the pocket right now, trying to get
rid of the ball and trying to do too much
at the same time, which is makes.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
For an odd alchemy, and we need him.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
To calm down, calm down. I wish we could have
got him in for that Bears game. I think missing
that Bears game really screwed him up because that that's
always been his elixir. That would have given him life
to get to play sold on soldier field against the Bears. Traditionally,
that has been what is pumped him back up.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 6 (08:44):
Screaming at someone's Graham in the in the stands, Yeah, that.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Could have breathed new life into him. The other I
own you, Nana, Are you okay? Discount double check interface?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
You know.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
The other thing too, is this rich thing is not
going away. I mean this is not going away until
the season is over. Whenever that is, It's it's complet
It's just another thing.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
You know, to add on to being forty two.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
And not having twenty five year olds want to come
to your house to hang out.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
It's got at this is this is you know, we
don't know that that's the case. That is my supposition
here that what he was actually complaining about is nobody
wants to come play boggle.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
And then you do go over there and it's like
the uh, the guy they rip off at the beginning
of the third act of Boogie Nights.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, come on, Miles, Teller is walking behind him, just
throwing whippets down on the ground.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Anyways, Abby's got a news update for you. What's going on?
Speaker 4 (09:52):
And there's this hours brought to you by your neighborhood
Ford Store. Breezy and cold today with a high of
thirty four, but later on we are going to see
a little bit of sunshine. It is a very cold
day to be thinking about things like soccer. But there's
a bit of a celebration down town today for it,
and so I want to tell you about it because
it also might cause you a little bit of traffic
woes late afternoon. The Pittsburgh River Hounds are hosting a
(10:15):
championship rally today to celebrate their first ever USL Championship title.
So the Riverhounds defeated FS Tulsa in a penalty shootout
last month to win the championship title. So Bob Popienni
is going to be m seeing this afternoon. It's gonna
be with Mayor ed Gainey. Sarah am In She will
(10:43):
be in attendance as well. Fans will have the chance
to meet and celebrate with coaches and players to take
pictures with the USL Championship Cup. But Grant Street in
downtown Pittsburgh will be closed between Fourth Avenue and Forbes
Avenue and that's gonna be from ten thirty am until
two this after so.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Just be aware of that.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
All right.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
We didn't get to the Quentin Tarantino list yesterday, but
he's clearly divided film buffs with his recent brutal criticisms
of Paul Dano, who is the star of There Will
Be Blood.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
This co star with Daniel day Lewis.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Yes, yes, but a very critical role in the movie.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
So here is the deal.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
If you missed it recently on the Brett Easton Ellis podcast,
Tarantino tore apart Dano's work, specifically mentioning this role that
he plays in there will be blood, and he was
kind of spitting fire. He was saying it was nearly
a perfect film, but screwed it up.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Put there will be blood in his top ten? Correct,
all right? What number? Oh, I don't have that front
of me.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
What do you think I am? I think you're prepared.
I think he had it a number five and he
said the only thing from making it number one is
Paul Dano, which.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Is insane to me because I you know, whatever tangent
Paul Dano has to be hateable in the movie or
the movie doesn't work. But Daniel Plainview is also hatable
in the movie. I don't think you're supposed to love.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Movie.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
But needless to say, fans of the movie and Paul
Dano specifically kind of went after Quentin Tarantino on this.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
But Dylan Frasier, who is the little kid in the movie,
the deaf Kid.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Yeah, I think I'm trying to remember what his name
is of the movie.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
But he's h View, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
My son?
Speaker 4 (12:43):
H W. He actually isn't in movies anymore. He only
did that movie as a kid. And then I think
he actually does work in oil now.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Because Paul Dano was so bad he couldn't.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Keep back the fandom anymore. And he was like that said,
I'm done with it. He said that the film is perfect,
it's a work of art, and it is because everyone
in the film is perfectly cast.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
I totally agree.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
I don't know what Quinton is on something right now,
Like he's going through some weirdness. He is dropping bombs
on lots of people, and it's not just Paul Danel.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
He felt the need.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
First of all, Brett Easton Allis is like the not
the coolest guy in the world. He's kind of a douchebag.
I mean, you know, he's written some great things, but
also Canada douche and so Quentin leaned into his douchiness there.
I thought, right, you know, he's well known to annoy
the piss out of a lot of people. Quinton is
talented as he is, and I love him. I think
(13:40):
he's a really great filmmaker. There are lots of people
in the nerdy film world who do not think that,
like people that he revers like good Art and Scorsese
like that, Like they don't think that fondly of him,
And a lot of what they think he did is
just pestiche and that he only likes like a lot
(14:03):
of quirky, weird stuff. And then his real talent is
just rehashing ideas that have already happened and presenting them
in a different manner. I think that that is how
a lot of art is done anyways, so that I
don't have a problem with his process. Like none of
his top movies are foreign films. People were pointing that out, like, oh,
(14:24):
you're a real cinophile, you know, And you have Turner
and Hooch at number seven.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You know he has like Toy Story is number two.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
I think right, because there will be Blood is number
five on his list, so you're right, it is.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
It is in the top. But Toy Story three, now
he was on Bill Maher's number two.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
He's on Bill Maher's podcast arguing why Toy Story three
was the greatest one of his all time favorite movies.
And I get it, I do get it. It's just
a weird one to have landed on. Some of those
movies are crafted perfectly. I mean, tell me you didn't
watch Up and think this is a perfect movie. It's
an animated movie, and it's absolutely perfect start to.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Finish, maybe cry in the first ninety seconds.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Exactly by the way, you know they're doing a live
action version of that. God No, yes, who's gonna start
as the old man? Harrison Ford be pretty good?
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Right.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Anyways, back to Quentin, I'm not exactly sure what's going
on with him other than cocaine. That's how I always
just think it's cocaine when he starts yapping.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Like this, that guy is is just on drugs. Again, Well,
he thinks.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Austin Butler would have been a better role or better
person to play the role than Paul Dano, which doesn't
even make sense from an age perspective.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
You say he would have been like eleven. Yeah, so
he couldn't even have done it.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
But also Austin Butler doesn't read that to me at all.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
No, I know, I'm telling you, I think Quentin's on
a bender.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
I think I mean, you know, Tarantina loves casting himself
in movies, and he always casts himself as like.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
The weird, nerdy guy or weak guy.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
Paul Dano fills that space like the weird, skinny, oddly
shaped head guy, and I think Tarantina is like, that's
my that's my whole thing. That's why I make movies
to cast myself as someone drinking tequila from Selma Hayek's foot.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Yes, exactly. Don't you think Paul Dano was great as
the Riddler though? And wasn't he great as Brian Wilson
in Love and Mercy when he played young Brian Wilson.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yes, amazing. I didn't see that, but that's that's high
on my list especially, Yeah, tell me, tell me more.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
It seems like, uh yeah, but he's got a laine
and I think it over overlaps a little bit with
Quentin Tarantino.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
And his his girlfriend is also a delightful actress or
his wife or whatever.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
She's in a Zoe, whatever the hell her name is.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I always thought that, like, oh, that's the perfect artsy
fartsy acting couple. I thought they were like the young
version of Lee of Schreiber.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
And who's the Australian actress who's married to who's in
David Lynch movies? I know, yes.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
Why can't we think of her name right now?
