PM Team FULL Show 2-21-25

Poni is still behind the Matt Stafford to Steelers movement. He thinks too much would need to go right if the team runs it back with Justin Fields. Stafford can elevate the play of everyone else. The scouting combine is next week and it’s usually the unofficial start of tampering in the NFL. If Stafford came into the league throwing 102, what is he throwing now, 96-97? Is a 1st round pick too rich at this point for Stafford?

Open Phone Friday.

TGIF.

Steelers correspondent Mark Kaboly from The Pat McAfee Show joined the show. Mark reacted to the Steelers signing Donald Parham to a one-year deal, so now they have a pair of colossal tight ends. Mark doesn’t think the Steelers will have a solution for anyone calming down George Pickens, no matter who they sign. With the amount of TEs at their disposal, how much do they get work in the pass game? Mark told the guys that his dad was a baker for 30+ years. The guys found their way to talking about people taking bathroom breaks at work.

More w/ Mark – The guys were still caught up on Mark’s dad being a baker and what he would bring home after work. There was a report that there were some Steelers coaches hoping that Russell Wilson got benched by the end of last season, but it never happened.

More w/ Mark – What does Mark think of the comments from Ben Roethlisberger since the season has ended? Mark talked about the fight that took place between Antonio Brown and Ike Taylor about 10 years ago. Poni told the story about being stabbed at a concert. Mark talked about a trip to Ocean City when he put a sumo outfit on. We got into a little chat with Mark about wrestling.

The Pirates signed Andrew Heaney to join their rotation as a veteran lefty. It’s actually a move they should be applauded for a little bit, but let’s not give them an A on the project. Poni pointed out some other lefties that have come to town the last few seasons and how this guy could be an actual asset. You can never have enough pitching, but it’s hard to play every game to win 3-2 or 2-1. It feels like the Pirates are in a division that is winnable, so can they take it?

Is anyone optimistic about the Buccos?

Canada beat the United States, yet again, on the big stage with a 3-2 win in overtime last night of the 4 Nations Face-off championship game. How BIG was this event? It seemed like more people were interested and watching this than any other hockey game this year – or multiple years. Did it get casual fans into it?

A caller said he loved the game so much last night that he passed up sex to watch it.
