Following my opening commentary on the myth of objectivity in sports reporting, I welcomed DK Pittsburgh Sports colleague Neal Coolong to discuss the biggest storylines of Steelers training camp, which begins this weekend in Latrobe.
After my conversation with Coolong, Jason Rollison of FanSided Pirates blog Rumbunter joined me for some trade deadline talk. We addressed the Aramis Ramirez acquisition and what other needs the Bucs have as they pursue their third consecutive postseason berth.
I wrapped up the show with a few quick local tidbits, including the Penguins’ hiring of some local talent for their front office.
