I'm not one to jump on every time a former player says something about the Steelers.

0:14.4

I'm making an exception today, not just because it was Debo.

0:19.5

Good afternoon to you.

0:20.5

Good Friday afternoon.

0:21.5

I'm Dan Kovach of DK. Pittsburgh Sports.

This is a new double shot show.
