tongue tied there. Our Twitter informations at Tribute South Canadiambling is behind the scenes. Also coming up later this summer, the Motor City Madmouse Show will be debuting on the Eagle Accord Media Studios and voc or tom Florida owned by doctor Edwin Hernandez. Will keep your posted the Eagle Corp. It's a technology based company. And also I am writing a book and that's adjusting the new media where and I'm working diligently and hopefully get it on the next month or so.
With that said, okay, we're gonna let Jeremy bull Ray take over the show. Jeremy have in it all right. Our first topic tonight, Mike Tomlin admitted to reporters he's getting a little fit as far as I head coaches with his time in the league, and it could be a couple of things. But I'm going to defer to Ralph right here and get his opinion on Mike Tomlin. Well, you know what, Jeremy and George and Scott. You know, Mike Tomlin has been a coach for a long time.
He's been around since two thousand and seven. You know, he has one of the longest ten years in the NFL as a head coach other than Bill Belichick probably, So what I'm saying is it's time for Mike Tomlin step away. Bill Carr stepped away, went into broadcasting. Tomlin will probably do the same thing. He has friends in high places, Tony Dungee and all that. So you know, if he goes away, that's fine. The Steelers
will come up with a new coach. You know, they need to get I think they need a new a new flavor of a coach, and it's time for a change, I think. I know Mike Tomlin has done well in the eyes of most people, but in the eyes of some people in Pittsburgh, he hasn't won enough Super Bowls or championships to justify that. And of course Bill Kauer lost a lot of AFC championship games as well. But
Tomlin his record speaks for itself. I mean, I can't complain about that, but right now he doesn't have an assistant coaching staff that I feel is capable of, you know, leading his team to a championship. And some of the guys he has are guys that are, you know, second tier assistant coaches and not top notch like he's had before. And he had a few of them and he ran them out. You know, he had Mike Munchak, he had Bruce Arians and he ran them out. And he had
Todd Haley. Thought Haley's a good coach, even though he's a miserable jerk, but he's a you know, he's a good he he's a good assistant coach. So I mean, you know, and he ran out a lot of great coaches and now he's got a bunch of yes men, and we're gonna see where it goes from here. George, Yeah, I was surprised when I found out. I didn't think he was that young. He's only fifty one years old. Still, he's done a terrific job with the Steelers.
But you're right, you brought up a good point, Ralph. You know, they won the one championship super Bowl and then they faced a think Green Bay two years later, but they lost to the Backers. And other than that, it's losing wildcard game, losing in the first round, losing you know, the divisional round, whatever loss, after a loss, You're right, they he has not produced. He's produced a winning product, but not a winning playoff product. And I certainly can understand the Steeler fans being
a little bit concerned. We had a guy in Detroit, Jim Caldwell, who they were never happy with his performance, even though he was a couple of games above five hundred two or three games about five hundred, he had a much shorter leash. Tomlin has gotten a lot longer leash obviously. Oh
okay with Rooneys, of course he has. All this is saying, you're close to the situation, Rolf. I respect your opinion, and I know that Mike's a great guy, but you're right, I think it is time for the Steelers to move on. Yes, it is, and it's getting to that point right now. We have certain players that keep fooling around on
social media that he doesn't control. He's got a you know, the ab situation, an Tonio Brown, the Juju Smith Schusters situation, and then you know, finally they had to get rid of Chase Claypool, you know, because and admitted they were wrong for drafting him when they did. But it was nice because we the trade we got with Chicago. We ended up with Joey Porter junior like a first round pick, and you know, so that that came out to be okay. I liked the new front office with Omar
Kahn and Andy Wydell from the Philly Eagles. Andy is from this area. He grew up in Pittsburgh and he's happy to be back. Steelers paid him a lot of money to bring him here. He was an assistant GEM and recruiting coordinator and whatnot with Philly. And you know, I talked to some people and friends of mine and Philly close to the situation and they said, we got a gem and Andy Whidell. All right, Scott, what do you what do you think about the situation? Well, he always hates to
see a guy like Mike Thomlin go. He's his ninest abilities. He's really never had a losing season and he makes a lot out of nothing, so he hates to see him go. But it's inevitable. A change could be an order. Yeah, yeah, exactly, Scot. I agree with you on that too. I think we all agree that changes in order. Jeremy, I'm sorry, I don't mean to interrupt you if you were trying to talk. Yeah, we gotta kind of keep it rolling because we got top
to get through. Yeah, but uh, my opinion is Mike Tomlin has been one of the best coaches in the regular season for you guys, a lot like Caldwell, Garry Moeller and now the way Dan Campbell is turning around Detroit, You're you're seeing that type of thing with Mike tom and his entire time there. And that's where it eludes me on why some of the fans want them gone, because it's not always greener on the other side, That's all I got to say, because you could end up with like a Matt
Patrasha era. Okay, and h let's get into Oh and there is smoking dad coming in saying hello gentlemen. Yep, that's my dad there and probably where I learned out to smoke. But anyways, well, Sat, Jared's just seeing just everybody know that Jeremy's and jack of all trades. Okay. All I'm doing tonight is posting the comments and you get to read them. How is that so? No problem? Uh? Second topic, I wanted to ask you Raff personally, what news do you hear coming out of camp?