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Because our brain's not working and at six.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
Twenty am, ummm give me two seconds, because I know
he is no our name.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Point point B.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
I think that dude's great, and it only served like
yesterday to be a day that was like for Paul Dano.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
He wakes up and.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
He's like, what the I'm catching straight from Quentin Tarantina?
What he But then he just felt the love all
day long.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
From everybody, you know, So that's pretty cool. I'm gonna
have a seizure federal. Her name terror reads.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Oh wait, actually we know we don't have time. I'm
gonna save this for next hour. If that is okay,
Let's wrap up with just the weather here, and that
is breezy and cold today with a high of thirty four.
You're gonna have a little bit of niffles, but we
will see some sunshine today.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
She's best friends with Nicole Kidman. No, but I don't
know that they're together. I'm searching it. They're not together anymore.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
That's why I can't find it. Wait, I got an
idea ex girlfriend.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Michael be nail. Damn it, Michael, being with your sports
here in this a little bit. I want to die.
I know it's the worst feeling.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Well, the problem is is I never know if it's
just because our brains are like we're just super tired.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Well, you and I'll do this all the time. We're
always like, maybe we're dying.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
Yes, this is the first step of dementia. How much
creatine do I need to take to get rid of this?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
I've been taking those Paul Stammett's like Lions main.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Supplement, Stanley Lions Man's Yeah, Paul Staney Lion Maine, Yeah,
Polar Stanley Lion's mane.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
You want Harold your chest, you die it.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
This is gonna do it. Michael, give you the low
down on Steelers getting set for the Ravens. Hey man,
this is a matchup that will determine first place, much
like that Bears Packers.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Game I was talking about.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
The division is on the line between two totally mediocre
six and six teams at one o'clock. But throw out
the records when these two teams play each other, and
you're probably gonna want to because it doesn't look that
great right now. M and T Banks Stadium, one o'clock kickoff,
Rob King, Max Stark's Missy Matthew, Steelers Ravens right here on.
Speaker 8 (19:13):
DV Weekdays on DV with Michelle and Chad Tyson. The
songs just keep coming with Workforce Commercial Free Hours at
ten and three on one oh two point five DV
e from the Bridgeville.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Well with your sports here on the DV morning show Mike.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Sports sub brought to you by Bridgeville Plats. Aaron Rodgers
was exclusively in the shotgun last Sunday against Buffalo and
it didn't go well. That might not be the case
this Sunday in Baltimore, though. Rogers wasn't offering any guarantees
after not practicing yesterday, and.
Speaker 9 (19:48):
We'll see what happens. I'd love to be able to
be under center. That'll probably be later in the week decision.
But yeah, I didn't come out of the game any
worse for wear, So the healing process. Healing process has continued,
and we'll see what happens as far as the type
of cast I use come come Sunday.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
Yeah, Rogers following up basically what Mike Tomlin had said
on Tuesday. Well, we'd like him not to bet a
shotgun all the time, but you know.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
He said it's gonna be like less of a conversation,
right yeah, which is not specific.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Nobody's coming out saying he's going to actually be able
to play quarterback the way you need to play quarterback
in the biggest game of the year.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Yes, so there's that.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
Rogers also addressed the steelers lack of a downfield passing
game yesterday in detail.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Well, I mean a lot of things go into that.
You know, coverages they've been, they've been. Most teams are
playing double DK, so it's on the rest of the
guys to get open. We've been going a lot of
big personnel stuff. You know, I'm not sure what the
plan will be this week as far as different personnel groupings,
but it comes down to having a plan with your
(20:59):
release at lance scrimmage, run the right route and then
me make it throw and sometimes been a combination of
any of those three. That's it's caused it to go wrong.
But you know, I think i'd be looking to take overall.
There hasn't been a ton of opportunities in general take
those shots. And until we run the ball consistently every
single week and get some more single high you know
we're gonna win in unconventional ways.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Follow probably should have been what are those unconventional ways?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Well, I can't tell you that because it'd be giving
away our unconventionalism.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Or he could have said, well, as soon as we
actually win, then I'll let you know, or do.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
The Tomlin one, which I now hate the most of
any Tomlin answer, which is keep watching.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
H yeah, no, we don't want to. That's the point
that sounded cool the first time keep watching.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, it was kind of a I'll be back where
you know some sort of batman is the very first time.
The second time, keep watching, it's like, you know, Rocky
all bloody, keep watching.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
You can't anymore, man, it's over.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Do you hate keep watching more than we continue to
write that story or some.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
Of the more every day I write the book tom
but heard that on the way to the press conference.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Chapter one, Colone ishmail. He just starts doing Moby Dick.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
It was the worst of offense. It was the worst
of defense. It's a different book, but yeah, I alone
survived to tell the all things consider, last Sunday's lost
to Buffalo probably the worst game of the season, right, yeah,
relative to Snake's caliber opponents and complete breakdowns back on
(22:41):
both sides.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Of the ball.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
But believe it or not, all is not yet lost.
Far from it. In fact, given the opportunity awaiting the
Steelers in Baltimore.
Speaker 9 (22:51):
Were six and six were type for the division, leave
we got a chance to keep controlling our own destiny
with a win this weekend. So you know, every year
different you you kind of wait and hope for that
run that you can go on to kind of get
to be playing the right way come December. But I
think from a from a foundational standpoint, to be playing
(23:11):
meaningful games in December, it's especially we need to embrace that.
You know, play on the road is tough. It's a
great environment over there. They've won, uh, well, they won
five out of six. I think like that, so they've
obviously been playing playing better last stretch and anything can
happen in the division game, and this is for control
(23:33):
of the division in the short term. Obviously there's four
more games after this, but this is a big one
for us.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
It is a big one. You win this one. Yeah,
you beat Cleveland and you win against the Ravens the
last game of the season, and you are Division champs,
right they they came to anything about it.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
You get in, whether anybody likes it or not. You're
in the postseason.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
Although I should say maybe you know, the Bengals see
a rat if they could run the table and also
end up nine to eight.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Yeah, but what what's the game at hand.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
On Well, they split with Pittsburgh, so that would require
a little more free division record, conference record.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
They beat the Ravens and if they went out, they
will have beaten the Ravens twice.
