Mark Madden has found the next star of Pittsburgh sports radio. The long time Steel City sports talker was on with Pat McAfee on Thursday to discuss the Steelers and the impending sale of the Penguins. During the visit, McAfee introduced Madden to the viral sensation Epitome of Yinzer.
Epitome of Yinzer is a bit of a mysterious entity. It is run by someone who films their father watching Pittsburgh sports and losing his mind. The father’s thick Pittsburgh accent is the real star though, leading to catch phrases like “PICK EM UP & PUT EM DAHN!”.
McAfee played a video of the man yelling about Matt Canada’s red zone play calling for the Steelers.
“LOOK AT THE FACE ON THIS GUY!” he starts. “You got Naj(ee Harris) and you’ve got Rudolph throwin’ in the f***ing pouring down rain! I’m serious! Third down and and he’s gone frickin’ throw it again!”
“He’s the next number one radio talk host in Pittsburgh,” Madden declares.
Pat McAfee pointed out that he has heard Mark Madden make the same criticisms of Matt Canada and the Steelers offense on his show on 105.9 The X.
“Oh yeah,” Madden responded. “Just because it’s cliched and Yinzer-y doesn’t mean it’s not true.”
