Baby Simon, casting on ESPN nine seventy sounds so fancy.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
What's because I'm in here with you? Man?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
You make everything sound fancy. You know that it's because
you're big time. Oh you fancy more portly, big time,
big time?
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Oh you fancy? Huh?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
But I mean we've been having a pretty good going today, man,
reacting to some of the injuries that they still sustained
on Sunday versus the Niners and ultimately the guys that
have been placed on injury reserve, some of the guys
that are potentially gonna miss some time. We've even talked
about some former guys that we're very familiar with.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Who do you think you and if we should.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Come and put them on put that jersey back on,
you know? But either way, I do feel like now
it's time to hear from the power grid, the megawat.
It's time to hear from you know, the people the people,
the audience, some.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Of their thoughts on some of these convos.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
So, without further ado, let's hit these phone lines one
time for the coach.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
All Right, you want me to DJ over here?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
You know you the guy?
Speaker 4 (01:47):
All right, Well, Phil in New Jersey is gonna lead us?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Hey, fellas not feel Phil?
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Bill?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Sorry about that?
Speaker 6 (01:58):
I know, he said, calling in from New Jersey.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
It's tough, tough out here getting the steel or stuff.
You know. I found this, Uh found you guys on
the radio, and you know, the conversation is great when
you haven't when you have a former player, and that's
part of the show. And you know MOSTI was one
of my favorite players watching when he was with the team.
I wouldn't, all right, I mean I wouldn't. I wouldn't
(02:24):
really bring back a player like ad just because I
feel like he was growing the locker room because these
two toxic. We've seen it too many times, you know,
and you you were in you were in that team
when he was there, right like, you wouldn't know. And
I gave tom On a lot of credit for holding
all that together when he was there, because I can
only imagine what was going on behind the scenes.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah, and that's you know, part of the reason why
you know, we say what we say in terms of
younger players being around him, that could be very challenging.
At least, you know, during that time frame for us,
we were a veteran group, so we at least could
handle those of the stuff behind the scenes a little
bit better and compartmentalize it. Whereas we're talking about very young,
impressionable players.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
That's not always the case with them.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Yeah, and i'd like to see want actually put a spewerside.
Would that be a first time for a three brothers
on a team.
Speaker 7 (03:22):
Well, Derek's not with them anymore, but three at least
played in the same organization.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
I would like if not like the forties or the
fifties or you.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Know, yeah, we've done two players for what the past
seventy eight years we have had.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
And Benson played in the league.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
We have had the same team. We'd have had the
Vince Vince Williams and his little brother at the time.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, been a couple of Matthews in the
league at the same time.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
But yeah, he would shoot up and contribute like you
know how we need him Cam style.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
You know, it would be interesting. It'd be a heck
of a storyline. Bill, There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Yeah, I appreciate that. I appreciate the shows and I
listened every day.
Speaker 7 (04:05):
Appreciate it from New Jersey. Not still Bill from New Jersey.
Thanks for calling, partner, and call back anytime.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
I will definitely there.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
He is alight, So.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
From the heart, Bill and New Jersey Babies.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Said, I like the talent, but I don't need that
back in the locker room.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
That's kind of what you echoed. And I love how
you you know, Delegate.
Speaker 7 (04:27):
That's that's why Tampa Bay brought him in when they did, right,
because they had a veteran offense with Tom Brady and
with Mike Evans and and you know a lot of
guys that were proven in the league are approven offensive line,
and some great leaders on defense as well too, like
Levante David Right and some of those guys they had
on the other side of the football as well. Steelers offenses, man,
(04:50):
still a really young unit, and I think that's an
important important difference to make.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
There, very very big distinction, very very big distinction. Man.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
You want to you want to take one more here?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
We got another one on the last shore. Is there
a hard Is there another call out there?
Speaker 7 (05:05):
Our buddy Cuban Dan Hans shout out the Cuban Dan
one time for the culture doll.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Hey Peter, what's happening all right?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Don't give me that Doben gloom? Baby? How we fill in?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
How we live in?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Come on?
