Chris starts by echoing sentiments that Ryan Shazier's health is more important than football (3:14), but also explains why the Shazier injury didn't affect his feelings on Vontaze Burfict (7:22), why JuJu Smith-Schuster and George Iloka's hits should've received the same discipline - taunting be damned (10:51), and the ridiculousness of Rob Gronkowski's suspension. (15:46) Plus, a theory on the one man who could've lent some sanity to all the NFL controversies we've seen in the past few years. (18:32)
Then, Chris fixes the College Football Playoff system (21:36), tells you why you should probably chill on hammering Kris Letang's slow start (29:20), briefly explains what the NHL's renewed interest in Seattle means for Quebec City, Arizona, Florida, and Detroit (31:26), and wonders aloud - again - why the Pirates haven't shown any interest in any full time third base options (36:35).
Finally, is 'Steel' the best name for a Pittsburgh child ever? Chris suggests the top 3 possibilities other than 'Steel,' (39:55), and wraps up telling you which romantic comedy is one of the handful of best holiday movies ever. (46:10)
