The Pomp And Joe Show

Do fans want Malkin back? Does he deserve a farewell tour? He led the Pens in points per game this season. Why don't some view Malkin's career similarly to Crosby's? Callers give their take on if they want Malkin back. A caller with a name that seems like a prank calls in and it's not a prank. Will Sid sign an extension?  Joe is curious about AI. The Limitless Express with Sean - Don Kelly suspended, the Steelers mocked to take another QB in 2027, Oneil Cruz has an MVP candidate.

Michael McKenry joins to discuss Bubba Chandler's struggles, the suspenions of Chris Devenski and Don Kelly, his expeiernces getting thrown at as a batter, Konnor Griffin heating up - what adjustments he's made, Cruz as an MVP candidate, how the Pirates have used the ABS system. Overtime playoff hockey is always good, but Joe would make a tweak. Does Tarik Skubal's injury impact Skenes' contract. A question about Kenny Pickett.

Can the Bengals make a huge jump? The Athletic thinks they could win the Super Bowl. Nick can see Cincy winning the AFC North. What could the Ravens look like? What happens at QB wtih the Browns? How does Nick rank the AFC North? Nick predicts Aaron Rodgers shows up just before mandatory mini-camp (May 30th perhaps).

Nick Farabaugh joins to discuss the Pirates. Joe did a Twitter poll about who the people want as Steelers QB in 2026, and it's Will Howard leading the way. Why isn't Allar getting as much support? Why are the Steelers aggravating Aaron Rodgers? Did Rodgers have any influence over the draft?

Cherington failed last year, but the good outweighs the bad right now. Don Kelly has done a good job and is inching close to .500. Another caller is not willing to give Cherington credit just yet.

Ben Cherington's stock is on the rise. The difference from a year ago at this time is remarkable. Skenes, Griffin, and Seth Hernandez all seem like A+ picks. Even Bob Nutting is looking smart for keeping Cherington. Are we convinced the Pirates are a good team? Callers chime in on Cherington and are relatively positive.