Speaker 5 (24:19):
Yeah, as would Pittsburgh. Yeah, the five, So it could
get a little convolu But first things first, try to
try to look like a first place team on Sunday
in Baldimore. You know, I don't think Rogers is a
guy who parents with the coaches tell them a lot
of guys are no. And it was funny just walking
around the locker room talking at different guys yesterday. The
(24:40):
two obvious themes were what he addressed there. Did the opportunity,
Hey this is you know, you're playing for first place.
Everything's still in front of you, a great chance here.
And physicality got to be more physical.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Well they certainly weren't that.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Yeah, you know, and I thought more about what you
were seeing when you go back and watch just some.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Footage of the James Cook.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Runs where he's just ripping off fifteen eighteen, the same
play every time. It's clear TJ's crashing down on those those.
Speaker 5 (25:09):
Are all starting inside and he's bouncing.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Them and there is supposed to be somebody there.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
And that's somebody on the edge, and it looks like
what safety or a corner.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
It looks like it's supposed to be Joey Porter Jr.
A lot of times. So as much as we were
giving him credit for the three tackles he made, he
was supposed to make fifteen of those. Now, I don't know,
But but is it wise to put him there in
that position?
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Well, I mean, I know they count on their cornerbacks
for physicality and run support.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
He's become a better tackler, but that has always been
their thing.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
Yes. Is Joey Porter on Cook an appropriate matchup?
Speaker 3 (25:48):
No, apparently.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
But the thing is when he faced him one on one,
he won those battles.
Speaker 5 (25:55):
It's just he wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
He wasn't in position.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
He was following inside and to do too much getting
out of his gap, and that herein lies the problem.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
I just think that the compulsion to be a part
of the play is so great for these guys that
staying home and staying disciplined is like a damn near
impossible task for a lot of nflers.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
It's like, well, particularly when you don't have harmon in
there and you don't trust clearly the guys that are
playing inside.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Remember in the Departed, when that guy's in the car
and he's like, hey, he's on the roof. They're going
to get him, and Matt Damon's like, just stay put,
just stay there a trooper, and he do not engage.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
He's like, I'm going.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Like, that's it.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
That's what Joey Porter Junior, that's it, right.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
And they have departed from couple of.
Speaker 6 (26:45):
Exactly that guy dies in the movie. I think by
the way he as instantly shot. Yeah in the shootout. Yeah,
he gets shot.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
The message here he gets shot like almost right away
in the shootout of the same.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Next guy out of his gap. That's it.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm not saying it, just suggesting him on the way
for you, missy. Matthews will join us. We used to
do the pick six. Now it's three and out.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
And he's like, you know, Kate, believe you came up
with that. But that perfectly encapsulizes what is going wrong. Right,
you just stay in the car, right, just stay there.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
But you can't.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Big cat guy, Junker and a whole lot more. Abby's
got your news at the top of the hour.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Driver list, cabs are coming to Pittsburgh, and we'll talk
Instagram etiquette like should you airbrush someone's face without their permission?
Speaker 2 (27:34):
If you missed it yesterday, we had our buddy Tad
Whistle do the Pittsburgh Steelers alphabet for you and we'll
play that for you next TV.
Speaker 5 (27:43):
Bigger than Pittsburgh.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
This is bigger. I'm telling you this is bigger.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Streaming twenty four seven worldwide at dve dot com and
through the free iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
Is this season making show.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
I was telling you earlier how the Pittsburgh City Paper
is asking its readers to submit the Pittsburgh alphabet AZ
words that describe Pittsburgh. So I asked Tad to do
the same thing with this version of the Pittsburgh Steelers,
the twenty twenty five Pittsburgh Steelers and eighth through Z.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Tad Whistle take it away.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
A for adjustments adjustments, yes, as in Tomlin, don't make
no adjustments. B Randy for booing renegade?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
Was it a bunch of drunk people looking for something
anything to scream about or an indication of the disconnect
between the powers that be and the Hoypelois.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Seemed like this might have been to let the meat
cake moment, let them listen to sticks. I'm not proud
of this one. C is for the C word hold
on now, for you know which I find myself screaming
a dozen or so times during these games, making the
(29:07):
Steelers at least partly responsible for my forthcoming d divorce.
He is for the episode after the Chargers game when
I almost got three zero two to the Hangar sports
bar in Coreopolis Peaks and Valleys, almost ast f Friarmouth.
(29:32):
I guess I can barely say his name right. It
felt like it took two years to learn how to
say that guy's name. Where are they hiding this dude.
It's not like John Whu Smith's getting his touches. G
for good dudes, Good dudes, Jalen Warren, good dude, Herbic,
a couple others. Blow it all up, and let's start
(29:55):
over with these guys. We'll get a little place, we'll
have a cow. I'm down on the flat. We're gonna
have a field of our fouth for all the good dudes,
and I will tend to them.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Farmer tad H is for hell, say the line, Coach,
we want here in December.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Unleash Hell. We're in Hell. Get us out of Hell.
My last hell. Please eyes for irritable bow syndrome.
Speaker 6 (30:34):
After stress eating a pound of cashews while James Cook
and the Bills ran butt naked the same corny play
sixty times on the Steelers. Jay is for one Thornhill,
an otherwise forgettable dude who will live forever and steal
her infamy for a stupid thing that he said that
this defense had a chance to be the best of
(30:55):
all time. It is the Howard Dean scream of your
twenty five Pittsburgh Steelers. K is for Cam getting knead
in the stomach by Josh Allen. You're the d lineman,
he's the quarterback. You're supposed to knee him, and not
(31:17):
in the stomach, in the groin. That's how backwards things
are right now. Elis for long December, except there's no
reason to believe that maybe this year will be better
than the last. Emma's for Mason, as in Mason ain't
pulling their asses out of the fire this Christmas, and
(31:40):
for nameless Gray Faces, a once fun tomlinism that right now,
like all Tomlinism just annoys you. Yeah, oh, offensive line,
Why does our offensive line always suck?
Speaker 3 (31:53):
P Pat Meyer? Pat Myers should be fired because the
offensive min so.
