Fair Game with Nick Farabaugh. Nick says he cannot confirm how many toilets are in the Steelers locker room, but it is definitely far less than how many their should be. Nick also says that he does not think the Steelers are seriously considering Ty Simpson at 21.

Konnor Griffin is on the cover of ESPN today. He went 0-2 today, but he is still having a good Spring Training. Donny Football makes his return from Penn State as he was our representative for their career fair. He talks about meeting people at PSU and being the face of the Fan talking to students. How many students knew Limits? Donny answers a few questions about Konnor Griffin.

Mark Kaboly joins the show for the next hour. Kaboly says that it makes a lot of sense that Ty Simpson liked Mike McCarthy, given McCarthy's personality. He also says that he does not think that the Steelers are going to take a QB in round 1. An anonymous benefactor dropped off a supply drop of burgers and wings, and it has the guys all out of sorts. Anyways, Mark thinks that the Steelers will go wide receiver in round one. The release of the NFLPA report cards already has the Steelers making changes. The Steelers have changed up their type of grass at Acrisure Stadium after all of the complaints from last season. Mark does not think there is any chance that the Steelers trade DK Metcalf.

Ty Simpson raved about Mike McCarthy in his press conference at the combine. Mullsy thinks that this amount of praise is notable, and even unnatural. He also thinks that Simpson's praise could be because he wants to be a Steeler. Are the Steelers really considering drafting Simpson? More on Ty Simpson potentially being a Steeler. Calls. Intern Jack takes over for Donny in the Debrief. Should the Steelers go wide receiver in the first round?

Here's a concerning fact regarding the Steelers heading into 2026 – the Pirates have better odds to win the World Series than the Steelers do to win the Super Bowl. If the Steelers did win it all, they would be one of the biggest longshots in league history to pull it off. Pirates insider Jason Mackey from the PG joined the show. After taking a ball off the foot a couple days ago, Jason told us that Konnor Griffin is OK and just had a scheduled day off. Jason believes the deal for Griffin will be north of $100M if it gets done. Jason feels like Griffin's camp is also interested in a deal, but he can't say for certain that the Pirates will make an offer. Jason sees Griffin on the Opening Day roster as a 50/50 proposition right now. Jason, however, did give it a 60/40 chance that a deal gets done with Griffin. That deal would cap off one of the best off-seasons we've seen from the Pirates in recent memory. Jason indicated that the players already locked into the big-league club believe the hype in Griffin. Jason still expects the Pirates to bring in a left-handed starter before the real games begin. Total Request Thursday.

Louis Riddick thinks it's a little bit ridiculous that the Steelers would consider Will Howard if they have a chance to draft Ty Simpson. How much better is Simpson than Howard? Poni wondered if what Austin is doing with Drew Allar is similar to what he and other Pitt fans did with Kenny Pickett a few years ago. Poni is curious if other Penn State fans are like that or if Austin has a man-crush. Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show. The guys immediately dug into the leaked Steelers report card, which had Art Rooney rated as the worst owner in the league – citing terrible facilities, including the field at Acrisure Stadium. Should the Steelers find a way to stop high school games from happening at the stadium? Ray doesn't think this bothers Art because he claims they are working on upgrades or some new facilities. Ray doesn't think it should be shocking if the Steelers use a 3rd round pick on Drew Allar. Ray thinks any rookie QB selected by the Steelers would be QB3 for most, if not all of the season. Ray is skeptical of Ty Simpson getting 1st round buzz and does not expect the Steelers to have interest at 21st overall. Ray thinks the article listing DK Metcalf as a trade candidate is someone in the media being forced to think of a name. Ray expects the Steelers to add a free agent WR that makes roughly $15M/year. Power Rankings – Top 5 Steelers draft wish list.