What's good, what's bad? Has there been injury concerns any of that at this moment. No injuries today. They have what they call the gassers. Uh. You know, they make them run all over the place for you know, a day or whatever, and you know it's like an obstacle course. Now, I know today Kenny Pickett started off his first play with a long past down field to George Pickens. So I do know that Patrick Peterson came up with a couple of plays. We're going into camp here with
a lot of battles. We have battles on the offensive line. We have battles at the cornerback position. In the defense. We have battles all over and across every position. This year, the front office has brought in some great free agents and I think they the Steelers had a wonderful draft this year. And you know, they brought in some guys that can compete, and they wanted to get meaner, they wanted to get faster, and they wanted to get better at both lines of scrimmage. And they did that with both
the draft and the free agency. Now, let's see if it can be coached to win. So there we are. So what do you think about what you just heard there, George, Well, you know, I the one thing that stands out, Jeremy, I think in Ralph and Scott competition that's not all bad, is it. You've got a competition for the positions that you've described, and any training camp, if it's worth its weight in gold, it's always fun to watch and observe the competition going on for starting
positions, for backup positions, for kickers, whatever it is. Sometimes even for quarterback, but not very often a backup quarterbacks a lot. But but yeah, Ralph, I mean, I think when your observation was good, because competition is good, and the Steelers have done some work on the off season. Detroit did a lot of work on the off season improving their defense. And now you've got a situation where hey, let's just we we on
the outside say, let's have fun. But I know it's all work for those guys, and it's a terrific opportunity for some kid, especially some of the unknowns, the unheralds, to work their way into the starting rotation or at least in a backup position. So that's what I'm hearing. That sounds good. I mean if you're if you're a Steelers fan. Right, well, I got one more thing to add here. I think personally in the
NFL, we have the best three quarterbacks in the league right now. We have Kenny Pickett, we have Mitch Trubisky, and now we resigned to Mason Rudolph. We have three good, experienced quarterbacks, so if anybody goes down, somebody can play. And then we got this Tanner Morgan that we brought in as an undrafted free agent from Minnesota Golden Gophers, and he's supposed to be a reasonably decent quarterback. Then get drafted. But you know what,
you know, we brought him in. He's going to be on a practice squad. I think that it's going to work perfect for the quarterback situation. All right, Scott, what do you think about what you all you heard? Well, the only thing I'll say is roll hit it on the head. When you have three good quarterbacks like that, they're in a much better position than most teams. We're looking to have two. And everybody at this time of the year is always looking to find that veteran signal color. If
you can get. So I'm with you all the way, Ralph, thank you and smoking Dad just put in a mentor and he says, yea opinion. I think Pickett is going to be a good one. The only thing that concerns me is the only problem he had a little bit in college was the same thing that Goff had with his smaller hands. And that's why he wears two gloves. He's the new Teddy two gloves. You know. It's because of that small hand. He needs the extra grip on the football.