Speaker 6 (05:23):
Yeah. I read a funny meme the other day that said,
we're coming into that time of the year where a
group of men that have absolutely no idea are going
to determine how my mood is for the rest of
the week for.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Talk about a Cuban Cuban I'm I'm already. I can't
think about anything else besides Saturday night. And if I'm
gonna have bragging rights for three hundred and sixty four days,
or if I'm gonna have to hear it from those
fans of that stinking university located in the Oakland district
of town for another.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
Year, Man, I got I mean, I made the mistake
of getting on a AFC North trash talking group on Facebook.
It has been brutal, and I just my pride won't
let me bounce out of it to stick around and represent.
(06:15):
You know, I was listening to the to the locker room,
and I know that it's been debunked, and I'm confident
that it is debunked. But I just can't see another
reason for why Kenny played so poor outside of him
getting his head messed up somehow. And I just I,
for all that I try, man, I can't wrap my
(06:37):
mind around it because I hadn't I haven't really seen that.
I hadn't really seen that out of him after his
first what three or four games, when he started to
figure things out. I just I can't figure out why
why he played the way that he played.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
You're not wrong in terms of trying to find a reason.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
That's human nature, right they they talk about the whole
when you're about to die, your life lash for you
eye because you just trying to make it make sense.
So you're like, man, maybe it was because I ate
tacos five years ago and I had a tummy ache.
Maybe it was because I got pushed an eyeball, and
I can't see it. So whenever a player plays bad,
especially with the expectations that a lot of people had
surrounding Kenny, largely because of what we saw this preseason.
(07:21):
Even though we talked even though we talked about that
context between last season and this preseason, I do feel
like people kind of came out there with unrealistic expectations
for him in certain elements, and even though he did
play bad, I just feel like when you combine those
(07:41):
two things together, now it becomes the how do I
justify my feelings for why I felt like that? And
now we're looking for any every little thing. Oh, he
hit his head, when you feel it had to be
a concussion, It's like, man, we all have had our hairds.
We altn't done this. He was out there, and that's
why we say if a player is playing, you have
to just assume that he is healthy enough to play,
(08:02):
because otherwise every single.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Game were gonna play this game.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yeah, well, hey man, I did see you know, LEVI
he bumped his health He bumped his helmet when they
was warming up. So that's why he missed that tackle
versus McCaffrey. Like that could be how that slippery slope starts.
So as much as I did see the same play
that you're referring to, and I understand the thought process
behind it, Kenny didn't come out that game. The independent
(08:27):
neuroagers didn't come out and say anything, nothing transpired.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
They're keeping an eye on that with the quarterbacks more
than ever since.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
He had two concussions last year. Yeah, he had two
concussions last season. It's a heightened sense for him specifically.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
But this is the cause and effect of how do
I justify the feelings that I had for this player
prior to this season starting and now him looking drastically different.
How do I make that feel normal or at least
find some comfort in that?
Speaker 1 (08:59):
And that's you know, part of it.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
That's it.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
I'm just seeking comfort.
Speaker 7 (09:04):
Oh hey, self scouting. That's a great tendency.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I love the fact that you said it.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Additionally that when I saw this pop up the past
couple of days on social media, I literally was like, bro,
we see can comfort right now? We can all acknowledge
can he play bad? We can all acknoledge that we
know he's capable of playing better, but we don't need
to start making excuses for it, because and now, when
you start making the excuses for a player, now the
(09:31):
player shouldn't be panished to any of this type of stuff.