For about 2 decades, the Steelers had no concern at QB and WR. For the last 5 years, they have had big concerns at both. Rumors are running rampant at the NFL Combine this week, which is oftentimes a spot for that sort of thing. One of the big rumors is the Steelers looking into Brian Thomas Jr., who saw a decline in his second season after an electric rookie year. What would that price be and can the Steelers afford it? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob doesn't want to leave any stone unturned when it comes to the Steelers and quarterback – saying he would deal a day three pick for Anthony Richardson, but no way it could be better than a 5th round selection. The guys were distracted quickly because Pomp is on an afternoon walk. What were Pomp's worst subjects in school? Pomp is perplexed as to why the Penguins are having issues selling out the arena. He thinks the team not being a true contender in a bit could be a reason even though they are a great story this year. Donny Football Debrief – Oh baby, the Steelers report cards got leaked and they were not kind to Art Rooney.

The Penguins get back to it tonight in their first game without Sidney Crosby following his injury in the Olympics. They are in a playoff spot and have been one of the best stories in the NHL. But the guys have a big question – why is nobody going to the games? Is it more complex than the ticket price, concessions, travel to the game, etc. or is it really that simple? Fans explain why they are/aren't going to Penguins games. Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike works for NBC and the company is making some changes to their broadcast team heading into next season, including Tony Dungy being let go. In an article today, names like Mike Tomlin, Cam Heyward and Aaron Rodgers were thrown into the mix, but Mike has no bearing to say the likelihood of that happening. Mike insisted that Tomlin still has the pick of the litter when it comes to networks and will be on TV if he wants to be. What is the latest buzz Mike is hearing from the NFL Combine? Mike has his doubts that Mike McCarthy and the Steelers are in love with Will Howard the way they say. Mike said we still don't officially know if the guaranteed money is owed to DK Metcalf following the fan incident in Detroit. Mike doesn't think it would be wise to move on from Metcalf after one season. Mike questioned Rodgers wanting to play for McCarthy after the comments he made regarding his football IQ years ago.

Report: The Pirates and Konnor Griffin are open to a deal. Which Buccos star would you rather sign to a long-term deal – Griffin or Paul Skenes? The guys began to argue in favor of Griffin getting the deal because he plays every day. It's weird having a pair of potential generational talents with the Pirates. 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff gave the layout from the NFL Combine in Indianapolis. He said the radio row area has become very impressive. Jeff talked about the trip to the Pacers game last night which led to an embarrassing Kaboly moment. Is it due diligence or more than that with Caleb Downs? Jeff isn't sure if it will be possible for the Steelers to move up far enough to draft him. Jeff said the Steelers need to listen to everything put on their table, including an offer for DK Metcalf. We noticed that 2 former Steelers hosting a podcast put out some very questionable free agents on their wish lists. Jeff talked about the layer of deception with the Steelers around the draft. Judge Donny – Is Omar Khan doing a ‘good' job?

The Steelers plan to meet with Caleb Downs at the NFL Combine. He is a consensus Top 10 player in this year's class. So, why are the Steelers wasting their time here? There is a chance he's the highest drafted safety in decades – with Mel Kiper having him 2nd overall in his latest mock draft. With how devalued the safety position has been, is it worth it for the Steelers to jump up to get a top tier player? ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Aditi ran through some NFL coaching trivia before the guys asked her some NFL Combine question. Aditi weighed in on the Steelers meeting with Caleb Downs even though he's a top 5-10 pick. What other scuttlebutt is going on in Indy? Aditi has her doubts that Aaron Rodgers has his mind made up yet on returning to the NFL or the Steelers. Aditi thinks the Steelers need a plan at QB and can't keep treading water. Bucco Minute – Paul Skenes made his first start of the spring. How will he and others adjust to the balls and strikes review system in 2026? Oneil Cruz had a gaffe out in centerfield today too.

In an ESPN article regarding big trades to be made during the NFL offseason, DK Metcalf was ranked 6th – ahead of guys like Tua Tagovailoa and Kyler Murray. The Steelers are free of a dead cap hit with Metcalf due to the incident that took place during the Lions' game late in the season. Chris is OK with making a trade, even though it would leave them with 0 notable WRs. What if a team offers a 1st round pick? The conversation took a turn to best bands to come out of Western PA. The Bills, Commanders and Patriots were listed as landing spots for DK Metcalf in the article from ESPN stating that he is on the trade block. There's a weird piece of gym behavior in the work gym down the hill from us. More on the best bands in Western PA debate. Donny Football Debrief – A few Ravens players have sounded off after the NFL admitted to missing some big calls in their loss to the Steelers in Week 14.

