So you had to rush here. No 19th hole? Or did you take it with you?

Zeise

1:06

I don’t drink and golf early in the day. Late in the day…..

The Real TP Hunter

Golf slow play is no problem. Just have Amanda the Brew Goddess bring out another six pack!

Zeise

1:06

Good lord, no!!!

I'm trying to think of a more insignificant award than an ESPY. I can't.

Zeise

1:07

I’ve been to the ESPYs and it is every bit as nauseating as it is on TV. A bunch of self congratulatory nonsense among self important people.

Mark

Steeler who will be the most pleasant surprise this season? I'll take Witherspoon.

Zeise

1:07

I will say Chase Claypool. I think he has a big year

Jock Sutherland

Is LIV tour planning on expanding their fields? As they add new players that means lower players who have already played get bumped since fields had set amounts with shotgun starts right? If they are banned from other tours what do the players bumped do. Is LIV still paying them? That would be a real good deal…get paid not to play!

Zeise

1:08

I don’t know what the long term deal is but it is sure fun to watch the PGA Tour have to squirm!!

Mark

The Pirates are on pace for 68 wins at this point. If the over-under is 68, what would you do?

Zeise

1:08

I say if they don’t have a fire sale at the trade deadline they will be 70-92

Joel

I don’t get the approach of having almost literally no back up for Najee Harris. The Steelers are going to run him into the ground. Give the guy a legit back-up! How can the Steelers leadership not see this?

Zeise

1:09

They love Snell and think he is an adequate backup. They don’t agree with your assessment

Rob Manfred

1:09

Our ratings this year for the All Star Game and last years playoffs were the worst ever. I'm thinking next year for the ASG and this year for the playoffs of having some leggy super models and hot young Tik Tok stars interspersed in the line ups next year. Thoughts ?

Zeise

1:09

I agree with needing to change something but I’m not sure what can be done to make it more interesting

The Real TP Hunter

1:10

What team will produce the biggest sports moment in the Steel City this year? Gotta be Pitt football, right?

Zeise

1:10

Yes I think they win the Coastal again

Oneill Cruz

1:10

I'm really not very good and won't be until I play for the Yankees or someone else am I ?

Zeise

1:10

I disagree. I disagree that he isn’t a good player. He may not be an elite superstar but he will be a good player

Joel

1:11

Paul, I for one appreciated your column on Bonds. He was unbelievable in a Pirate uniform and the equal of any of the all-time greats from 89-92. I think he would be viewed differently if he was nicer to the media and if all the mishaps in the 92 game 7 ninth inning against the Braves hadn’t happened. If the Bucs had broken through and made the Series, Bonds would have led them to victory with the weight of playoff failure off his shoulders. Anyway, he’s a no brainer for a Pirate Hall of Fame and should be in the baseball Hall of Fame.

Zeise

1:11

Yes, exactly he was really good for seven years. He carried the team to their only three division titles since 1979

Joel

1:11

Steelers opening day QB is ….?

Zeise

1:11

Barring injury, Trubisky without a doubt

1:12

OK I have to run, that’s it for me let’s do it again next week!!
