Opening Monologue - We've got quite the situation in Cleveland, as head coach Kevin Stefanski has tested positive for Covid and will miss the game Sunday. Mark talks about that and the Special Teams coach who is replacing him, who is an absolute scumbag btw and you all will agree once you hear what he once said, and how the Steelers should slaughter the Browns Sunday and not feel bad about it one little bit. Mark gets back into the NHL and sponsorships on helmets and being infused into new places around the sport and how it's not a big deal, and even a positive in many ways. He also gets into Pens practice from today.


Mark says there's just no way they will delay this football game. He gets into Kevin Dotson making an all rookie team, he might already be the Steelers best O lineman.

Jonathan Bombulie of the Trib joins the show next to get into Penguins talk as camp is fully underway. They discuss if the short camp is a bad thing for the Pens, The Kapanen abscense, the Power Play and the play of the stars, and JB poses an interesting thought on who he would like to see in Kapanen's place on the top line before he can get back from Finland.

THE LIST - The Penguins have added a sponsor logo to the side of their helmets for this season, and the marks out there are up in arms about corporate sponsorship destroying the sanctity of their sport and team.
Mark takes some calls on the PPG logo on the side of the helmet and about the Steelers potentially implementing the Dobbs package in a game that counts for something.

We find out the shocking news that Tanya Roberts, who we previously thought to have passed as we payed respects in both hours of the show so far, is actually still ALIVE!! What a day. Mark goes through his questions of the day when it comes to the Steelers, including using the Dobbs package more often, and how to help the running game for Cleveland.

Mike DeFabo joins Double M to get some hockey talk started here on the show as today was the opening of Penguins training camp. They talk about Kapanen being stuck in Finland and missing the start of Penguins camp, Bryan Rust's placement on the PP, what the PP needs to do for this team to be successful, if the Pens are as fast as they hope they are, and if the Penguins are a lock to make it to the playoffs.
