Because they were hoping some GM from another team visited Amanda’s house for all liqoured up and then called Cherrington and offered him a trade

Do you think Canada will ever stop requiring Covid vaccines for people entering the country or will the Blue Jays, Raptors, and hockey teams have eternal home field advantages because their opponents are missing players?
Zeise
1:41
At this point vaccine mandates are so pointless that Canadians get what they deserve for going along with that nonsense

Didn't your newspaper just report yesterday that Johnson and the Steelers were on a different planet or some such thing in negotiations? What happend there
Zeise
1:41
Not just our newspaper, a lot of people reported that. That tells me, you don’t ever want to play poker with Omar Khan because his poker face is incredible.

Paul, do you think the re-worked O-line will create an extra 1/2 second to allow our receivers to create some space? Their lack of pass pro seemed to be the problem with our wr’s getting separation.
Zeise
1:42
I would hope so. I think they have definitely upgraded center but they have a lot of work to do to prove they are a better unit

Are you ready to pay Cruz yet? I think my novice eyes have seen enough to try to buy out a few arbitration years.
Zeise
1:43
It would all depend on his asking price and the number of years. I wouldn’t go 10 years with him so I might wait another year or two before I put together a deal

Will Pitt and Penn State ever meet in a bowl game ?
Zeise
1:44
Probably not. It just never seems like that will line up for it to happen. We may not see that game for a long, long time

Paul, the investigator also wrote that she was suspending him for six games, because the NFL/NFLPA document didn't address punishment for a serial sex offender, nor sentencing instructions.  In other words, this women didn't have the guts to sentence DW to a year, as requested by the NFL.
Zeise
1:45
I think she picked a number that she knew Watson would accept. And she put the ball in the commissioner hands. The whole process is a farce

If you were inclined to, what is the best way to bet the Steelers this year? I'm not much of a gambler and I understand that there are about a half a million ways to bet these days. Just go with over/under wins?
Zeise
1:46
I think the easiest bet on the board is over 7 1/2 wins. There is no question in my mind the Steelers will win nine games minimum
Steeltown

Paul, Lovin this DJ deal. Seems we got a bargain, and 18 mil/season is good for him too. I love all the weapons on offense, now if one of these QB’s can grab hold of the job, I like this team. Your thoughts?
Zeise
1:48
It is a win-win for both sides. Johnson got a good deal and a good chunk of guaranteed money and can be a free agent in a few years. The Steelers keep him around for another two years but aren’t married to him for a long, long time

I hope that whatever the NFLPA got in exchange for allowing the NFL Commish to have the final word on player punishment was worth it.
Zeise
1:49
Yep. The NFLPA completely whiffed in the CBA negotiations by allowing the commissioner to have a chance to appeal any decision by the arbitrator

I have a feeling the Oklahoma State kid is going to stick in the Steelers backfield. Do you like what you've seen from him in practice?
Zeise
1:50
I haven’t seen enough of practice to have a strong opinion on it
The Real TP Hunter

What does the linebacker situation look like to you, both inside and outside? Is the Robinson kid for real?
Zeise
1:51
I like all four of the starters. I think the depth on the inside is good, depth on the outside is thin
David Bednar

What more do I have to do to get out of here ? This is Baseball Afghanistan. Help me !!!
Zeise

You just keep pitching well and you will eventually pitch your way out of there!

I'm not sure what the purpose of the whole NFL arbitration process is if, at the end, Goodell can ignore the judge's decision and pretty much do whatever he wants. Is that really so much different from where the process was before?
Zeise
1:53
Because now someone else can handle all of the leg work in doing an investigation. And the Union now has an opinion written by an arbitrator hired by the league
The Real TP Hunter

For Pitt to play Penn State in a bowl game, it would have to be huge, as in a national semifinal, or really small, where the organizers are trying to fill the seats. Of course, an expanded playoff could change that.
Zeise
1:54
Penn State is going to fill seats regardless of who their opponent is

Why is it that HCMT has not had to answer for drafting a very small and short (by NFL standards) right guard in order to make him the CENTER for the NFL team with the most CENTERs in the HoF?  Very dumb decision in my opinion.
Zeise
1:55
I think it was a very bad pick unless Greene becomes a good guard. But yes that seems like a swing and miss

Tiger doesn't need $700 million from the new golf league people. How thick is his checkbook?
Zeise

That’s chump change for him!

Voting for Smokey Burgess as best Pirate pinch hitter ever.
reedboat
1:55
Speaking of pinch hitters: anyone remember Gates Brown? He was on a two-year tear at one time as I recall.
Zeise
1:56
We are going deep in the archives for pinch hitter names
Matt

Are you hearing anything with regards to Pitt looking to join another conference?
Zeise
1:57
Nah I think it will settle down until after the season. Then it could all go haywire!!

Everyone had Ben Gamel packed up and on his way out of town. Are you surprised he's still here? Were there just no offers? Could it be that because none of the new outfield prospects have wowed anyone yet they might to try to re-sign him? He's not going to cost a fortune.
Zeise
1:58
The won’t re-sign him. I am shocked he didn’t get traded but then again, it is Ben Gamel so maybe we shouldn’t be shocked