But what ends up happening is now he feels like
I can get let off the hook. The Meatia is
not gonna be as hard on me if I play bad,
because they'll just say it was this, or they'll just
find another reason for me. And as players in that
locker room, you feel that, and that is when you
start to get some tens and that's when you start
to look at dudes and it's like, well, hey, how
(09:52):
you're gonna hold me accountable? But when he doesn't play well,
nobody holds him accountable. Y'all make every excuse for this
specific player when he doesn't play well. That's slippery sloping
if you don't have a player that has already established enough,
like of Ben Roethlisberger for example. When you see that
type of difference, it's like, yo, you can't get the
(10:12):
treatment that seven would get of we're gonna give you
benefit of the doubt. We're gonna look for reasons why
you didn't play well, and you not have what seven
brought us Lombardies, crazy wins, crazy performance.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Old jacket.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Right right now, we're trying to see if Kenny can
do those type of things, but we can't give him
the same type of leash and lee way and benefit
of the doubt always that we would give seven. And
that's why to me, I just look at it and say,
can he just play bad? He played rattled, The moment
looked too big for him. You take it on the chin.
How do you respond from this? And that's what I'm
(10:47):
more interested to see with Kenny versus trying to really
justify why he played the way that he played. I'm
saying that's an outlier. Last seven games of the season,
three preseason games seen him look good, confident, make the
throws he's supposed to make, short, intermediate downfill middle of
the field. This was the first performance in eleven games
(11:08):
that we haven't seen him do that. Take it as
an all performance. That's how I looked at it.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Yeah, Dan, you you weren't like, you're not crazy to
go there.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
You're definitely not problem when that when.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
That play happened, I you know, I Steelers go three
and out there and we go to break in the
booth and I said to Wolf and Belly, like, man,
Kenny really got did you guys see that Kenny really
got slammed on that third place? So with the concussions
last year, I think our mind all goes there.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
But can I ask both of you all the questions though,
ye'ah bring up you know Kenny falling back and hitting
his head. What about when Naji got hit by fred
One on the run through. That was a way harder hit,
a way more concussions.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
That's a concussion that.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
You didn't have, didn't have two concussions.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
That is a more high probability of the concussion type hit.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
I agree, I agree with most it's a higher probability.
I think that the reason that people probably don't focus
on nause is because he's not throwing the ball. There's
there's a different when you're watching the game. I'm sure
it's it's different when you're playing, but when you're watching
the game, there's it feels like there's more of how
(12:13):
do I phrase this, like a technical aspect as far
as placement, Like you have to be more precise when
you're a quarterback as opposed to if you're a running back.
You know, the the line could break down, someone can
beat you in the backfield, whatever the case may be. Like,
I think it's more illustrated inconsistencies when you're a quarterback
(12:33):
than when you're running.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Totally. I definitely agree with you in that and consistent quarterback.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
You miss a wide receiver, you throw an interception, running back,
you might gain a yard or two.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Still, you miss a hole and well offensive line, right, you.
Speaker 7 (12:45):
Might miss the whole four yards right right.
Speaker 6 (12:49):
And I guess it was just it was really illustrated
when when he threw the ball behind Deontay coming into
into the half like that. That looked like a routine
throw and it was just it was completely off. And
I think a lot of people had to take a
step back and wonder what's going on here because this
is and this is what we expected.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Well, and that was I'm glad you brought that up
because the reason why I say, I don't go for
the concussion convo, and I'm glad you brought that specific
play up. You look, in the first quarter before that
even happened, he was late, and he was low, and
it was because of the odds first quarter he was
missing throws slightly behind, slightly low. That's why, once again,
(13:31):
for me, I didn't buy the narrative of, oh, this
happened because of him hitting his head right here specifically,
because he had looked like that out.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Of the game.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
It was just a perfect storm. Wasn't he like that?
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Out the gate.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
I mean he gets sacked early. They go three and out.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
The Niners score his Fred Warner in the chest because
he's late on a drag route.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
All of a sudden, you're chasing the game. You're down ten,
you're down seventeen. It was it was just a perfect storm.
