I'm not sure if you guys are aware or not.

If I can find it, of course, probably not.

I lost it.

All right, I'll play it from here then. So we almost lost Mike. I don't know if you guys are familiar with this. Mike Francesa? Yeah, like, for real. Really? Almost lost Mike. He had a major issue with his gallbladder. Oh, my God! Right, as he told us on his podcast. It was very much inflamed and very infected.

I guess I had had gallstones for a while, God. Right. As he told us on his podcast. It was very much inflamed and very infected.

I guess I had had gallstones for a while, but they never showed up on any test.

If it had burst, I would have died.

They'd never seen a gallbladder ready to burst like this one was ready to burst.

And I go to the best doctors in the world, And they said they never seen a gallbladder like this, disinfected. They said, I don't know how I got disinfected, but it's that infected. We've got to get it out. And it was close to ending my life. We're back. You didn't say we're back. Oh. Yeah, I mean, I had this happen. It was very painful and they pulled it out. I mean, there's like, there's, there are doctors right now who have taken 15 gallblatters out this morning already before we get to nine o'clock. I mean, it's a very common thing, you know. I mean, that happened to me down in Alabama. Yeah, I know. Wait, wait, they don't have hospitals in Alabama. Uh, who knows? I'll tell you right now. I've told the story too many times about... I thought you go to a place where they give out butt implants? No, I, um... I've told the story too many times. Yeah. What I will say, though, is to the reminder of this whole thing is when I was in,

so I was with the Pitt football team at the time was the BBVA Compass Bowl that we were at

at the old gray lady stadium in Birmingham, Alabama.

And it was Old Miss against Pitt.

You play the senior bowl there or no? That's immobile. That's immobile. So the... What does BBVA stand for? Some bank or something? I don't know back of the day. I have no idea. But anyway, so I had to get medical attention. So I go to the emergency room. But the pit pit doctor that I knew well kept texting over and over again, just get some medicine and get out of there. Get some medicine and get out of there. Get some, because he was afraid they were going to butcher the whole surgery down there. He's like, just get back to Pittsburgh where they have great hospitals, by the way, UPMC and everything else. So that's what I did. I mean, they pumped me full

a bunch of pain killers.

I got back up there and some guy in Pittsburgh pulled it right out nice back to work the next day so you could have died too then I could have died well I think from what Mike was saying I didn't play all of it. He was dealing with it for like three days.

And his wife kept telling him to go see a doctor. He's like, nope, got the Yankees. Well, they got to a point where... It's not like an appendix bursting. You know, I mean, but you got to, once you feel that, I don't know, how do you sit around with that pain? That's so painful. I haven't had it. So I've had kidney stones.

I haven't had gallstones.

So I don't know.

The other really embarrassing part of that old story, pain. That's so painful. I haven't had it. So I've had kidney stones. I haven't had gallstones.

So I don't know. The other really embarrassing part of that whole story for me was we had an 80-year-old

engineer named Mel. And someone called down and said, we need medical help up in the booth.

And the pit doctors ran up and went, Mel! And he turned around and goes, I'm fine. It's him.
