This is an IHeart podcast.

Good morning football is a production of the NFL in partnership with IHeart Radio.

21 seasons.

CSI couldn't do it.

Gunsmoke couldn't do it.

This guy's been on the air as long as Gray's Anatomy.

It is number eight for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Aaron Rogers.

What's up, dude?

That sounds kind of weird, doesn't it? Doesn't it? Gray's Anatomy is still on, too? Still on. That's impressive. How's life? It's good. I didn't know what to expect, getting here last Tuesday, checking to the dorms, realizing I was sharing a bathroom and a shower. But, man, I missed it. I really did.

I missed. We did this for 14 years in Green Bay. Shout out to St. Norbert's College across town.

And it's fun. You know, there's no excuse for anybody not to hang out. So the night times are

real fun. We get done at a reasonable hour,

unlike back in the day. So we got plenty of time to talk ball in life. And I'm just enjoying being

up here at La Trobe and a new challenge with the Steelers. I'm always amused by the adventures

that you go on. Write the fourth grade essay, what I did on my summer vacation. What do you got?

Oh, man, it was a long spring. I had a lot on my plate in the spring. But once I came out to Pittsburgh

for minicamp, I was excited about the opportunity. So from the day minicamp ended, I mean, Oakmont was in town for the open, you know. Yeah. But I flew home and got right back to working out. I took a little week break to go to Tahoe like I do every year for the American Century Championship. And then other than that, I was just training, working out. I had the guys out for a couple days. Got to show him the ocean and Nobu, which they enjoyed.

But yeah, I was just thinking about this and trying to get ready for this. I didn't know how hot I was going to be. It was freaking hot out here. But it's been fun, man. I like the guys. I love Coach T. I mean, he's everything that you expect that he would be. And then a whole lot more. So I'm enjoying my time.

I just wanted to be fun again.

I want to get back to the love in the game and and it's been a good few days

so far before I get to coach T what made more of an impression on the guys the ocean or nobu

well it was the it was a combination because we were sitting down at Nobu.
