Hiles confident Keller is on the move

Pirates insider Noah Hiles from the PG joined the show. Noah thinks the Pirates front office to make the team better in 2026 as they approach the trade deadline. How aggressive will Ben Cherington be? Noah still firmly believes Mitch Keller will be on the move and listed 4 teams of interest. Noah anticipates a trade for Keller going down to the deadline, possibly in the final hour. Noah said the Pirates want to acquire guys that can be everyday players for them immediately. How many other Buccos...

Hour 3 - Steelers report to training camp tomorrow, Donny Football Debrief

The Steelers report to training camp tomorrow. Mullsy says that both 2021 and 2019 were very interesting years, at least going into them. The end of 2020 was the beginning of the end for the Ben era. The Steelers track record of QBs post-Ben have not been good, and we’re already on QB number 6. Mullsy says he would sign up for a game-losing pick in the AFC Championship. Mullsy thinks that this is the most interesting Steelers season (heading in) since 2019. He also says that if Aaron Rodgers is ...

Donny Football Debrief. Phillip Rivers retired as a charger, Jimmy Graham retired, Tyrann Mathieu retired. Mathieu’s retirement makes Mullsy feel old. Is Philip Rivers a better QB all time than Matt Ryan or Eli Manning?

Hour 2 - ESPN ranks Steelers' roster, Greg Brown joins the show

ESPN ranked all 32 NFL rosters, ranking the Steelers at 19. Mullsy doesn’t have an issue with this ranking. PFF ranking Myles Garrett as the best player in football was dumb. The AFC is stronger than the NFC, which is another issue for the Steelers. The Steelers have fumbled the quarterback position ever since Ben Roethlisberger retired. Mullsy says that TJ Watt and Cam Heyward should be Hall of Fame locks. This roster would be ranked higher than 19 if QB wasn’t weighted so heavily. Mullsy menti...

Greg Brown joins the show

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg was very happy for Dan Zangrilli after he called the weekend series against the White Sox, and said that he didn’t need any advice. Brown also said that Skenes performance last night looked like the “definition of a stopper”. Greg says that the Pirates aren’t going to rebuild, and that they’re going to try to win next year. He also says that he doesn’t think that Ben Cherington will make moves to try and save his job.

HOUR 1 - Skenes shuts down Tigers, RIP Ozzy, HOCKEY TALK!

Paul Skenes shoving again last night. This time it came against the best team in the American League, the Detroit Tigers. 6 innings of shut out baseball and the bullpen closed it out to win the game, 3-0. Even though it seems like the ending is inevitable with Skenes, should we appreciate every start he makes here? Ozzy Osbourne has passed away. We took some calls on the Buccos. HOCKEY TALK! How much would hockey history change if the first round was Best-of-5 instead of a 7-game series? It woul...

HOCKEY TALK!

HOCKEY TALK! How much would hockey history change if the first round was Best-of-5 instead of a 7-game series? It would have impacted a couple Penguins Stanley Cup wins.

Cherington's share in Pirates mess

Who is at the top of your frustrations list when it comes to the Pirates? It feels like Ben Cherington is even more at fault than the owner because the money that is spent is spent poorly. What if he made another mistake and drafted Dylan Crews (like Mullsy wanted) instead of Paul Skenes? Donny defended Neal Huntington for what he accomplished by the 6th year of his tenure, which was 2013. It’s staggering that Cherington got the Skenes draft pick correct, but has been so bad at everything else.

Hour 3 - Weekend Review, Donny Football Debrief

Mullsy says that TJ Watt doesn’t get the respect nationally that he should. PFF put out their top 50 players going into the 2025 season, and had Myles Garrett at 1 and TJ Watt at 10. Mullsy and Donny agree that Garrett being at 1 is dumb. The guys discuss SI’s all quarter-century team. Mullsy thinks it’s ridiculous that Myles Garrett was at 1 on PFF’s top players going into 2025.

The guys discuss the new Steelers uniforms. Mullsy thinks that the khaki colored pants are fine and that the uniforms would have looked worse if the pants were black. Mullsy and Donny agree that the jerseys are better than the bumblebee jerseys.

PFF is disrespecting TJ Watt

Hour 2 - Ben Cherington deadline talk, Weekend Review

Ben Cherington says that he is constantly on the phone, regarding the deadline. Some random bogus MLB account on twitter said that Cherington would be dumped today. Mullsy says that the Pirates division competition year by year is not very tough, yet they almost never compete. Mullsy thinks that the pirates need to trade Mitch Keller for a “real bat”. Why is it taking Nutting so long to dump Cherington? Mullsy hosts “Poni Trivia” as a means of giving away tickets to the Pony League World Series....

HOUR 1 - Embarrassing weekend at PNC Park, Calls, Dan Zangrilli

An embarrassing weekend at PNC Park with the Pirates being swept by the White Sox by a combined score of 27-7. The White Sox went into the series as the second-worst team in baseball by record. The Pirates didn’t look like they belonged on the same field. After the 6-game win streak, the Pirates have won just 1 of their last 10 games. And what happened to this team playing harder for Don Kelly? The Paul Skenes draft pick now looks like a curse because of how much they have fumbled the situation....

Dan Zangrilli recaps ugly weekend at PNC

Pirates pre-post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. Dan got to handle the radio play-by-play duties this weekend in-place of Joe Block, even though it lacked excitement overall. Dan said he will hop into the booth for another series later this season. Dan recapped the horrible weekend at the ballpark. Has this season been as bad as some ugly seasons of the past? The guys looked at that 2010 time versus now.

HOUR 3 - Mark Kaboly

Steelers correspondent Mark Kaboly from The Pat McAfee Show joined the show. Mark defended his take that the Steelers had a ‘perfect’ offseason. Mark said they, mostly, accomplished everything they wanted to do. Mark gave his reaction to the TJ Watt signing and how the Steelers avoided 4-5 guaranteed years. Mark looked at this deal versus the one Myles Garrett received from the Browns. Mark thinks the Steelers can get ahead of things this season with Watt, even though he doesn’t think a holdout ...

Hour 2 - Steelers offseason, Donny Football Debrief

Mark Kaboly said that the Steelers had the “perfect offseason”, to which Mullsy disagrees. Mullsy says the offseason can’t be perfect if the Vegas win total of 8.5 hasn’t moved at all. If Aaron Rodgers was still MVP caliber, he would not have been available for cheap. A lot of things have to go right for the Steelers to be “significantly better”. Poni was upset that he didn’t hear from his sources about the TJ extension before it was announced. Mullsy thinks the Steelers QB play will be better t...
