All time with Pens Best 2 centers are Lemiux and Crosby. Who would number 3 be? Francis or Apps?
Zeise
12:50
i would say Evgeni Malkin

Hi Paul,
Zeise

Hello
TP Ranger

Paul, I watched the 1979 World Series Game 5 replay on Major League Network Monday. Great seeing those old Pirates greats. I think the key that season was when the Pirates traded to get Bill Madlock, a great-hitting third-baseman, from the Cubs. Do you think we will ever again see the Pirates make a smart trade like this and become a pennant contender?
Zeise
12:54
They have made some smart trades the last few years. They have also made some bad trades. But the A.J. Burnett trade was one that I’d say sprung the Pirates into contention.

Paul  -- it seems that the Steelers are plugging offensive holes with adequate replacements -- Ebron, WIsnewski, etc.  Is adequate good enough or is Ben the difference.
Zeise
12:56
I think both players have a chance to be more than adequate. They are both players who can help the Steelers win. I think both are upgrades over the players they will replace

I am concerned Rudolph may suffer from shell shock. His first year as a starter he was knocked unconscious, hit over the head with his own helmet, accused of using racial slurs, and suffered a serious, painful injury that ended his season. That is a lot to endure in one season for a young guy. Does his makeup indicate he can bounce back with no residual effects.
Zeise
12:58
I thought he was shell shocked the next week after he got hurt. But then he got benched for a few weeks and he was able to recover and I thought he played well when he returned for that one game. He will be fine

I haven't forgotten Paul you and Walls making fun of me on the air. Promoting drinking is a sin and not morally right on a sports show. I wish I could tell you that in person so maybe you'd get it.
Zeise
1:02
I’m gonna take you by surprise, and make you realize, Amanda! I’m gonna tell you right away, I can’t wait another day, Amanda! I’m gonna say it like a man and help you understand, Amanda, I love you......

I'll get skewered for suggesting this but if his neck is healthy and he'd be willing to be the back up at a reasonable cost, I'd prefer Joe Flacco over Rudolph or Hodges.
Zeise
1:03
Yes you will get skewered and should because he is done. As in done done. As in CNP, which stands for can not play......

I just saw the clip of Dave Parker throwing out Brian Downing in 1979 All Star game. The man deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
Zeise
1:04
I agree it is nonsense that he isn’t. Baseball is the one two-way sport that really truly values defense when it comes to things like all star and hall of fame voting

Heard Coach Dambrot in your show. Did he really say  allplayers will be able to transfer without sitting out a year in the future? That sounds like the end of mid majors?
Zeise
1:06
Yes and he is right. They are changing the rules. It will hurt mid-majors at first but I think mid-majors will benefit from it in the long run. They will have plenty of players transferring from bigger programs to them in order to get more playing time. It will work both ways
Jason Thompson
1:06
I haven't played baseball for the Pirates in decades. What am I up to these days? How come the Pirates never invite me to come see them play?
Zeise
1:07
While Jason Thompson, they could have used you the last few years!
Tom

Paul every year you keep making excuses for Narduzzi. This guy might be a solid coordinator but he is definitely not an above average head coach. His gameday decisions stink, he doesn't recruit well and Pitt will never go to the next level with him. Yet you keep defending him. It's a joke. I bet if Pitt wins 7 games this season you'll defend him again.
Zeise
1:09
How am I defending him by saying Pitt should give him more time. Do you like the revolving door of coaches? Was 2009-2015 fun for you? He has built the program and it should be a breakthrough year for them. If he only wins 7 games this year it would be a very bad step for the program. I’m confident they will win more than that

Hi Paul...if the Steelers draft an edge defender at #49, is that possibly a signal that they don’t think Dupree will sign a long term deal?
Zeise
1:10
I don’t think they can sign Dupree and they know it. And I think they will draft a linebacker early because they need depth there and also a long-term solution

NCAA charges officials to officiate their baseball games. With the canceled schedule for 2020, the ncaa has decided to keep 75% of the fees they charged for 2019. Isn't this group outdated and ridiculous?
Zeise
1:11
Unfortunately I have no idea what you are talking about. It sounds wrong but I don’t know the details so I can’t give you an opinion
Doyle37
1:11
Madlock came from the Giants
Scott Stout

Hey Amanda, do you know what the difference is between intelligence and your stupidity?  Intelligence has limits.
Zeise
1:12
Fight nice now children!
RebelLaw
1:12
with the changes with the CBA, why not take a flyer on bringing Martavious back?
Zeise
1:12
How about, no. That would be a disaster. They finally have rid themselves of all their pain in the ass players
Church lady

Who is this Amanda bozo?
jake
1:13
Amanda is an idot
Zeise
1:13
Amanda seems to be struggling to win friends and influence people......
Rich from Indio

I can't underatand why the Steelers would draft a WR.  They have 3 quality WR's now plus 2 TE's.  A 2nd round pick doesn't get on the field much in 2020.  A RB is more reasonable but the OL and ILB need help/depth.  Do you think they go WR or RB in 2nd round.
Zeise
1:14
I don’t. I think they will go linebacker, Oline or tight end
Bizzee Bee

How is it possible that the NFL players that Marty Blazier ripped off did not kick his a_s?  It is even crazier that he is not in jail.
Zeise
1:15
That’s the American way - make a deal, tell on some others, stay out of jail.
Damien
1:16
Thoughts on what it would take to acquire someone like Philip Lindsay? Obviously very doubtful something like that would ever happen, but the writing on the wall in Denver seems like he may be on his way out. Thanks.
Zeise
1:17
Is he even available? I think he is under the contract. And I don’t think they would trade much for a reserve running back