I think of unfortunate results out there for the offense.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
But that's ultimately once again though, why you just leaning
to it and say bad performance, Take it on the day,
move forward, because otherwise, if you seek that comfort now,
you're not gonna really hold yourself accountable and you're gonna
justify why you were missing instead of saying, I just
have to trust my eyes, right I have to step
here and have better.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Fundamentals with my footwork.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
My feetwork, excuse me, no, now, you know those are
some of the things I've thought of right there, Man.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
And Dan, you know, we gotta get to break here.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
But before we let you go, it's it's I you know,
I think of after games like that and questions, rightfully so,
of a lot of different guys, individual performances, the coaching
staff as well too. I always think of the tounch
yokenism of the pistachio theory, right, p sstachio theory. The
only way to you know, every time you crack in pistachios,
every once in a while, you get a bad one, right,
(14:44):
You get like a rotten one, and it just tastes nasty.
And the only way to get that taste out of
your mouth is with a good pistachio. That's it's the
pistachio theory for the Steelers right now. They got a
rotten taste in their mouth from that opener. On Sunday,
a lot of questions being asked again of individual players,
of coaches.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Of units on the team.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
The only way to get that bad taste out of
your mouth is to go out there and have a
good pistachio Monday night against the Browns.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Well, there you have it.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
That's a fair analogy. And you didn't even have to
mention that that was touching wolf because it related to food,
and I would have known that that was touching wolf analogy.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
There you go, love that right there, man. We definitely
appreciate you as always, man.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Absolutely, yeah, So we will go to break right here, man,
because that was a pretty good convo, man, But we
do want to stick with this phone line though, man,
so stick with us. I we coming right back. We're
going to keep this convo rolling as it pertains too.
The good guys and what we're gonna do with this
roster going full with some of these injuries. Don't touch
that doubt are the most Westley Yula And this is
(15:42):
still his Nation Radio.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
This is the Steeler's Blitz with Wesley Euler and Arthur
Motes on your twenty four to seven Home of the
Black and Gold SNR.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Arthur Most, Wesley Euler back doing this thing on Stell's
Nation Radio ESPN nine seventy am. And yes, man, we
are continuing on with our interactive hour. That's what we'd
like to call this part. You know, first hours about us.
We got our thoughts, our comments are concerns.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
We're focusing on our own yard here.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
You know what Wes told me in the pre show meeting,
I don't care about what anybody has to say in
that first hour. We're not opening a phone line. We're
not caring about a tweet. That's what he told me
in the production meeting. I banged the table for you
guys though for the second hour, I said, in the
second hour, man, we gotta dedicated to the people. We
(17:32):
gotta hit phone lines in, we gotta hit tweets.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
So I'm just being accountable and being a man of
my words. You'll know that. So I believe we do.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Guys, two's coming in here, so wes mister, I don't
want to hear from the people in our number one.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
You're gonna be thinking you honest out there, and you
ain't just goofing.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
I'm like, honest, abe kind.
Speaker 7 (17:52):
Of you know what Abraham Lincoln famously said, Nope, don't
believe everything.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
You read on the internet.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Good thing listening to me.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
You want to get do these tweets motes, man.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I've been waiting on you.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Man time here, Thanks Big Red.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
It is.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Our buddy.
Speaker 7 (18:13):
Rudy tweets and says, well, you know, we couldn't use
Arthur motes for my flag football teams. Our top pass
rusher also pulled his gross.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
More up your speed at this boy. Hey, hey, I
still I can turn that coin. I'm just let you
know that I could definitely turn that quote. We need
to do that.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
But I washed, and.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
All of a sudden you washed. Listen you being washed.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
It's still MVP Rudy Flag football League, though I'm confident
in saying that.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
I'm confident in saying.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
That it was It's funny you said that because I
definitely had somebody say it's something very similar to me.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
When I was like, bro washed, They're like to NFL people,
you're washed.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
He's like, to the rest of us, ninety nine percent
of this population, you're not washed. He's like, you walk
around here, still run around, work out like man, man
all this stuff.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
He's like, that's not washed. I was like, but I
am washed, though in my mind I'm washed.
