Do you agree with Scheim? Are teams retiring too many numbers? Maria from Watertown: "Scheim... With all due respect, you are a dope!" Scheim: "It should be reserved for very special people"
00:00Yes, I'm I love you. I enjoy listening to you, but with all due respect, your take right now, you are a dope.
00:08That's fine. You believe what you want. I think I think it's silly to retire numbers.
00:12I think Crosby altered a single handedly altered the direction of the Pittsburgh Penguins franchise.
00:22That's great. Give him his own room at the Hall of Fame.
00:24No, no, no. He gets his number in the rafters.
00:27I do agree that in some instances, some of the criteria has been a little bit watered down and there are too many numbers that go up.
00:38You've got the same issue potentially happening at some point with the Boston Bruins when it comes down to conversations about, you know, maybe David Krejci and Tuca Rask.
00:49No brainer with Chara and Bergeron. Those numbers should go up in the rafters.
00:55But honestly, Shine, you are very legitimate with your sports takes most often, very often.
01:03But in this instance, in this instance, my friend, you are totally off the rails.
01:09So that's fine. Patrice Bergeron and Zdeno Char shouldn't have their numbers retired.
01:12Like, it's that simple. Like, it's like there is I think there is.
01:15We need to put out the back signal for two people, TC and Al from Everett.
01:24Because we know how much Al loves the Giants and Bill Parcells.
01:29And we know how much TC loves the Penguins.
01:31So we can listen to them just completely eviscerate Shime on the –
01:37Another good word.
01:38You like that word?
01:39Good job, Wix.
01:40I mean, come on, Shime.
01:41It should be reserved for very special people.
01:44That's it.
01:45How much more special do you get from LT and Sidney Crosby?
01:50I mean, like, I feel like there's no other level to go.
01:53I mean, there is.
01:54There's much – there's higher levels.
01:56There have been better players in the NFL.
01:57You can't name – that's why I said –
01:59Or in hockey.
01:59So, okay, name me a player in the NFL or in hockey that deserves their number retired from their team more than Crosby and Lawrence Till.
02:10I literally have.
02:11Tom Brady.
02:12Other than Brady.
02:13Jerry Rice.
02:17Okay.
02:18Okay.
02:19But he's not –
02:20So now I've named you two.
02:21You asked for what I've given you two.
02:22Jerry Rice.
02:23Name a defensive player.
02:24Jerry Rice and Lawrence Till are on the same level.
02:27I disagree.
02:28Okay, go ahead.
02:29I think Jerry Rice is on a different platform.
02:34Man.
02:35I – listen.
02:37I thought –
02:38It's fine.
02:39Hey, man.
02:39Like I said, believe what you want.
02:41That's fine.
02:41I have my opinion.
02:44I'm clearly wrong because teams do it all across the country, and that's fine.
02:47I just think it should be small.
02:49It should be reserved.
02:50He's the best to ever play his position.
02:53Arguably, yeah.
02:54He might be the best defensive player ever.
02:58Because he's been in the league ever.
02:59– just been in the league ever.
03:04– is he the best coach ever to be in the league ever?
