Randy Baumann and the DVE Morning Show

Vera Clemente, wife of Pirates legend Roberto Clemente, passed away yesterday. Steve Blass remembers his valuable time spent with the Clementes and how Vera continued her husband's legacy after his tragic passing in 1972. Gerry Dulac and Stan Savran diagnose the Steelers offensive problems and how Randy Fichtner and Mike Tomlin can get creative in the remaining six weeks of the season, though pers...

Tim Benz of TribLive Sports thinks a season-ending suspension for Browns DE Myles Garrett is worthy punishment for his helmet wielding antics at the end of last night's 21-7 loss in Cleveland. Also, an update on the Pirates continuous front office job hunt. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last night's loss has been overshadowed by one of the most controversial plays in NFL history, when Browns defensive end Myles Garrett ripped off and swung Mason Rudolph's helmet and struck him in the head. Former players and media personalities from all over are condemning Garrett's actions, but he does have some unique supporters in his corner. Tim Benz and Mark Madden want Garrett gone for the...

It will take more than a mild illness to sideline Joe Haden, and Missi Matthews fully expects him to take the field against his former team tonight in Cleveland. She's also impressed with James Conner's performance this week and expects the running game to pick up where it left off with it's star back in the lineup. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He's been in the Black and Gold corner since Week 1, since the Patriots blowout, since the 0-3 start, through all of the injuries and "Fire Tomlin" drama, he's stood by your side, Steeler Nation, and he's not going anywhere. Big Cat has lofty expectations for the resilient Steelers and their menacing defense. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ohio. A river runs through it. A river which forms in Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. A river worthy of a name change, perhaps a few Steelers would come to mind. Will the Black and Gold keep rolling in Week 11 against a reeling Cleveland Browns squad? History might suggest otherwise, but the 2019 Steeler Defense is looking to place itself among past units of Steeler lore. See omnystudio.co...

It's Game Day and Dave Dameshek is fired up for Steeler Nation to take down the Brahnies in Cleveland tonight. Big Cat of Barstool Sports has been with Black and Gold since day one of this season and is just starting to reap the benefits. Missi Matthews has updates on the Steelers probables and those who will not see any action tonight. Also comedians Felicia Gillespie and Joe Bartnick stop by in...

The backup vs the Cleveland's prodigal son tomorrow night. Although this season hasn't exactly shaped up to be what most Browns fans anticipated heading into Week 1. But that can all be salvaged by knocking off a thriving AFC North rival tomorrow night. There is plenty to play for, even for the Browns who are essentially trying to salvage a lost season.

The SuperGenius has some inconsistent interests: Loves wrestling, hates comics, "likes" the Steelers, rips JuJu. However, he's being forced to defend his "No Ben, No Chance" stance now that the Steelers have seemingly revived their season for the time being. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Steelers Defense needs a nickname, especially after resurrecting a seemingly lost season. And how does Minkah Fitzpatrick seem to make is way to the ball on every play? Plus how can the Smother Brothers keep it rolling in Cleveland tomorrow night See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Steelers defense has been the driving force behind the team's five-win resurgence, but they need a nickname - and Cam Heyward has solicited your help. Merril Hoge likes what he sees from Baker Mayfield, especially in comparison to Johnny Manziel, but sees more maturity in Mason Rudolph. Mark Madden is a man of inconsistent taste, and Joe Bartnick has had enough with the gender reveal parties....

Gene Steratore gives his perspective of the wonky fumble recovery that led to a touchdown for Minkah Fitzpatrick on Sunday, and what it's like talking to coaches during pregame. Charlie Batch has a theory behind the Steelers safety on Sunday, and what kind of miscues may have led to the blown play. And a Bengals fan will not come down off the roof of a bar until they win. See omnystudio.com/listen...

Charlie Batch explains the reasoning behind the Steelers only blemish in their 17-12 victory vs. the Rams on Sunday - that safety following a botch Ryan Switzer punt return. But are the Steelers tipping plays? And Minkah Fitzpatrick's impact is on the Steelers turnaround has him on pace for Defensive Player of The Year. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Referee aficionado Gene Steratore has an interesting process behind defining the Minkah Fitzpatrick scoop and score that seemed (at least to everyone outside of Pittsburgh) to be an incomplete pass. Gene also describes what it's like to cut it up with coaches before the game, and some who really don't break character much at all (Jon Gruden). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Steelers have battled back from an 0-3 start to earn a winning record through Week 10 at 5-4, and it's mostly thanks to Minkah Fitzpatrick's sheer dominance in the secondary, and just like that the Steelers currently hold the sixth seed in the AFC. Tim Benz outlines his dream playoff scenario, Gerry Dulac shakes down the rest of the schedule and how the Steelers can stay in the hunt, and Stan...

Tom Green describes his Andy Kauffman-esque comedic approach to his earlier acts, and how he's evolved from the deconstructing prankster to a polished stand-up over the years, and also how his SNL stunt with Drew Barrymore flopped. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Picture this - the worst of the worst around the NFL (and there are quite a few) duke it out, head to head in the week in between the end of the regular season and the playoffs - like literally the weekdays in between. An 8:30am kickoff between the Dolphins and Jets on a Wednesday morning? Would you tune in? Dave Dameshek would. Probably because it's his idea, but it's a good one. See omnystudio.c...

It's been an eventful NFL season, but for the wrong reasons - multiple marquee players have suffered season ending injuries, lots of teams are terrible, which brings Dave Dameshek to the conclusion of his Garbage Bowl - pretty self explanatory. Veterans Day is Monday, November 11th, and Steve Montelone and It's About the Warrior Foundation are kicking off the weekend with their annual Veterans Day...

The Nats did it, Duck Hodges is still his guy, Pierogis are a superior comfort food, and Mitch Trubisky has to get over the fear of screens. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rob Corddry didn't expect much from his Daily Show correspondent position, Missi Matthews breaks down Bud's superstar season, PFT Commenter loves pierogis, Frank Caliendo is BURNING (like Jim Rome). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Comedian Frank Caliendo assesses the NFL at the turn after Week 9, and revisits some classics like Jim Rome, Al Pacino, and John Gruden, even Robert Downey, Jr. and more! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The SuperGenius likes the Pirates presidential hire, but doesn't think it will enact much change, and predicts the Steelers brilliant turnaround will end this week. And next. And maybe even the Week after that, too. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Steelers find themselves at 4-4 at the turn despite losing their franchise QB, and Mason Rudolph has been the subject of lofty criticism amid an unlikely mid-season comeback under his orchestration. And although Steeler Nation seems split over whether or not Rudolph is the franchise QB of the future, Merril Hoge insists the process takes seasons and not weeks, just look at Steve Young. See omn...

Merril Hoge isn't buying the "check down" theory behind Mason Rudolph's criticism, Mark Madden is impressed by the Steelers climb from 1-4 back to .500, but senses a demise is on the horizon, and we hear from the Tomlin Translator - who is inexplicably cruel to one player above all. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back at 4-4, the Steelers have finally shaken their September Stench, thanks in large part to defensive standouts like Cam Heyward and his War Daddies Bud Dupree and TJ Watt. Even through questionable penalty calls and muffed reviews (to which Gene Steratore can attest), the Steelers have crawled their way into playoff contention at the halfway point.