Speaker 7 (19:05):
Bro, I will never forget you. Remember that old show
Pros Versus Joe's.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Yeah, they have Michael there.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
One time he cooked them.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
It was forty six years old. It wasn't even against
a bunch of twenty year old.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
It wasn't even But this is the funny part watching
him cook and then as an NFL player like Bro,
He's slow, oh.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah, I'm over here, Like Bro, I was over here.
I'm over here, like years older than you. I'm like,
I like me out there.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
I need that old my resume just to have an
a white clip because of how we are as athletes.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
But to your rights, everybody else man, he hit the
dude with the hen I'm like, Bro, that won't even
fire it. Hold me Randal, I'm like, oh my god.
Speaker 7 (19:45):
Your most basic pass rush move would cook anyone in
the population that never played at least Division one college.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
For but you.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
But it's so funny, like because for us, we lose
sight of that because we're so lot then too, Bro,
you realize the majority of my life, I'm small in
my mind.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
And I meet you Wes, and You're like, Bro, there
is nothing small about you.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
But my whole life playing sports, I've been the little
guy on the team.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
All about context, right, I'm six.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Four, two forty playing in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
You're like, Bro, you're a little guy out there until
you walk the Walmart and everybody's like, who is this
mammoth walking around here?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
Right now?
Speaker 7 (20:25):
It's funny you say that. Last week, Guess who I
saw walking I did a double take. Guess who I
saw walking through target? Tyson Ala swear to guy.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Does he look like a known person?
Speaker 7 (20:37):
No, That's why I did it double take. I was like,
my goodness, that guy's walking through the target two weeks ago.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Two weeks ago, and we could all say the same, Oh,
he's just five ten three hundred. There's a lot of
five ten three hundred walking around. It's not a lot
of Tyson walking around though, when we're always six four
two two.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
Trival tattoos on his arms and his cat, You're.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Like, who's the guy with his legs tatted up, arms
tatted up, with the big smiled talking about Hey, yes, indeed,
Oh damn, that's not a normal walk around guy.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
And I did the you Doing'm proud of me. I
did the like oh like, you know, like he came
on sn R a few times. Should I go say
hello and ask him how he's doing it? I'm like,
I'm leaving that guy alone. I'm leaving that guy.
Speaker 7 (21:15):
But I saw Tyson all all the walking through target,
and he stood out like what stands out more than
a sore thumb?
Speaker 4 (21:20):
Is there something that stands out more than a sore thumb?
Speaker 1 (21:22):
A bad smell?
Speaker 4 (21:23):
He stood out like a bad smell.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
I mean, walking through the Cranberry Target, just towering over everybody. Yeah,
your most basic pass rush move would cook.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
So you're right anyway, I apologize for that.
Speaker 7 (21:34):
I do A forty six year old Michael Irvan out
there crossing up twenty year olds.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
It, but I'm gonna still stick with my watching his man.
After watching What Happened to Aaron Rodgers the other day,
it made my calf hurt. I had never seen like
the slow.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Mo of that.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
I was like, Oh, where have I been my whole life?
I've missed that. That's the memo, the the cave rever.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I learned so much about akiles and calves.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Not at boy, I wish I would like, I'm about
to get off anywhere. We don't even want to walk fast?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Right? Yeah? You know what?
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Actually I can't. I can't work out anymore. I can't.
I can't do any cardio because now I'm afraid of
my achillinges.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Man, I don't want the double bumps. That's ain't that me?
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Tweets us?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Who what up? Though?
Speaker 7 (22:15):
Says doctor west Man and Professor Motzy, Happy hump Day.
It's all easy peasy from here.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Ain't that the truth?
Speaker 4 (22:21):
No, it's not, because I just get more stressed and
more stressed and more stressed.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
As we get closer to Saturday, and then I'll have
a day Sunday to recover, and then I'll be stressed
and stressed stressed this weekend Monday.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Y'all won this weekend. Jam, you won this weekend. Y'all
had a big victory.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
We had a big pit win this past weekend.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
No, they did not win this past weekend.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Man, did their quarterbacks say some things that ticked off
the entire family? Possibility that did get the double down
on that this week?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Well, you know, he got a big chest, so you
know he feel pumped up by a lot of stuff.
