The Pomp And Joe Show

Do you play pickleball? Someone doesn't think golf is a sport?! The conversation goes off the rails and details our favorite games as a kid.

Bubba Chandler is struggling in Triple-A in June and has allowed 11 earned runs in 9.1 innings. What is the rationale to play Tommy Pham over young players? Between now and next June 23rd, what team will be the most successful? Bob and Austin pick the Steelers and Joe thinks the Pirates.

Tommy Pham said he deals with keratoconus, giving him blurry vision. He has been adjusting on the fly and his prescription has been wrong. Ben Cherington STILL thinks the Pirates have a group that can play winning baseball in 2025. He's said it but they haven't shown it.

Joe thinks the OKC Thunder aren't a fun team to watch. T.J. McConnell played great in the 3rd quarter with 10 straight points. Oneil Cruz missed a play on a base hit to center field and didn't show effort to chase after the ball when it went to the track. The Pirates are one of baseball's worst base running teams.

The doubleheader in Detroit didn’t end without some controversy this week, we share our list of best Steelers, so far, this century, Dave Wannstedt and more!

There was plenty of drama in the Pirates doubleheader yesterday. Dennis Santana went after a fan. TJ McConnell has become one of the biggest stories in the NBA. Who are the best basketball players from Western PA. We agree that Pistol Pete doesn't count. Joe runs down the list of other candidates for Western PA basketball Mount Rushmore. We take calls on the subject - there's a ton of candidates. Ray Fittipaldo joins to discuss Rodgers vs Fields and which player and team will have the better year, his confidence in Troy Fautanu, who the most impactful rookie will be, his grade for Patrick Queen in 24, his choice for breakout player, if Benton and JPJ can bounce back this year, if Watt will get what he wants, free association. Joe and Sean make their choices for the Pirates All-Century team, and have mostly the same guys except for an argument about Freddy Sanchez's position. Mike DeFabo joins to give Joe medical advice, the possible changes for the Steelers defense (quarters defense), his first impression of Aaron Rodgers. Mike White of the PG joins to share stories about TJ McConell from his youth and how he's evolved his game, his Mt Rushmore of Western Pa basketball, his keys to a Pacers win in Game 7. We can't get a hold of Bob Walk, so we shift topics, our Penguins All-Century team, does Lemieux make the list? What about Gonchar vs Orpik? A few updates to the Pens coaching staff. City Limits calls in. We choose our Pitt MBB All-Century team.
