Omar Khan told Chris Mack on the Westwood Sports Network that he has no idea where Aaron Rodgers is. What are we doing here? Mullsy, once again, is frustrated that Aaron Rodgers is the topic of the day. Why are the Steelers allowing themselves to be strung along by a quarterback who is well past his prime and only had average numbers last year? Mullsy says this is a little crazy and embarrassing for the Steelers.
5-8 PM Team 5pm Hour
A wild Open Phone Friday
UFOs are around. Does Mullsy believe aliens have contacted humans? Tony Todd is a highly underrated actor and I tell Mullsy about Daniel Robataille. Mullsy does a Omar Khan retrospective. Where do Steelers fans stand regarding the team's GM? Mullsy says the Khan era is summarized by mixed first round picks and reach draft picks. Kaleb Johnson and Roman Wilson come to mind. Mullsy says that the overall picture painted by Khan is not new for the Steelers.
Full hour with Mark Kaboly in the studio to recap the Aaron Rodgers saga
5-8 PM Team 3pm Hour
Matt Clement joins the show. He says people still send him baseball cards to sign still and he does not know why. Yesterday was the ten year anniversary of Bartolo Colon hitting his one in a million home run. Matt discusses how crucial the additions of Lowe and O'Hearn have been to the Pirates and how they can be taken seriously now. Clement says that the lineup DK had when he took over last year is night and day compared to the one he has now.
5-8 PM Team Full Show
Is public opinion starting to turn around on Ben Cherington? His two major offseason additions have made a significant difference so far this season. Ryan O'Hearn and Brandon Lowe have been hits. Don Kelly is 80-82 in a "full season" as Pirates GM. The Pirates acquired Lowe and Mason Montgomery for Mike Burrows. Burrows has performed poorly during his time so far in Houston. Nick Gonzales has hit well as a first round pick in the Cherington era.
5-8 PM Team 2pm Hour
Fair Game with Nick Farabaugh! Nick says it is fair to say jobs can be lost but not won during rookie mini camp. This is the time for UDFAs to show they can handle the NFL and retain information. Nick believes that Aaron Rodgers is in Pittsburgh but isn't sure why. Nick says that he cannot guarantee that Rodgers will sign a contract by the end of the weekend. Can this extend to mandatory minicamp?
The Donny Football Debrief: Mark Kaboly joins the show to explain his report on the Steelers having no idea Rodgers was coming to town.
5-7 PM Team Full Show
Steve Palazzolo of the 33rd Team joins the show to talk about Rodgers coming back. Steve says he is curious to see if Rodgers can still produce like a top 15 quarterback. Do teams know when they are rebuilding? Should the Steelers tank for a year to determine which of their current quarterbacks is the best?
5-7 PM Team 5pm Hour
Ray Fittipaldo joins the show to react to the FMS report of Aaron Rodgers coming to town. Ray is wondering why Aaron is coming to town instead of handling things over the phone?
Poni says he is holding out hope for a Hail Mary that Rodgers does not sign with the Steelers and backs out of the deal. Could the Steelers be interested in bringing in Brendan Sorsby? The Browns are apparently doing their "due diligence".
The Fan Morning Show broke the news that Aaron Rodgers is coming to town this weekend to re-sign with the Steelers...potentially. Adam Crowley joins the show to talk about how The Morning Show heard and broke the news. Crowley says that they sat on the story for half an hour before going public with the news. Was Callas involved with breaking the news or the story itself?
Was Jason Mackey a fan of pulling Paul Skenes in the 9th inning to prevent a complete game? Jason says this is the best Paul Skenes has looked in his short time here in Pittsburgh. Jason says that the Pirates do not have a specific closer. Dennis Santana will get save opportunities but is not the 'capital C' closer. How much more runway will Marcell Ozuna get with the Pirates? Jason says Mlodzinski will leave the rotation when Jared Jones returns from the injured list.
5-7 PM Team 2pm Hour
Peter Schrager says he is not convinced Rodgers is coming back to the Steelers until he sees his name on the dotted line. Who do Steelers fans want to see start at quarterback? Mullsy says that at this point in Rodgers' career he has more respect for Tomlin than he will for Mike McCarthy.

5-7 PM Team 3pm Hour
Former Steelers quarterback Charlie Batch joins the show because he was right all along: the holdup with Rodgers and the Steelers was money. He said he looked at the average starting quarterback salaries and thinks Rodgers wants around the $30 million mark. How good does Charlie think Rodgers can be? He says that acquiring a second wide receiver like Michael Pittman Jr. shows the Steelers are serious about surrounding Rodgers with weapons, not just Calvin Austin types. What will the projected quarterback depth chart look like? Charlie says the Steelers don't have to rush to narrow down their QB room.
5-6 PM Team Full Show
Why hasn't Aaron Rodgers signed a contract yet? Was Charlie Batch right all along with it being a contract dispute? Mullsy says that Rodgers can take his time because the Steelers are run by "a bunch of pushovers". If Rodgers thought there was any real threat the Steelers would move on, he would have signed with them or another team.
Tyler Kennedy joins the show! There is a report out there from Dave Pagnotta saying a one year, $5 million deal asking price and would be surprised if he wasn't a Penguin. TK says that he does not think Malkin will be a point per game player next season and $5 million would be a fair price. TK says he would be okay with letting Malkin walk and bringing in the new guard. TK says that he does not think Sid would be happy about letting Malkin walk but would ultimately understand it.
Will the Steelers play overseas again this season? There is a rumor the Steelers will play the Jaguars in London. When was the last time the Steelers played in London?
Who had the better season: The Toronto Maple Leafs or the Pittsburgh Penguins?
5-6 PM Team 5pm Hour
Brian Gulish of the Pittsburgh Community Food Bank joined the show. The Food Bank announced a new partnership initiative beginning in June to help children in our area. People can accomplish 30 miles in 30 days, walking one mile per day. They partnered with the Pirates, Penguins, and Steelers with a "Burgh Proud" t-shirt.
The Steelers are apparently getting fed up with Aaron Rodgers not signing yet. Why hasn't the old quarterback signed a contract with the Steelers yet? Why haven't the Steelers publicly stated they have no problem waiting for him? They have two quarterbacks who have never played in the NFL before and Mason Rudolph. They should be able to admit they're okay with waiting for him.