So that's probably an accurate assessment. Yeah, he does have
a big chest, doesn't.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
Three questions for me as always or you know, thoughts, questions, comments, concerns, reactions.
Number one is feel good about the depth of wide receiver.
I fully exp Calvan Austin. The third to get a
lot of snaps and I'm looking forward to it. So no,
mister big chest, whether we're talking about the head coach
of pet or the former artist that were number eighty
four in Pittsburgh. Number two from me is are Yin's
(23:14):
looking forward to pumpkin spice season.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
Now, this is a good one.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I told you.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
I don't know we already had that convo, but like
I recently, I think it was last year was like my.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
First probably we probably got this question at some point,
I feel.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Like that was like my first time really trying pumpkin spice,
and I do like it. I rock with it. I
used to like, I never really had like a hard stance,
and I would.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
See people joke about as pumpkin spicies and they do
all the tailor swift me.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Girl, Yeah, but I ain't a lit man. I don't
trip on it.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Like for me, I'm typically you know, I go to
my Starbucks, I get my cinnamon Dolce latte.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Always that's me.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
But I'm always hot too.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
But now that it's well, it's because you look good.
And I mean, with the hair like that, how could
you not always be hot?
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Baby? Come on now?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
But when I think of the pumpkin spice, I'm like,
I'm a dad in that. But for me, I have
to wait till October. Yeah, it legitimately has to have
that October in the morning, full leaves. Now it's pumpkin spice.
Otherwise it's premature. And if it's premature, I don't want it.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
I'm pretty much on the same page as you. My
pumpkin spice pumpkin flavored. Like, I don't dislike it. I
think it's fine. It's just not something that I seek
out a lot either, if that makes sense. I usually
once a year will stop at either Starbucks or Dunkin
and we'll get a pumpkin spice latte hot like you
say as well too, I do cold. I do iced
coffee occasionally, but if it's like a latte or Americana
(24:36):
or something fancy like.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
That, I can. I do the ic coffee.
Speaker 7 (24:38):
Man, we see, like I had wanted. When we were
in Tampa for the preseason a couple weeks ago, it
was ninety two degrees outside already at ten thirty in
the morning.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
I had to get an iced coffee.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
I couldn't.
Speaker 7 (24:47):
I couldn't walk back to the hotel with But ninety
nine percent of the time I'm with you. I like coffee,
I like lattes, I like anything like that warm. Once
a year, I'll stop, usually sometime in October, and I'll
just be like, you know what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Pumpkin spice. I have one a year.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Like same thing with beers, right, like pumpkin flavored beers.
I don't hate them. If someone pours me one or
gives me one and a tailgate or something like that,
I'll drink it, but I'm not going out and buying
a case.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Of pumpkin beer. Man.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Like I said, I would not buy the pumpkin spice
to make it my house on the day to day.
But if, like correct, we happen to go to like
a Starbucks or a Dunkin, or if I'm in Buffalos
Tim Horton and something like that, then yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
I'm occasionally occasionally, but it's definitely not something that I'm perssonning.
Speaker 7 (25:31):
Oh god, I'm not like counting down until pumpkin spice
is here. I'm also not someone who thinks it's trash.
It's just okay, and I'll do it from time to time.
H third and final question for me. He says he
needs to know our highest ever bowling scores.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Uh, I believe I will. The highest one was like
a woe third it was like one.
Speaker 7 (25:51):
I think I'm about in that same round. Yeah, I
was gonna say mid one hundreds was going to be
my answer. I don't know the exact answer. I'm no
Jerome Betta. Sorry.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Regularly, I feel like the highest I've gotten was probably
like one fifty one seventy, and it was like this
when I was a Buffalo Bowl, like on the regular,
so I have my own ball. Like we were doing
that type of thing, the stat of trouble. You know
how it is a lot of time, a lot of money.