Say what you want, say what you want. But that does lead to more fumbles, which he did struggle with at times in college. Yes he did, yes, yeah, I pardon me. Yeah. So well, other than that, I think Kenny Pickett is a smart QB. I think he's a good pocket pad that knows how to move the pocket. Rather than he doesn't read the run, he reads and then runs if he has to. And I think that's a great thing because I think that is where the
athletic athletic quarterback needs to go to. Well, he has a lot of guts, Jeremy. I mean, I mean I watched him when he first played in the Jets game. I mean we would have lost that game by a ton, and he came in and scored points and he was gutsy, ran ran the ball when he had to, like you said, and everything else. That's what I like about him. He's a gutsy kid. He's not afraid to make the play he needs to make, and he'll do it
himself if he asked to. And you know, any team would want a quarterback like that is kind of the same level of athleticism as Kenny Picktt. His versus Mitch ter Bisky and Mason Rudolf. Mason Rudolf is tough. Uh, Mitch ter Bisky's tough, as you know, because he played for Chicago forever and you have to be tough to play for that team with their old line. But uh, let's go on to the next one. Well, we'll go ahead, Jeremy, We'll go ahead. What was the good news?
I was gonna say. The good news is mister Bisky had an opportunity to have a year under Brian de Bow up in Buffalo, so you know, he was as a backup quarterback and then he backed up Josh Allen up there, so you know, he got he got to have that experience as well, so that's that's the goodness. Mind to bow is a great offensive mind great okay, and let's roll on to the next topic, which is the Pittsburgh Pirates started off so hot and it seems like they fell back to
earth almost as fast as they started off. What happened, Well, I'll tell you what happened. The manager Derek Sheldon. Some of his decisions have been horrible. Horrible lineups, horrible taking pictures out in the third inning. Uh, you know after they score one run, getting you know, pulling, pulling the switch too quick on pictures. Horrible bullpen. Uh. It's just been a mega problem. Jeremy injuries. Uh, you know Charlie Keith
Brian Hayes almost said Charlie Hayes, that's his son. But Kei Brian Hayes hurt. H He's now doing his rehab stint. Uh. Jim and Troy was hurt has been hurt since April. He just came back. You know. We've had some guys down, uh, you know, or Neil Cruise. You are starting shortstops, so injuries is included in that. Vince Velasquez a great starting pitcher we had, he was he was doing real well, a good veteran presence, and then all of a sudden he got hurt and
he had to bring rookies up from the miners. You know, I don't have problem with rookies. I don't have a problem with draft picks. I have a problem with their experience. And you know, if they don't, it's it's a whole different Uh. You know, It's like cooking macaroni and cheese and making a gourmet dinner. You know what I mean. You know your macaroni and cheese and the minor leagues, but then you come to the majors, you're supposed to be a gourmet dinner. And if that's and that's
not the case. And these kids got to learn. But it's sad that the pirates waved the white flag after the All Star Game, and and they're telling everyone they did, and I know they did because you can see they did. And uh, you know, now they're bringing up all these guys, and I don't have a problem with that. These young guys need to learn. But I think that the Carlos Santana trade today, I think it
was awful. I've been making jokes all day that they got this eighteen year old shorts stop and two one and fifteen pitchers in a janitor because they're good at making them kind of trade. I mean, yeah, I like it. Okay, George, what do you think about what happened with the virus there? Boy, I'll tell you what. That's a good one. That's a good lie, Ralph. That that sounds like our friend, the former
GM Alavila would make that kind of trade. All all getting aside a lot of those blunders, as you know, when Detroit gave away so much of its rich talent. But I understand what you're saying. The young players. There's too many of them that are being rushed up to the major leagues too quickly nowadays. We've seen it in Detroit with a fellow named Spencer Charcoal send the first baseman, um, you know, and a lot of injuries. I know these kids are getting injured a lot. A lot of the things
that you hit on, Ralph, are exactly what's happening in Detroit. The only thing I would say differently is AJ hints if anything, he leaves those starters in too long. Example today manning seven runs. Really, I mean we knew the second game of the double header they lost both. By the way, to our listeners, the Tigers took a dive today. They lost, well, they lost all three games to the Angels at home. All I'm saying is that, yeah, a lot of the things that you mentioned
are the same kind of things that are happening here in Detroit. They haven't waived the white flag yet, but off the AAR I was telling you guys, I think it is going to happen now after they lost three in a row. We'll see how they do down in Miami. Scott and Candy. I know we're going to cover that series and that should be fun time. Cabrera is going to be honored as he deserves and that should be. But but I think after that, well, after that, obviously, the trading