Speaker 6 (32:03):
Speaking of underperforming Pats, Humus for Queen, we already gotta
watch you on Sunday. Seeing you beef with former stealer
backups on Twitter is a new level of aggravation. We
simply do not need log off my man, our Ravens
week oof used to bring such joy. Feels like this
(32:24):
one snuck up on me, but really I was just
dreading it. S is for scheme. The word use so
much this season it no longer means anything at all.
Out schemed, over schemed, under schemed, schematics, schemantics, steely mcscheme,
(32:46):
Paul schemes.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Everybody haven't fun, We haven't fun.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Out down.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
To put a bow on the letter s.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Let's say so long and cyonara to scapegoat Tea Terra
whose exit interview is gonna be a lot like Joe
Peshi's in Goodfellas. It was revenge for Joey Flatco and
a lot of other things. You ugly, the wins, the losses,
(33:18):
the season of the for victories. Look at the rest
of this schedule, show me the victories.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Yeah, not a lot.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
W for wide receiver two, which the Steelers finally solve
with Adam Feelin. Hey, if you're pissed off about them
signing a thirty five year old wide out in what
seems to be his final NFL season, imagine how Adam
Thielen feels. While we're talking about reed treads. Why not
kick the tires on x Xavier Grimble. Maybe he's the
(33:52):
missing piece of this Arthur Smith offense. One more tight
end really opened the playbook. Why for YOI used to
be a happy exclamation, It's time to start using YOI
in a sad, somber way. YOI double and finally zee
(34:18):
her zillow doom scroll. I use it as a calming technique.
Steelers in the middle of another second half collapse. I
wonder how many bedrooms I could get if I moved
to eighty four.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
There you go, the Pittsburgh Steelers alphabet.
Speaker 5 (34:37):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by iron Workers Local Union number three.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
They don't go to the office. They build it at
Steelers Pro Shop.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Get it direct from the team at Shop dot Steelers
dot Com.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
Here's Tom Opperman.
Speaker 10 (34:51):
The Steelers had it to their wide receiver room this
week when they signed thirty five year old Adam Feeling
to the team after he was let go by the
Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Keelan appeared in eleven games this year for.
Speaker 10 (34:59):
The Vikings, but I'm caught eight passes for sixty nine
yards and wanted to seek out a bigger role on
a different team in what will be his.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Final NFL season.
Speaker 10 (35:06):
Although his better days are certainly behind him, Feeland has
an impressive resume and tons of experience to draw from
the twelve year Vets spend ten of those seasons in Minnesota,
highlighted by his second team All Pro performance season in
twenty seventeen. Feeland eclipsed one thousand yards receiving during a
season three times over his career, twice with the Vikings
and once more with the Panthers in twenty twenty three.
The Minnesota native has amassed eighty three hundred and eighty
(35:28):
yards and sixty four touchdowns over his career. At thirty
five years old, Land surely isn't going to be the
Steelers answer to the offense, as woes in the passing
game or even the number two wide receiver they have
so long sought after, but he still could be an
upgrade to what they currently are working with. Last Sunday
in Buffalo, no receiver other than DK Metcalf caught even
a single pass, and receivers not named Metcalf have just
(35:49):
five combined catches over the Steelers' previous two games.
Speaker 5 (35:53):
What Adam THELN.
Speaker 10 (35:53):
Brings to the table these days may not be much,
but it certainly could still be useful in the Pittsburgh
offense so desperate for any in the passing game.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I'm Tom Opferman with the Steelers Report.
Speaker 7 (36:06):
You see the
W d V Pittsburgh an iHeart radio station, guaranteed human.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I do think it would be good to do the
Pittsburgh Nativity scene where you have Myron Cope as a
baby in there. Yeah, and the wise man, well, rixy
Back would be Franco's catching the baby of course, francoing
the baby.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Franco is the cradle, Oh my god, you know pick
all your favorite.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Mister Rogers would be one of the wise men too,
certainly the wisest Yeah, Sally Wigan would be the mother
Mary oh oh oh oh baby jesus ow I don't
know who the father is.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Rixy rixy Back brings MRR and tells you all about it.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
They make this in Beaver County. I'm telling you, this
is something that should happen. Rick, make it happen. Market
these well, ro you know, so there's somebody out there
that Larry Richard will probably have this marketed in a
week or so.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Sorry. It's the Son of God and.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Joseph Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning Show.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Oh you could talk.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
It would be awesome.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
We should do it. It is the DV Morning Show
and a packed past today once again, our buddy Tad
whistle hanging out with us and Morning Ted, Good morning friends.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
In your ears. I'm sorry, I'm still practicing.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
For the next time I go to Nico's and do
karaoke and I pick in your eyes. We were just
sitting listening to that Peter Gabriel song as we were
getting ready to do Jump into the Morning Show here,
and it's a good karaoke song because you can get
like four or five people in on that one, just
to do the whole end parties.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Hi, I feel like we can all go together.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yeah, I mean the DJ will as we get to
that part, he will start to fade it out and
then you'd have to be like, no, no, no, no, bring
it back up.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
We're doing it.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
We're doing the whole thing. We're doing it, dude, in
your rides. Okay, all right, here you go. Uh packed past.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
As I said, Missy Matthews will be joining us Big
Cat from Barstool Sports.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Part of my take.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I'll tell you what, his Bears have a big game
this weekend against the Packers and this is the real test. Uh,
it's a game of the weekend. Really Bears Packers with
the NFC basically the number one NFC ranking, on the line,
and certainly their division lead for the NFC North is
in the UH. In the questioning on that one, I
(02:52):
still don't think the Bears are as good as their record.
I think the Packers are actually getting better. But we'll
talk to Big Kat about that. Plus college football, they're
gonna end up telling you, I think it's this weekend.
Is in selection Saturday this weekend. Don't they give me
the the lowdown of who makes it into the playoffs?
Guy Junker also hitting us up here nine today and
Mike with the latest.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
You know.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Aaron Rodgers talking with the media yesterday, he.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Was asked about his comments postgame where he said, you know,
he was asked, hey, in a perfect world, what does
it look like?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
What do you want from your receivers?
Speaker 7 (03:24):
And he was like, oh, you know, show up to meetings,
bring me cake, and also, you know, check to the
right route when I checked to it, you know, don't
run the wrong one.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
So people assumed what he was saying there was that
there were receivers who were not going to the film study,
and he clarified yesterday and said, no, no, it's on.
I mean he said that was just my ideal scenario.
These are the things we have to do. But then
he cryptically said, I'm not going to talk about any
of the extracurricular stuff, So I don't know what that means.
(03:59):
And I think that's the thing Mike was hitting on,
which is that these extra film studies he has at
his house where he gets people to come over there,
you know, and bring him cake and bring them cake
for his birthday. I guarantee he was.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
A Giant Eagle cake had to be a Giantinggle cake.