You gotta gotta do something. So we had our own
little boat league.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Shout out to shout out to my dog. I like
it I had. I had David Clowney, that's the cousin
to Ja David.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
But he was the big boat, so he got us
all all of balls. Yeah, he taught me my skills.
So yeah, best out I had was like I said,
one fifty one seventy is, but I'm traditional by the
one twenty five thirty.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
That's that's why I as well too. I might have
been up in the one fifties if we.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Went in bold the majority of the time. Like if
it's regular bulls, I feel good about mine. If you
put me out there with Jerome Bettist of San Antonio, like,
I'm gonna hold my own for a little while, but
then ultimately I'm like, they gonna take over because they
do it way more consistently.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Yeah, I just don't do it enough. It's kind of
it's like little it's exact.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
It's like golf I'll get a couple of birdie, but
I also have a few double Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
So it's like, man, I do the spin and all
that type of stuff. But it's definitely sometimes where I'm
like strikes start practice.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I'm the same same.
Speaker 7 (27:11):
Exact way we So when we were in college, the
uh like the student union at you know, like every
campus has the student building, you know, like the student union.
It's called the Mountain Layer in Morgantown, they had a
bowling alley underneath there, and on Monday nights Arthur motes
five dollars games, two dollars beers. Okay, so me and
the rooms would go down there on Monday nights with
like twenty dollars in our pocket and live like kings. Yes,
(27:35):
go so but other than like, I haven't bowled a
ton since I was in college. But yeah, I think
I think you and I are on about the uh
about the same wavelength there. Uh, what do you say, Motzi,
We gotta we got a few more tweets to get
to here. You want to take our last break and
we'll close down more reactions.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
That sounds like a plan to me, man, So what
that be in the case that will be the well
This will be the last k takes, so get your
tweets sing right now.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
If forever holds your peace, it's pretty simple to do.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
At the body fifty two at Wesley Eula and you
already know don't touch Dad Dallas, Arthur Moses, West Eula
or Steals Nation Radio in ESPN nine seventy.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
This is the Steelers Blitz with Wesley Euler and Arthur
Motes on your twenty four to seven Home of the
Black and Gold skn R.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Yes it is. You're twenty seven, You're twenty four to
seven Home with a Black and goal.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
Steals Nation Radio art the most Westerley Eyula final segment
of today's day.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
And the reason why is the final segments because I'm cold.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
It's freezing here.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
It's a reason cold. I can't talk my teeth for
chittering tournament and you're in the studio. Reason man, I
want to see comfort.
Speaker 7 (29:00):
We can make snow in here, like we're seven springs
seeking comfort.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
I'm cold, and I blame Wes because Wes, y'all know,
we's the big timer in the studio. West come in
the building, in the whole building. They's like, yo, who els,
how do you want the tempt sure today, mister mister Ewler.
So if wes come in here with with short, if
he got short, so on, they gonna make it cold,
if he got a hoodie, or they canna make it hot.
I'm the snow man, and we just gotta deal with that,
all right, ladies and gents. So I'm just sitting here
(29:26):
dealing with it right now, but I don't want to anymore.
So I'm gonna pass this off back to the Twitter
dot com because I see some tweeted and came in here,
and I know I got bo six minutes left before
I gotta go because they gonna cut us otherwise. We
had that happen the other day, all right, so I yes, yes,
they was like, yo, y'all got cut in the middle
(29:47):
of it. No, it's the heart out, man. It's it
comes with the upgrade. When you get the upgrade, like
problem absolutely man. Y'all heard he said more money, right,
big time. He's a big time Let's get these last
couple tweets A Hito man something man laughs every day.
Speaker 7 (30:07):
Wife, He's like, it's gonna be eighty some degrees outside.
