Yes you can hear it 100 times a day on my station!
Stash

Oz, McCormick or other for you Paulie?
Zeise
12:29
I’m a third party voter so I didn’t have a horse in the race

Hello Paul.  I haven’t seen/heard John Wehner on the Pirates games as often as in previous seasons?  Is this because he has other interests?  Do you see him possibly leaving the broadcast booth and being replaced by someone like Kevin Young or Neil Walker?  Thank you.
Zeise
12:30
Yes he has other interests I think he just does road games
Yuri

Hello Paul.  Do you have a favorite or two to win at Southern Hills?  Thank you Paul.
Zeise
12:30
No it is wide open! Maybe Rahm but definitely not Phil!!!

With divisions going away in NCAA football conferences it seems at least in the near future that Pitt’s chances of getting back to an ACCChampionship game just got a bit harder…and PSUs maybe a bit easier.  Do you like the change to eliminate the divisions?
Zeise
12:33
I don’t think it changes much for Penn State because the teams in their division are still in their way. I do think it makes it tougher for Pitt because they will have to deal with Clemson and company every year

Hey Paul. I’ve been enjoying the NBA playoffs.  Do you prefer the coverage of ESPN or TNT?  Thanks.
Zeise
12:33
TNT. ESPN has become a parody of itself and ruins things at every turn

I'm curious. Would you let Letang, Malkin, and Kapanen go, save that money, and resign Rust and Rakell and a couple of blue liners?
Zeise
12:34
I would not let Letang go
Mercury

Have you ever seen a UFO?
Zeise
12:35
No I have not. But I haven’t seen Bigfoot either

Any news on Jordan Addison, or does Pitt even care anymore, given that they are getting some quality receivers coming in. And how do you follow up a Biletnikoff Award season when your QB is in the NFL
Zeise
12:35
It is down to Texas and USC
Mercury
12:35
Put your money on Fenwick yet?
Zeise
12:35
Should I?
Mr. Peabody
12:35
Paul, wasn't there once an educational component to college athletics?  Now, this portal, NIL, etc.  It's insane.
Zeise
12:37
That is what is hilarious - it is almost like people forget that these are students
Mercury
12:37
Did Rodrigues cost them
Zeise
12:38
His penalty wasn’t ideal but you had a 3-1 series lead, a 2-0 lead in game 5 and 6 and a 3-2 lead going into third period of Game 7 — there is a whole lot of blame to go around
Mercury
12:38
Did the Rodrigues penalty cost them the season?
Zeise
12:38
See above
Braden

If Boston Management cleans house including Sullivan, do you see Trotz being hired to replace him?
Zeise
12:39
Barry Trotz is a great coach. He would last about ten minutes with this group of stars with his style of hockey.
Scott

Regardless of who it is, the Steelers will have a new starting QB this year. If the offense stinks again how difficult will it be to determine if it's the QB or the OC? This could develop in to a real chicken or the egg scenario.
Zeise
12:40
If the offense stinks Canada is gone. If the offense stinks they could draft a QB next year as well

Paul, Fenway Sports upper management has already stated that they are very happy with Sullivan as their HC. They also have been very quiet about Burke (his hire was a way for Mario to thank him for past help) and Hextall. Your thounghts?
Zeise
12:41
As I said - Burke is likely gone, Hextall 50/50 and Sullivan safe
Paul
12:41
If Justin Layne had not been a 3rd round pick, would he still be on the team? He seems like another in a long line of failed DB draft picks under the Tomlin/Colbert regime.
Zeise
12:41
He might not make the team this year
ev
12:41
Paul, assuming Pittsburgh is your first choice, where might be your second regional choice to cover sports?
Zeise
12:42
Aruba, followed by Hawaii
Tiger
12:42
Any expectations for me this week? Make the cut, fade on the weekend again?
Zeise
12:42
Yeah just make the cut big guy
kevin in Punxsy
12:42
I think one thing that could help the NHL re: their terrible officiating........give the HC's 1-2 challenges a game, w/o being penalized if their wrong. The officiating would have to get better if they are being looked at.  Your thoughts??
Zeise
12:42
No no no - enough with the coaches challenges and reviews. It is ruining sports
Paul
12:42
Are we embarking on a really bad era for Pittsburgh pro sports? The Pens and Steelers are trending down and the Pirates is the Pirates.
