KDKA Sports Showdown

KDKA Sports Showdown

KDKA Sports Showdown is a weekly Pittsburgh-based sports talk show airing at 11:35 Sunday nights on KDKA-TV Pittsburgh.

The show is hosted by Bob Pompeani or Jory Rand, both from KDKA-TV. A former regular panelist was Paul Alexander of KDKA-TV and KDKA radio. Alexander still appears on the show occasionally since his move to Fox Sports Net Pittsburgh. Frequent guest include KDKA-TV sports anchor John Steigerwald, ESPN Radio 1250 personality Tim Benz, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Columnist Ron Cook, and 104.7 FM sports host Ellis Cannon. Since its debut in 1997, "Showdown" has held a significant lead over the competition, including WTAE's "Action Sports Sunday", by several ratings points. Initially, the show was supposed to last only through the NFL Season, but because of its great success, it was expanded to air each week year-round.