The big breaking news of the day is Sidney Crosby being out for ‘at least' 4 weeks after the lower-body injury suffered last week in the Olympics. Does this ruin the Penguins' season? Historically, Evgeni Malkin has stepped up big when Crosby has been absent, but can he do that at 39? One of our biggest fans, and a massive Penguins fan, told us he was ‘spiraling' with this news. For as fun as this season has been and as fun as the US winning a gold medal was – was it all worth it? The guys don't think we should just accept the fact that the Olympics could very well cost the Penguins a playoff spot. Was Sidney Crosby really that close to playing in the Gold Medal game? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. TK reacted to the news of Sidney Crosby being out for ‘at least' a month as the Penguins pursue a playoff spot. Tyler expects Evgeni Malkin to step up, even at 39-years-old, like he has done in the past without Sid. He thinks Kyle Dubas will be aggressive as the trade deadline approaches. Dubas made another trade TK liked yesterday, moving on from one defenseman to acquire another. Tyler said it's very good that Geno got this time off because he's at the age where that is necessary in the middle of the season. Tyler admitted he would give Jack Hughes a standing ovation tomorrow night if he was at the game. TK told us a wild story about an injury he suffered off-the-ice during his career that he had to slyly lie about.

Khan's Quotes – What else did Omar Khan say to the media earlier today? Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt said things have officially gotten interesting with how the Pirates will handle Konnor Griffin after 2 long home runs today against MLB caliber pitching. Ranger Suarez, one of the best LHP in baseball, allowed the first one, and Matt assured the guys he wasn't just ‘grooving' the pitches in there. How difficult is this situation going to be for the Pirates? Matt has noted before that he's a card collector, so he said he hopes everyone got their Griffin cards already. Could the Pirates have the next Mike Trout on their hands? Matt said he can't argue with the Pirates if they decide to send Griffin down for some final fine tuning before the season.

Last season it was Shedeur Sanders that got the love from Mel Kiper Jr going into the draft. This year's name appears to be Ty Simpson and Kiper, yet again, has the Steelers connected to the QB. Are we even positive that Simpson is better than Kenny Pickett? Poni said he would be more upset about the Steelers drafting Simpson would be worse than bringing Aaron Rodgers back. How do fans feel about Ty Simpson? We ranked Simpson against Will Howard and Drew Allar. Donny Football Debrief – Some of the new UFL rules are interesting. Will any ever get picked up by the NFL?

Poni is nervous. He once had a lot of hope for Will Howard, but he can't believe the amount of hype surrounding a 6th round pick by the team itself. Is this what happens with Mike Tomlin gone? A random conversation about kielbasa for breakfast turned the tide of the segment. Calls on Will Howard and kielbasa for breakfast. The answer we got today from Omar Khan about Broderick Jones has us worried about his football future. Is there any faith in Dylan Cook?

Omar Khan spoke to the media today as the NFL Combine is underway in Indianapolis. The biggest takeaway is what he said about quarterback and Mike McCarthy. Do we think Khan wants Aaron Rodgers back the same way the coach wants? The guys believe Khan actually wants Will Howard to start and push to the future, but the coach and owner could be holding that back. Poni has his doubts we find many people that will be calling in defense of the older QB. Would Aaron Rodgers consider any other team besides the Steelers? Would any other team, besides the Steelers, consider him? Sports Court w/ our friends from Edgar Snyder & Associates. With Konnor Griffin mashing the baseball today, the guys asked if any prospect in baseball could make a legal push to be on a big-league roster earlier than they should? After Sidney Crosby was hurt in the Olympics, what legal standing is there when it comes to pro players taking part in international competition? Rob told us baseball and hockey are different, and that each player in MLB has to have insurance policies in-place before they play in something like the World Baseball Classic. He added that players that don't get insured could lose everything if they get injured.