deadline is too you know, midnight on Monday night. So I you know, I know what you're going through, Ralph, But you're absolutely right. I mean, your team has struggled for years and years, and there was that glimmer of hope at the beginning of the season for the Pirate. For the Pirates, I was happy for him. I've always liked your franchise. It's always been a good, good, good franchise. And yeah, But anyways, to answer your question, Jeremy, yeah, I like the point
that Ralph brought up. Well, one other thing I want to bring up. I'm very disappointed in the front office Ben Charrington. I thought, I mean, I know what he did in Boston, he brought them up from nothing into the World Series, and and and I thought he was going to do and he laid the law down on Bob Nutting. Look, I'm not
taking this job if you're going to be a ballbuster. And that's and then he told Nutting, I'm not taking this job, and Nutting said, I'll stay behind the only time you need to come and see me is for money. And Bob Nutting has paid out to keep Brian Hayes, Brian Reynolds. He signed some guys so to big contracts, so I can't say he hasn't done anything Nutting. It's Ben Charrington. I don't know where he got this
trade out today. This is another Neil Huntington trade. And Neil Huntington was good at making these bone headed trades, you know, trading guys and get nothing for it. But I don't know anything about this eighteen year old shortstop we got and what they're gonna put him in there and play him because O'Neill cruise is still hurt. I don't know. I mean, I just don't know what they're gonna do. But I added the one in fifteen Pictures, I added that was a joke. So Scott, well, how do you
feel about how Ralph described the Pittsburgh situation. Well, the bottom line is it's a very n The trade that they made Carlo Santana is a very unpopular trade. It goes back to fire sale territory, Pittsburgh one on one. I mean, that's a It's like, the only thing I want to know about Ralph is what about Andrew McCutchen. Has he been talked about me and moved or not? Yes, there's rumors going around that he's gonna be moved, but the rumors are not true. A Cutcheon has to make that decision.
He doesn't want to go. His family's here. He likes Pittsburgh. He's not even worried about winning a World Series. He just wants to stay here, finish his career here. He's been he's been content with that. People have been saying all this stuff about all he wants to be trade Texas wants him. I heard he's not even that they're not even thinking about trading on as we don't go. Ye, she's on the right end of the trade deadline, not the wrong hand. Yeah, let's not forget. Eric
Dalton is a good friend of mine. We met at Family fun Fest face to face last year and he said that there's no Family fun Fest because he doesn't get to see my dad, which is one of his favorite He calls him Dad too. Right that that being said, I feel your pain. But this rebuild was partially before ala Vila got here because of what Dave Dombrowski did to get everybody on the roster to try and shoot for a world series before mister LX died. He emptied our prospectal, just wiped it out.
Yeah, trading away for everybody, and then we had all those bloated contracts and Alavila got stuck trying to make something out of nothing with no money to spend under the luxury tax because Chris Ellix wants mister Illis said, we're not spending that much money. There was that situation. You're absolutely right, So it's partially Elavila's fault, but I blame it more on Dave Dombrowski emptying out our prospect pool. Well, Dave Dombrowski, Jeremy, he's been a dut
everywhere he's gone. He except for the Marlins, I mean, you know, and I mean team he put together for Jim Leland. I could I could have managed that team, Scott in the whole panel here we gaul could have managed that team. Well, he wanted Boston too, Ralph. Yeah, now you can make a case that there wasn't his team either because he was already there. But you got to give him credit for winning at the Red Sox, right, yeah, oh yeah, But a lot of places
he's been, George, he's been a dutt. I mean, he really hasn't done. And the Pirates were gonna hire him when they when they needed a GM they were yes, yes, yeah, I heard that too. So rolling on My opinion is we feel your pain. Yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only one or the Jokelin as I call him, the chokelin Ais. No, the chokland A's have been the chokland A's for a long
time. But there for a minute. There for a minute. From the late eighties through the nineties, they were one of the top franchises when they had the Basch Brothers, when they had all of that going on, it was such agree don't let me interject here, Eric Dalton. Good for you, Jeremy. I love your expanding horizon to a baseball I know you're a sports fan. Also, let me add to that, Eric that Jeremy Ballreich will be on next week's edition of one hundred eighty six Baseball Talk. I
believe we're gonna be doing that one on Tuesday night at nine o'clock. To anyone we're moving next week will be inside the Piskin. I believe that will be to next Thursday night of her Ralph's show. So okay, well, I'm glad you brought that out. Very thanks for putting it up there. Thank you. That being said, it's Paul Skens the savior for Pittsburgh.
