Hello and welcome to the Pirates Fan Forum here on DK. Pittsburgh Sports.

Thanks for joining us at a special time here.

We're going to be this way for the next couple weeks, working around King Ben's schedule here a little bit, right?

I'm your host Gary Borgon with me as always, my good friend, Jim Stam.

How are you besides exhausted from hauling hockey equipment around?

Yeah, listen, man, I thought we had this all sorted out.

Then I just had to sit through a deck hockey game where no balance went the right way.

Ben hit the post in the first minute of the game.

And yeah, it never got better after that.

So sadly, Gary, I'm depending on the pirates topic of the pirates to cheer me up.

So I think I'm kind of screwed tonight. I don't know that

we're headed for a cheerful show, my friend. I'm not sure. I mean, I did name it better,

faster. So when I said better, it probably upset you. But when I said faster, you were like,

oh, he gets it. You know, as soon as I thought that that faster word in there, it was, I thought it was better.

VR magic.

Thought it was just going to be better.

And I don't know.

I've heard that I keep hearing that word from somebody.

And it's funny.

It sounds just a tiny bit overused but you you have you have eased my concerns by saying faster i mean it's the greatest word ever i mean and when he said it it would be like oh yeah yeah yeah i have to say that part or they so they understand that i that i that i really

mean it now i have to say the faster part yeah yeah faster you could see it like it would come to him

after he said better then he'd go oh faster yeah yeah it's you know, you throw in a few betters working towards winning.