I hope. I want it to be.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Yeah, I feel like he has dietary restrictions though that
would make that impossible.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Well, you know my feelings about the Giant Eagle Bakery.
I think it's as good as any bakery in town.
The quality control is insane. You can go, you know,
when I go to the Giant Eagle and erie, that
bakery is amazing.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
It's crazy. I only go to Giant Eagle for Edie's birthdays.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yeah, and they have knockoff all the tortu cakes there.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
That are pretty even good.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Just that fuch.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I mean there's no real you know, replacing the Prantles
almond tort cake.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
I mean that is nationally renowned.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
The gold standard, but the one that Giant Eagle's pretty
damn good. And they do cupcakes all men torqu cupcakes,
which are also pretty megan.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Anyways, I'm not sure if that's what Rogers had the
other night, but.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I do think he wants people going to his house
for films to and he's mad because people aren't showing up,
which reminds me there.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Was this priest in high school.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I went to you know, Uber Catholic school, as you know,
and he started a club called a Teenage.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Action Club, all right, and yeah, some flags, a couple
of flags, tack tac a network you.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yeah, you were kind of required to be in tact
because you were told that this was necessary for your
call of transcripts. And there are a lot of reluctant people,
myself among them. I'm like, all right, I'll join. I'm
not doing anything, all right. Well, they always had a
retreat where they would go camping, this cabin thing. I
(05:44):
never went on that. I'm like, eh, Bridge too far
from me, dude, I'm not doing that. My brother went
and he was like, oh, it's weird. He's like it
was really weird. This the priest who's running the thing
was like really mad because he's like, hey, I've got
you know, there's a movie room and all the kids
are watching the movie at night and they're like hanging
(06:05):
out blah blah blah, and he's like, hey, well, you know,
I got a poker game over here. How come nobody
wants to come up play in the poker room, you know,
And everyone's.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Like, that's a it's a smaller room and you.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Know, it's dark in there. It's weird, and we don't
want to go in there like movies. And he was
mad because nobody would come in and he was like,
come on, we're gonna we'll smoke cigars and we'll you know,
and he's like just got his like the wife beater
tea on type thing, you know, like.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
We'll be men.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
And everyone's like, yeah, we don't want to do that,
and so nobody would go and do it, and he
would throw the cards down and get all mad. I
wonder if that's what's going on with there, and if
he's just mad because people aren't coming over to his party.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
Oh, he could be that kind of going out. Also,
he's like a little self conscious and forty two years old. Yeah,
you guys, don't want to hang out with old Aaron anymore.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Why the heck not? We got fun stuff over here.
Were there's originals.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
As many as you want, you guys like back Cammon,
I learned to play abroad, Jim Rummy.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Is no one gonna come play Jin Rummy with your quarterback?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
No, And I think they responded and all showed up
for his birthday party. But prior to that, I don't know,
maybe that was the real issue.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
So you guys do know where I live. He's all mad, passive,
aggressive the whole time they're there. If possible, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I do know that he's got this look on his
face right now, like I shouldn't have done this.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Doesn't he doesn't.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
It kind of look like he's kind of like, yeah,
this was a mistake. I really should have, you know,
should have kept himself in that Schrodinger's quarterback box that
Will Howard is in right now.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
He's both not good enough and he is the answer
to all the problems. Yeah, the mystery of Aaron Rodgers
being you know, the answer is it's we solved it.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
We figured it out exactly and now we know.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
And I still think it can be a capable quarterback,
and I think it can be better than what we
had last year, honestly, if he got some protection. But
I think it's you know, toothpastes out of the tube there.
He seems to be a little skittish. He's running around
like crazy in the pocket right now, trying to get
rid of the ball and trying to do too much
at the same time, which is makes.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
For an odd alchemy, and we need him.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
To calm down, calm down. I wish we could have
got him in for that Bears game. I think missing
that Bears game really screwed him up because that that's
always been his elixir. That would have given him life
to get to play sold on soldier field against the Bears. Traditionally,
that has been what is pumped him back up.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 6 (08:44):
Screaming at someone's Graham in the in the stands, Yeah, that.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Could have breathed new life into him. The other I
own you, Nana, Are you okay? Discount double check interface?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
You know.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
The other thing too, is this rich thing is not
going away. I mean this is not going away until
the season is over. Whenever that is, It's it's complet
It's just another thing.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
You know, to add on to being forty two.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
And not having twenty five year olds want to come
to your house to hang out.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
It's got at this is this is you know, we
don't know that that's the case. That is my supposition
here that what he was actually complaining about is nobody
wants to come play boggle.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
And then you do go over there and it's like
the uh, the guy they rip off at the beginning
of the third act of Boogie Nights.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, come on, Miles, Teller is walking behind him, just
throwing whippets down on the ground.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Anyways, Abby's got a news update for you. What's going on?
Speaker 4 (09:52):
And there's this hours brought to you by your neighborhood
Ford Store. Breezy and cold today with a high of
thirty four, but later on we are going to see
a little bit of sunshine. It is a very cold
day to be thinking about things like soccer. But there's
a bit of a celebration down town today for it,
and so I want to tell you about it because
it also might cause you a little bit of traffic
woes late afternoon. The Pittsburgh River Hounds are hosting a
(10:15):
championship rally today to celebrate their first ever USL Championship title.
So the Riverhounds defeated FS Tulsa in a penalty shootout
last month to win the championship title. So Bob Popienni
is going to be m seeing this afternoon. It's gonna
be with Mayor ed Gainey. Sarah am In She will
(10:43):
be in attendance as well. Fans will have the chance
to meet and celebrate with coaches and players to take
pictures with the USL Championship Cup. But Grant Street in
downtown Pittsburgh will be closed between Fourth Avenue and Forbes
Avenue and that's gonna be from ten thirty am until
two this after so.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Just be aware of that.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
All right.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
We didn't get to the Quentin Tarantino list yesterday, but
he's clearly divided film buffs with his recent brutal criticisms
of Paul Dano, who is the star of There Will
Be Blood.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
This co star with Daniel day Lewis.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Yes, yes, but a very critical role in the movie.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
So here is the deal.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
If you missed it recently on the Brett Easton Ellis podcast,
Tarantino tore apart Dano's work, specifically mentioning this role that
he plays in there will be blood, and he was
kind of spitting fire. He was saying it was nearly
a perfect film, but screwed it up.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Put there will be blood in his top ten? Correct,
all right? What number? Oh, I don't have that front
of me.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
What do you think I am? I think you're prepared.