What do you think, Ralph? Yeah, I think Paul Skeins is the savior if they don't keep him in the minors for ten years, okay, I mean if they bring him up maybe if he's developed enough next year or in the year after that. I have no problem with Paul Skeins, but I have a problem when you draft a guy like that, and you keep them in the minors for six or seven or eight or ten years and then you bring him up and then he's wasted. Okay, they need to bring
him up as fast as possible. They need to get him moving and get him up here. He is the savior. I think he's another Randy Johnson. He's a tall guy. He can pitch hard, and I like him, and it was a good pick. We picked a bunch of pictures and with arms in this draft. And you know, I believe that Paul Skens is for real. Yea, But but it depends on what the pirates do with them. I mean, if they keep him down there for too long and then bring him up, you know it's not gonna work. They're gonna
have to bring him up. I say they bring him up after three seasons to see if he's got any injury concerns. This, Eric, I appreciate the kind of words. Please, Eric, subscribe to the Selfwork Tribute and YouTube channel and you'll get all the updates when Jeremy's on, which seems like it's all the time anyway, So please get to subscribe button Selfword Tribute. Eric can go from there well you can laugh. Jeremy's gonna heck my job. No, I'm just laughing because it's great to know. You know,
Jeremy is a good guy on here. All I got to say is, I've been on the Soul Florida Tribute Channel this summer more than I've been on my channel. Well, you know what, I don't want to sound like I'm cocky with what little boys I have. I recruit losers anyway, So I'll leave it at that. I know that. Hey, I'll take that, you get it. But what do you think about one picture is not
going to save your franchise, Ralph? Number one and number two, No, they're not going to keep him in the minors all those years that you said, come on now, Ralph. You know that. But I mean, I'm don't exaggerate. They're not going to keep them there that long. And I'll give you another thing, Ralph. Do you ever hear of Casey Miyes, You hear Matt Manning? Yeah, okay, you know what we've gone through here in Detroit. Yeah, I'm just telling you these pictures are
not always diamonds in the rough. Sometimes they have rubber arms or whatever causes them pain. All I'm saying is and I know you guys got a great guy there, and the fact that he played in college I think is a plus because you know a lot of teams go for the high school kids, and you're right, those take longer to get developed. But no, you got a good guy. I mean, this kid. They give him over nine million ralph. Yeah, they get nine million dollars. Yeah, Yeah,
that's a lot of money. And I know what you're saying, though, I just hope that I hope that. Again, I've said it before, you don't want to rush these kids, but I do agree that you don't want to take too long either. Pictures. You can never have enough pitching, and that was one of the things that Tigers obviously, when you talk about picking up the pieces from Dombrowski, that they learned the hardware even though they took all these pictures, so many of them. I've already had
Tommy John surgery. It's it's a shame, but I wish him the best of luck, and I wish your franchise too. Yeah. It's a mix of everything. It's pitching and fielding and everything else. It's it's not all just pitching, you know, So if if we can get him some help, I think it'll be okay, Yo, what what what's the age old edage hitting his timing and pitching his upsetting timing? Yeah, there you go. Yeah, I know because I played that sport. There you go.
