What was the significance of James Harrison's pick-6 in Super Bowl history?
it's good one of those songs you play and use it as cardiovascular workout you can get in yes craig added in some new music for all the shows good this is one of them he made the choice or could we make choices as well i think that's tbd we're changing some things up in the in the in the system to be able to correspond with a couple of changes
I have some of them. We'll get to that in a bit. Wonderful. Just had a nice conversation with Tyler Kennedy about the Penguins and where they are. Tonight, Conor Bedard is in town. Austin, this guy is a magician sometimes on the ice. He's really good. He can do a lot of stuff. He doesn't have enough around him to make them, I think, a legitimate playoff contender. But they're building that way, but it takes a while. And I think because he is smaller in stature, he's been physically run into quite a bit by design by other teams over the years. But when he's healthy and he'll be there tonight, I'm looking forward to watching him play.
Yeah, they've tried to beat him up a little bit. But I remember when the Blackhawks came here a couple years ago and it was that point that kept the Penguins out of the playoffs when they thought potentially they lost out on their opportunity of Bedard and then they were still able to get him. I find that still to be ironic every time the Blackhawks and Bedard come back. Yeah, the Blackhawks are proof in the pudding that even though you can be bad for a while and get high picks and you can draft a star that is a once in every five year type of player, that it still takes a decent amount of time to be able to be good. Yeah. And Chicago is kind of the proof of that. Celebrini as well with the Sharks, stuff like that.
It's not going to work overnight unless you have a very good front office that pushes all the right buttons.
It does take time, and you're right. Even if you get the elite players, Celebrini's still a teenager, and he's still putting up the kind of numbers that you don't see much over time with teenagers unless you're talking about Crosby, Lemieux, or Gretzky or people like that. Bob, you're selfish. Joe, we had your picture up and you weren't there. And I was ready to find a cardboard cutout of you, but I only have one of me. And I didn't want to put me up.
Couldn't limits have filled in with an ad and then you guys wait for me? We do have a Joe Starkey.
I got to use that when he's not here.
Where were you? I got into a talk with Donnie back there. Okay. About two topics. And I'm sorry to interrupt my show. There it is. There's the fat head right behind me. Look at that on our YouTube channel.
Look at the young Joe.
It was the most underrated good Super Bowl of all time, Bob. Was what in your humble opinion?
The most underrated good.
Underrated good. You know what it was for me? And I think this was a great Super Bowl. And I was a big Rams fan as a kid. Rams-Steelers was a great game. It was.
It didn't come down to like the last second drive, but it was great.
Yeah.
How did Mike Tomlin prepare the Steelers for interceptions?
Yeah, going back to those days, I've been thinking more recently of the ones, and some of them have been not very good.
Carolina, New England, we came up with.
Was it Rams-Patriots that went down to the final play? Twice Rams-Patriots went down. Not to the final, but. Seahawks-Patriots, the one where Marshawn was ignored. Oh, that was a great one.
That was a fantastic game.
I really think the Steeler game with Arizona and Tampa. Because of all the iconic plays that you saw in that game. I mean, that went down to the very end. It took an amazing effort by Ben Roethlisberger as quarterback to go 90 yards, which is what he had to do after that holding call, to win the game. And you couldn't get a – you had to score. So –
And it almost came down to a Hail Mary to Larry Fitzgerald with everything else that happened. I remember Paul Amalo saying he was scared to death he was going to have to jump up in the end zone against Fitzgerald. But didn't Lamar Woodley end it with a sack? Am I remembering that right?
Yes, that's correct. So that was a great game.
