The best conversations from The Fan Morning Show, The Pomp and Joe Show, and The PM Team with Poni Mueller during the week of May 5-9. Reacting to two major stories in Pittsburgh stories: the Steelers trading wide receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys, and the Pirates dismissing manager Derek Shelton. Ray Fittipaldo says Pickens was a "cancer" in the Steelers locker room,, and the trade should have no bearing on whether Aaron Rodgers signs with the team. Pomp says he would have kept Pickens and waited for him to mature. Noah Hiles of the Post-Gazette tells the morning show that Bucs GM Ben Cherington is likely to be back for 2026, despite Shelton's firing. All that and more!…

Pirates legend Jim Leyland joined the show. Jim said it is always a sad day when a manager gets let go and feels for Derek Shelton being the man out of a job. That being said, he’s thrilled for Don Kelly, one of his pupils, getting a big opportunity. Jim’s advice to Kelly was to be himself and let the players do their jobs too. Jim hopes that Don can ease some tension in the clubhouse and said you always have to earn it at this level. Jim said you have to do everything you can for the players and if they don’t perform, it’s time to take them to task. Jim wants to see the Pirates get a little bit creative offensively to cause a spark. The guys asked Jim about consistency in the lineup and how it can impact the usual players. Jim talked about Don’s playing experience and how playing every single position will help him with the team. Jim said you can plan for a lot of things in a game, but you can’t script it. Jim doesn’t believe in the analytics department much and said a lot of his success came more from instinct, watching the game, and working with is assistant coaches. Jim expressed the importance of not overloading the players with too much information and just letting them play the game. Other advice from Jim to Don was to hire an experienced bench coach. The Jim Leyland chat got us talking about cigs. We also heard the words of Andrew McCutchen following the firing of Derek Shelton.

Steelers correspondent Mark Kaboly from The Pat McAfee Show joined the show. The guys asked Mark about the big news of the week and everyone that was surrounding the trade of George Pickens to the Cowboys. Mark suggested that things were way uglier behind-the-scenes with Pickens than we realize. Does Mark believe in what was said by Omar Khan about the state of the WR room? Mark claims Aaron Rodgers may not even know Pickens got traded. Mark likes Amari Cooper the most out of the available receivers. More w/ Mark – Poni got upset since the other 3 of us talked wrestling for a moment. Does George Pickens think he can hit big in the open market next offseason? More w/ Mark – Will Howard has signed his deal with the Steelers. Mark said there wasn’t much to see on the first day of rookie minicamp since guys don’t do a ton, but said Howard passes the ‘off the bus’ test. Mark thinks Kaleb Johnson looks more like Le’Veon Bell than Najee Harris. Mark said Yahya Black carries the weight better than he expected. Mark raved about the look of Jack Sawyer and said Pittsburgh will love another ‘meathead linebacker.’ The guys discussed a tweet from Cam Heyward about an hour ago. We also talked about Bill Belichick and the latest with JORDON. Then the conversation turned to sports movies and why Mark hates them.…