I played literal leagues as far as I went. Oh, I want Jeremy's face on a pillowcase. Jeez. So Eric says that I think you made a mistake. Michael Flumer is your perfect example, George. Eric Dalton said, and I apologize. You're right, Eric, I forgot about Michael former and anyway, but they put him into a situation now, which was nice, good for him because they moved Former, as you know, into the
relief for all. But then of course the Tigers let him walk, let him go, right, Yeah, we just let a couple of guys go. Um we let h Crowe go, Will Crow. He was a good starting pitcher, Derek Sheldon when he took over and put him in the bullpen, and he stunk, but he was a good starting pitcher. Yeah. The one that was Craig Kemball, your closer. That guy was amazing and
he's still doing good now, this many years after being in Pittsburgh. They should have resigned him because you got a guy anytime you got a three game lead and can come in in the eighth inning and close the game out, you keep those guys. I have a question for you guys for Detroit. Is Chris Archer still with you? Guys? I heard he was with Detroit for a little while. Is that true? Not for like a blink of
an eye? And he didn't think he made it past spring training or a month after because he just yeah, I haven't heard, no, yeah, okay, Yeah, he didn't do well here, And that was a trade Huntington wanted to make to please the fans, because the fans were looking for a nice trade to get somebody in here. And we got rid of uh Tyler Glass now, who actually is a nice a really good picture with Tampa
Bay. And then we got rid of um that Austin Meadows, who became an All Star in an idfield, so you know, and then we decided to keep the couple guys that didn't work out. Yeah, well you heard what happened in Meadows, didn't you. Yeah? Yeah, with the Tigers, Yeah, two years and I row he's been on the um, you know, Yeah, yeah, you know, the mental illness. Yeah, and then we just got rid of a guy, Travis Swaggerty. He was one of our number one picks. We just got rid of him. But
his wife has cancer. He was gonna get out of baseball anyway. His wife's got cancer. Chack cool, former part with Washington, just got out of baseball. His wife's sick. So you know, got some guys who have been doing that. So all right, Canis Devlin says, a great show, Thank you very much, Candy much Candy, and we you know, we were going to do it as a topic, but Ralph already gave his opinion on that trade. Yeah, so you kind of beat us to
the punchline. Yeah. Sometimes his Fitford stuffy. Listen, we're bringing him in easy. It doesn't get this easy, Ralph. Every week you only get a partying shot under your pitchfork stuff. But tonight because yours truly his horse okay, doesn't have much of a voice, although Jeremy doing a dynamite job he's doing at the Topics, and Jeremy wanted to bring you in easy with your pis. So you've got five parting shots in one show. Although
we'll still let you have one more next thank you. That being said, I want to say thank you to Ralph for coming in and being a part of the fire up show because going forward, it isn't going to be easy. We're gonna have much hardball topics instead of these softball ones for you. These I just I just looked at the headlines that were out there and I put Pittsburgh sports headlines and I came up with three topics. That's all I did. It may not be the greatest, but you know what, they're
current and it's stuff to talk about. That is you're right, absolutely right, all right. And I just wanted to add one thing on that Santana thing. You know my question, No, Ralph, he has bounced around the last several years. When you look, he's you know, been in very different teams Cleveland, Kansas City and in Pittsburgh and now Milwaukee. I mean, he doesn't have any bad clubhouse stuff going on, does he. I don't he does. He's he's a leader. From what I understand.
He hustles, he's a good defensive first baseman. I've seen him make some plays that I haven't seen any of our first basemen making a long time. So I mean you know. I mean, he his bat was a little I mean he was only bat in two thirty six, so, I mean, but still he had eleven homers. I mean, you know, and the problem with the parts two they strike out too much. They lead the league in strikeouts a striking out at bat and they lead the league and leave
him in on base. They've done that for years. Sounds like the only thing I got to say about that trade is when did Carlos Santana quit playing guitar? He decided to quit playing guitar and prick up a bat. There you go, because with the guitar he bats a thousand thousand. With the baseball bat six Yeah, but you're right, and Candy's right. You may have just I think you guys me had just handed Milwaukee the division title because obviously he's gonna go there, and I mean, yeah, who different way
of playing. Yeah, he's gonna yeah, he's gonna do well there. Yeah, and they're playing very well. Kaite kitty, Yeah, yeah, they have that. I need to give to you a view my drink, George, because you look thirsty. I still have some large There you go, he still got his water. Yeah, absolutely, there you go. Thank you very much. I want to thank everybody for being so active in the chat. We got kite Kitty, we got excit Eric Dalton, smoking Dad, and of a slew of others that's popped in and out. Lyons
nineteen sixty I believe was in there too, don't forget guys. Go over to the South Florida Tribune channel subscribe, yes, and have a great night. This has been Fire Up. That's Scott Morgan Roth. Tell everybody where they can find you. Scott. All right, Jeremy, I got news for you. This guy did an unbelievable job being the lead man today. So as if you needed more responsibilities, be careful what you ask for a ball rake, Oh, I feel very comfortable, not that I ever did,
