Hey guys. Good Tuesday afternoon. I'm Dan Kovachwitch for DK. Pittsburgh Sports. This is

0:14.8

Double shot of Steelers. And it's coming to you on the eve of reporting date for training camp.

0:21.0

I guess we could debate whether or not training camp opens tomorrow

0:26.4

or whether it opens on Thursday because all they do tomorrow is show up.

0:33.6

There's a run test near the end of the day, and Mike Tomlin has an availability.

0:37.4

But I don't think there's any, like, you know, hard and fast thing that, like, training camp opens. I don't know. I'm actually going to bring that up with Chris. I have a tough time with that one. But one way or another, they're going to be there. We're going to be there. We're going to have a ton of stuff for you. Wait until you see the coverage that we're going to have of this camp, both in multimedia and in written form for our people who follow us at D.K. Pittsburgh Sports. Chris will be joining us here after the break.

1:16.0

Tomorrow is the day we're going to get answers to a whole lot of questions.

1:25.1

I'm betting he's been told.

1:48.3

I want to find out what kind of mood Derek Harmon and or Keanu Benton might be. And since they might in a way be going head to head if you think about it, at least for who's going to be the guy who stays on the field with Cam Hayward,

1:52.5

whenever they go with only two down linemen, which they do most of the time.

1:56.5

That sort of thing.

1:58.2

For those of you who aren't familiar with the process, it's we stand on a hill,

2:04.1

us, us reporter types. We stand on the top of this grass hill and we wait for players to come

2:10.6

and show up in one particular entrance to their dorm area. That applies to everybody. Now,

2:17.3

that doesn't mean that you get all of the biggest names and

2:20.5

everything else. Sometimes those players find their own way in and out of these buildings with

2:25.7

some help from the team. I don't remember Ben Rothesberger, for example, being there on reporting

2:30.5

date. So there's always, or Troy Palomalu, for example, they were always a way for

2:35.6

those guys, you know, secret side entrances behind the whatever, but we're going to get a bunch of

2:42.2