I think he had it a number five and he
said the only thing from making it number one is
Paul Dano, which.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Is insane to me because I you know, whatever tangent
Paul Dano has to be hateable in the movie or
the movie doesn't work. But Daniel Plainview is also hatable
in the movie. I don't think you're supposed to love.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Movie.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
But needless to say, fans of the movie and Paul
Dano specifically kind of went after Quentin Tarantino on this.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
But Dylan Frasier, who is the little kid in the movie,
the deaf Kid.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Yeah, I think I'm trying to remember what his name
is of the movie.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
But he's h View, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
My son?
Speaker 4 (12:43):
H W. He actually isn't in movies anymore. He only
did that movie as a kid. And then I think
he actually does work in oil now.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Because Paul Dano was so bad he couldn't.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Keep back the fandom anymore. And he was like that said,
I'm done with it. He said that the film is perfect,
it's a work of art, and it is because everyone
in the film is perfectly cast.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
I totally agree.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
I don't know what Quinton is on something right now,
Like he's going through some weirdness. He is dropping bombs
on lots of people, and it's not just Paul Danel.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
He felt the need.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
First of all, Brett Easton Allis is like the not
the coolest guy in the world. He's kind of a douchebag.
I mean, you know, he's written some great things, but
also Canada douche and so Quentin leaned into his douchiness there.
I thought, right, you know, he's well known to annoy
the piss out of a lot of people. Quinton is
talented as he is, and I love him. I think
(13:40):
he's a really great filmmaker. There are lots of people
in the nerdy film world who do not think that,
like people that he revers like good Art and Scorsese
like that, Like they don't think that fondly of him,
And a lot of what they think he did is
just pestiche and that he only likes like a lot
(14:03):
of quirky, weird stuff. And then his real talent is
just rehashing ideas that have already happened and presenting them
in a different manner. I think that that is how
a lot of art is done anyways, so that I
don't have a problem with his process. Like none of
his top movies are foreign films. People were pointing that out, like, oh,
(14:24):
you're a real cinophile, you know, And you have Turner
and Hooch at number seven.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You know he has like Toy Story is number two.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
I think right, because there will be Blood is number
five on his list, so you're right, it is.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
It is in the top. But Toy Story three, now
he was on Bill Maher's number two.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
He's on Bill Maher's podcast arguing why Toy Story three
was the greatest one of his all time favorite movies.
And I get it, I do get it. It's just
a weird one to have landed on. Some of those
movies are crafted perfectly. I mean, tell me you didn't
watch Up and think this is a perfect movie. It's
an animated movie, and it's absolutely perfect start to.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Finish, maybe cry in the first ninety seconds.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Exactly by the way, you know they're doing a live
action version of that. God No, yes, who's gonna start
as the old man? Harrison Ford be pretty good?
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Right.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Anyways, back to Quentin, I'm not exactly sure what's going
on with him other than cocaine. That's how I always
just think it's cocaine when he starts yapping.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Like this, that guy is is just on drugs. Again, Well,
he thinks.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Austin Butler would have been a better role or better
person to play the role than Paul Dano, which doesn't
even make sense from an age perspective.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
You say he would have been like eleven. Yeah, so
he couldn't even have done it.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
But also Austin Butler doesn't read that to me at all.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
No, I know, I'm telling you, I think Quentin's on
a bender.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
I think I mean, you know, Tarantina loves casting himself
in movies, and he always casts himself as like.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
The weird, nerdy guy or weak guy.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
Paul Dano fills that space like the weird, skinny, oddly
shaped head guy, and I think Tarantina is like, that's
my that's my whole thing. That's why I make movies
to cast myself as someone drinking tequila from Selma Hayek's foot.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Yes, exactly. Don't you think Paul Dano was great as
the Riddler though? And wasn't he great as Brian Wilson
in Love and Mercy when he played young Brian Wilson.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yes, amazing. I didn't see that, but that's that's high
on my list especially, Yeah, tell me, tell me more.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
It seems like, uh yeah, but he's got a laine
and I think it over overlaps a little bit with
Quentin Tarantino.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
And his his girlfriend is also a delightful actress or
his wife or whatever.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
She's in a Zoe, whatever the hell her name is.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I always thought that, like, oh, that's the perfect artsy
fartsy acting couple. I thought they were like the young
version of Lee of Schreiber.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
And who's the Australian actress who's married to who's in
David Lynch movies? I know, yes.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
Why can't we think of her name right now?
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Because our brain's not working and at six.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
Twenty am, ummm give me two seconds, because I know
he is no our name.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Point point B.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
I think that dude's great, and it only served like
yesterday to be a day that was like for Paul Dano.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
He wakes up and.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
He's like, what the I'm catching straight from Quentin Tarantina?
What he But then he just felt the love all
day long.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
From everybody, you know, So that's pretty cool. I'm gonna
have a seizure federal. Her name terror reads.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Oh wait, actually we know we don't have time. I'm
gonna save this for next hour. If that is okay,
Let's wrap up with just the weather here, and that
is breezy and cold today with a high of thirty four.
You're gonna have a little bit of niffles, but we
will see some sunshine today.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
She's best friends with Nicole Kidman. No, but I don't
know that they're together. I'm searching it. They're not together anymore.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
That's why I can't find it. Wait, I got an
idea ex girlfriend.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Michael be nail. Damn it, Michael, being with your sports
here in this a little bit. I want to die.
I know it's the worst feeling.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Well, the problem is is I never know if it's
just because our brains are like we're just super tired.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Well, you and I'll do this all the time. We're
always like, maybe we're dying.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
Yes, this is the first step of dementia. How much
creatine do I need to take to get rid of this?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
I've been taking those Paul Stammett's like Lions main.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Supplement, Stanley Lions Man's Yeah, Paul Staney Lion Maine, Yeah,
Polar Stanley Lion's mane.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
You want Harold your chest, you die it.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
This is gonna do it. Michael, give you the low
down on Steelers getting set for the Ravens. Hey man,
this is a matchup that will determine first place, much
like that Bears Packers.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Game I was talking about.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
The division is on the line between two totally mediocre
six and six teams at one o'clock. But throw out
the records when these two teams play each other, and
you're probably gonna want to because it doesn't look that
great right now. M and T Banks Stadium, one o'clock kickoff,
Rob King, Max Stark's Missy Matthew, Steelers Ravens right here on.