Why are you wearing a hoodie and sweatpants? I'm like, Babe,
it's gonna be sixty degrees in our studio if that
big Ron tweets us one of our new tweeters here
and he gets the drill already.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
One football question, one non football question, just the way
we like it.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Let's go.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Does Desmond King get any playing time this week? Is
his football question?
Speaker 1 (30:27):
I don't hate that question.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
I do think there could be a possibility just because
of how many guys we've already rotated at that nickel
cornerback position. Multiple guys in very different body types played
that slot corner base outside linebacker role.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Whether it was a TJ.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
A high Smith, a Keanu Nil, whether it was a
Mika Fitzpatrick Casey was down there at the time, Shannon
Sullivan was down there for a time as well. Surprised
we didn't see Elijah Ryland, seriously, like we went through
a decks so it when it't surprised me if Desmie
King did get an opportunity this week and if not
this week, next week, because obviously he's still new to
(31:09):
the team, and at that position, it is a big
communication position, so he has to be on the same
page with everybody around him. Otherwise that could really like
kill your past defense. That Nickel corner is really important
in terms of everybody being on the same page. So
that's just one of the things potentially with him that
(31:30):
he's got to make sure that whenever he does get
his opportunity that he's ready to go mentally, because I'm
not worried about the physical with him, but it's more
so just we all got to be on the same page,
and that specific position requires a lot of communication.
Speaker 7 (31:44):
Completely agree well, said big Ron. Also wants to know
what's the best pizza place in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Well, you know, I'm a Fiories type of dude, but
people will bring up many os.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
We know Kalli Inte.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Is Fire Slice on Broadway. Yeah, so you got multiple
one for you though, Rockaway Pizza in White.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Oak, Okay, Okay, So I heard a.
Speaker 7 (32:03):
Lot of our fellow media media knicks had been championing
this place for about a year.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
I finally had it over the summer, like back in July. Yeah, fantastic.
Speaker 7 (32:12):
Now it's it's out there in the South Hills. So
for me, you know, north of the Wall up where
I live. I mean it's a good forty minute hike.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
No, no, I'm not going to have it very often
for the wall, the rich versus the yeah yeah, yeah,
I got you.
Speaker 7 (32:24):
Baying Claire and Mount Lebanon are in the South Hills.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Scales are tilted. Man, all to have money, y'all got
on that side of town. Man, I'm just over here.
I'm just glad I get to interact with you. So
you just get the bump shoulders aggressive man, rockaway pizza
and white oak. I'm telling you, it's climbing up there.
It's a good one.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
It is.
Speaker 7 (32:43):
It is steeal a Nation nine twenty tweets us and
look at the picture of the shoes that he has
sign hanging above his his pool table.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
In the man cave.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Let's go.
Speaker 4 (32:53):
I love it. I absolutely love it, he says.
Speaker 7 (32:57):
As much as I would hate it, I'd rather have
Cam take the time to rest, as long as he
gets back to one hundred percent. Also, let's put this
mister big chest bs to rest.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Major love major right there. I love it.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Yeah, I do agree, though, Man, let Cam take his time. Man,
don't rush it back, even though it's going to be
very hard for him physically and emotionally, more so emotionally,
not too want to come back out thy work out there,
of course, but that is one of those things you
definitely want to be smart with that specific type of
injury stealing.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
Nation nine to twenty also adds a go ears in.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
There, go ears my dog, come on man backyard brought
his weekend.
Speaker 7 (33:30):
Last go last one here is we got about sixty
seconds till we get cut off. D have the photoshop
shut shows ups down today? He says, what's up, fellas.
If there's ever a game to get the running game
established and control some clock, it's this. We cannot go
three and out and give more opportunities for Nick Chubb
and that offense to attack our defensive line, especially with
Cam Hayward out. Our offense needs to show up on
(33:51):
Monday night playing and simple.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Yeah, you're one hundred percent right man, and trust me,
they are going to want to run that ball with
Nick Chubb. We're gonna have to smash that rent and
turn it back maybe one hundred percent on that one, but.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Uh, that will do it for today's show man.