Speaker 8 (19:13):
DV Weekdays on DV with Michelle and Chad Tyson. The
songs just keep coming with Workforce Commercial Free Hours at
ten and three on one oh two point five DV
e from the Bridgeville.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Well with your sports here on the DV morning show Mike.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Sports sub brought to you by Bridgeville Plats. Aaron Rodgers
was exclusively in the shotgun last Sunday against Buffalo and
it didn't go well. That might not be the case
this Sunday in Baltimore, though. Rogers wasn't offering any guarantees
after not practicing yesterday, and.
Speaker 9 (19:48):
We'll see what happens. I'd love to be able to
be under center. That'll probably be later in the week decision.
But yeah, I didn't come out of the game any
worse for wear, So the healing process. Healing process has continued,
and we'll see what happens as far as the type
of cast I use come come Sunday.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
Yeah, Rogers following up basically what Mike Tomlin had said
on Tuesday. Well, we'd like him not to bet a
shotgun all the time, but you know.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
He said it's gonna be like less of a conversation,
right yeah, which is not specific.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Nobody's coming out saying he's going to actually be able
to play quarterback the way you need to play quarterback
in the biggest game of the year.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Yes, so there's that.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
Rogers also addressed the steelers lack of a downfield passing
game yesterday in detail.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Well, I mean a lot of things go into that.
You know, coverages they've been, they've been. Most teams are
playing double DK, so it's on the rest of the
guys to get open. We've been going a lot of
big personnel stuff. You know, I'm not sure what the
plan will be this week as far as different personnel groupings,
but it comes down to having a plan with your
(20:59):
release at lance scrimmage, run the right route and then
me make it throw and sometimes been a combination of
any of those three. That's it's caused it to go wrong.
But you know, I think i'd be looking to take overall.
There hasn't been a ton of opportunities in general take
those shots. And until we run the ball consistently every
single week and get some more single high you know
we're gonna win in unconventional ways.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Follow probably should have been what are those unconventional ways?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Well, I can't tell you that because it'd be giving
away our unconventionalism.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Or he could have said, well, as soon as we
actually win, then I'll let you know, or do.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
The Tomlin one, which I now hate the most of
any Tomlin answer, which is keep watching.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
H yeah, no, we don't want to. That's the point
that sounded cool the first time keep watching.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, it was kind of a I'll be back where
you know some sort of batman is the very first time.
The second time, keep watching, it's like, you know, Rocky
all bloody, keep watching.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
You can't anymore, man, it's over.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Do you hate keep watching more than we continue to
write that story or some.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
Of the more every day I write the book tom
but heard that on the way to the press conference.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Chapter one, Colone ishmail. He just starts doing Moby Dick.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
It was the worst of offense. It was the worst
of defense. It's a different book, but yeah, I alone
survived to tell the all things consider, last Sunday's lost
to Buffalo probably the worst game of the season, right, yeah,
relative to Snake's caliber opponents and complete breakdowns back on
(22:41):
both sides.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Of the ball.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
But believe it or not, all is not yet lost.
Far from it. In fact, given the opportunity awaiting the
Steelers in Baltimore.
Speaker 9 (22:51):
Were six and six were type for the division, leave
we got a chance to keep controlling our own destiny
with a win this weekend. So you know, every year
different you you kind of wait and hope for that
run that you can go on to kind of get
to be playing the right way come December. But I
think from a from a foundational standpoint, to be playing
(23:11):
meaningful games in December, it's especially we need to embrace that.
You know, play on the road is tough. It's a
great environment over there. They've won, uh, well, they won
five out of six. I think like that, so they've
obviously been playing playing better last stretch and anything can
happen in the division game, and this is for control
(23:33):
of the division in the short term. Obviously there's four
more games after this, but this is a big one
for us.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
It is a big one. You win this one. Yeah,
you beat Cleveland and you win against the Ravens the
last game of the season, and you are Division champs,
right they they came to anything about it.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
You get in, whether anybody likes it or not. You're
in the postseason.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
Although I should say maybe you know, the Bengals see
a rat if they could run the table and also
end up nine to eight.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Yeah, but what what's the game at hand.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
On Well, they split with Pittsburgh, so that would require
a little more free division record, conference record.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
They beat the Ravens and if they went out, they
will have beaten the Ravens twice.
Speaker 5 (24:19):
Yeah, as would Pittsburgh. Yeah, the five, So it could
get a little convolu But first things first, try to
try to look like a first place team on Sunday
in Baldimore. You know, I don't think Rogers is a
guy who parents with the coaches tell them a lot
of guys are no. And it was funny just walking
around the locker room talking at different guys yesterday. The
(24:40):
two obvious themes were what he addressed there. Did the opportunity,
Hey this is you know, you're playing for first place.
Everything's still in front of you, a great chance here.
And physicality got to be more physical.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Well they certainly weren't that.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Yeah, you know, and I thought more about what you
were seeing when you go back and watch just some.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Footage of the James Cook.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Runs where he's just ripping off fifteen eighteen, the same
play every time. It's clear TJ's crashing down on those those.
Speaker 5 (25:09):
Are all starting inside and he's bouncing.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Them and there is supposed to be somebody there.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
And that's somebody on the edge, and it looks like
what safety or a corner.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
It looks like it's supposed to be Joey Porter Jr.
A lot of times. So as much as we were
giving him credit for the three tackles he made, he
was supposed to make fifteen of those. Now, I don't know,
But but is it wise to put him there in
that position?
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Well, I mean, I know they count on their cornerbacks
for physicality and run support.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
He's become a better tackler, but that has always been
their thing.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
Yes. Is Joey Porter on Cook an appropriate matchup?
Speaker 3 (25:48):
No, apparently.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
But the thing is when he faced him one on one,
he won those battles.
Speaker 5 (25:55):
It's just he wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
He wasn't in position.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
He was following inside and to do too much getting
out of his gap, and that herein lies the problem.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
I just think that the compulsion to be a part
of the play is so great for these guys that
staying home and staying disciplined is like a damn near
impossible task for a lot of nflers.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
It's like, well, particularly when you don't have harmon in
there and you don't trust clearly the guys that are
playing inside.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Remember in the Departed, when that guy's in the car
and he's like, hey, he's on the roof. They're going
to get him, and Matt Damon's like, just stay put,
just stay there a trooper, and he do not engage.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
He's like, I'm going.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Like, that's it.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
That's what Joey Porter Junior, that's it, right.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
And they have departed from couple of.
Speaker 6 (26:45):
Exactly that guy dies in the movie. I think by
the way he as instantly shot. Yeah in the shootout. Yeah,
he gets shot.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
The message here he gets shot like almost right away
in the shootout of the same.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Next guy out of his gap. That's it.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm not saying it, just suggesting him on the way
for you, missy. Matthews will join us. We used to
do the pick six. Now it's three and out.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
And he's like, you know, Kate, believe you came up
with that. But that perfectly encapsulizes what is going wrong. Right,
you just stay in the car, right, just stay there.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
But you can't.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Big cat guy, Junker and a whole lot more. Abby's
got your news at the top of the hour.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Driver list, cabs are coming to Pittsburgh, and we'll talk
Instagram etiquette like should you airbrush someone's face without their permission?
Speaker 2 (27:34):
If you missed it yesterday, we had our buddy Tad
Whistle do the Pittsburgh Steelers alphabet for you and we'll
play that for you next TV.
Speaker 5 (27:43):
Bigger than Pittsburgh.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
This is bigger. I'm telling you this is bigger.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Streaming twenty four seven worldwide at dve dot com and
through the free iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
Is this season making show.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
I was telling you earlier how the Pittsburgh City Paper
is asking its readers to submit the Pittsburgh alphabet AZ
words that describe Pittsburgh. So I asked Tad to do
the same thing with this version of the Pittsburgh Steelers,
the twenty twenty five Pittsburgh Steelers and eighth through Z.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Tad Whistle take it away.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
A for adjustments adjustments, yes, as in Tomlin, don't make
no adjustments. B Randy for booing renegade?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
Was it a bunch of drunk people looking for something
anything to scream about or an indication of the disconnect
between the powers that be and the Hoypelois.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Seemed like this might have been to let the meat
cake moment, let them listen to sticks. I'm not proud
of this one. C is for the C word hold
on now, for you know which I find myself screaming
a dozen or so times during these games, making the
(29:07):
Steelers at least partly responsible for my forthcoming d divorce.
He is for the episode after the Chargers game when
I almost got three zero two to the Hangar sports
bar in Coreopolis Peaks and Valleys, almost ast f Friarmouth.
(29:32):
I guess I can barely say his name right. It
felt like it took two years to learn how to
say that guy's name. Where are they hiding this dude.
It's not like John Whu Smith's getting his touches. G
for good dudes, Good dudes, Jalen Warren, good dude, Herbic,
a couple others. Blow it all up, and let's start
(29:55):
over with these guys. We'll get a little place, we'll
have a cow. I'm down on the flat. We're gonna
have a field of our fouth for all the good dudes,
and I will tend to them.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Farmer tad H is for hell, say the line, Coach,
we want here in December.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Unleash Hell. We're in Hell. Get us out of Hell.
My last hell. Please eyes for irritable bow syndrome.
Speaker 6 (30:34):
After stress eating a pound of cashews while James Cook
and the Bills ran butt naked the same corny play
sixty times on the Steelers. Jay is for one Thornhill,
an otherwise forgettable dude who will live forever and steal
her infamy for a stupid thing that he said that
this defense had a chance to be the best of
(30:55):
all time. It is the Howard Dean scream of your
twenty five Pittsburgh Steelers. K is for Cam getting knead
in the stomach by Josh Allen. You're the d lineman,
he's the quarterback. You're supposed to knee him, and not
(31:17):
in the stomach, in the groin. That's how backwards things
are right now. Elis for long December, except there's no
reason to believe that maybe this year will be better
than the last. Emma's for Mason, as in Mason ain't
pulling their asses out of the fire this Christmas, and
(31:40):
for nameless Gray Faces, a once fun tomlinism that right now,
like all Tomlinism just annoys you. Yeah, oh, offensive line,
Why does our offensive line always suck?
Speaker 3 (31:53):
P Pat Meyer? Pat Myers should be fired because the
offensive min so.
Speaker 6 (32:03):
Speaking of underperforming Pats, Humus for Queen, we already gotta
watch you on Sunday. Seeing you beef with former stealer
backups on Twitter is a new level of aggravation. We
simply do not need log off my man, our Ravens
week oof used to bring such joy. Feels like this
(32:24):
one snuck up on me, but really I was just
dreading it. S is for scheme. The word use so
much this season it no longer means anything at all.
Out schemed, over schemed, under schemed, schematics, schemantics, steely mcscheme,
(32:46):
Paul schemes.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Everybody haven't fun, We haven't fun.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Out down.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
To put a bow on the letter s.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Let's say so long and cyonara to scapegoat Tea Terra
whose exit interview is gonna be a lot like Joe
Peshi's in Goodfellas. It was revenge for Joey Flatco and
a lot of other things. You ugly, the wins, the losses,
(33:18):
the season of the for victories. Look at the rest
of this schedule, show me the victories.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Yeah, not a lot.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
W for wide receiver two, which the Steelers finally solve
with Adam Feelin. Hey, if you're pissed off about them
signing a thirty five year old wide out in what
seems to be his final NFL season, imagine how Adam
Thielen feels. While we're talking about reed treads. Why not
kick the tires on x Xavier Grimble. Maybe he's the
(33:52):
missing piece of this Arthur Smith offense. One more tight
end really opened the playbook. Why for YOI used to
be a happy exclamation, It's time to start using YOI
in a sad, somber way. YOI double and finally zee
(34:18):
her zillow doom scroll. I use it as a calming technique.
Steelers in the middle of another second half collapse. I
wonder how many bedrooms I could get if I moved
to eighty four.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
There you go, the Pittsburgh Steelers alphabet.
Speaker 5 (34:37):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by iron Workers Local Union number three.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
They don't go to the office. They build it at
Steelers Pro Shop.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Get it direct from the team at Shop dot Steelers
dot Com.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
Here's Tom Opperman.
Speaker 10 (34:51):
The Steelers had it to their wide receiver room this
week when they signed thirty five year old Adam Feeling
to the team after he was let go by the
Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Keelan appeared in eleven games this year for.
Speaker 10 (34:59):
The Vikings, but I'm caught eight passes for sixty nine
yards and wanted to seek out a bigger role on
a different team in what will be his.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Final NFL season.
Speaker 10 (35:06):
Although his better days are certainly behind him, Feeland has
an impressive resume and tons of experience to draw from
the twelve year Vets spend ten of those seasons in Minnesota,
highlighted by his second team All Pro performance season in

season three times over his career, twice with the Vikings
and once more with the Panthers in twenty twenty three.
The Minnesota native has amassed eighty three hundred and eighty

yards and sixty four touchdowns over his career. At thirty
five years old, Land surely isn't going to be the
Steelers answer to the offense, as woes in the passing
game or even the number two wide receiver they have
so long sought after, but he still could be an
upgrade to what they currently are working with. Last Sunday
in Buffalo, no receiver other than DK Metcalf caught even
a single pass, and receivers not named Metcalf have just

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
