Not sure it's even possible to be as bad a teammate as folks seem to be implying and at the same time play the most important position in one of the ultimate team games at the level Ben did. You end up being Jeff George, or any of many other examples. The logic is off here from Porter and Co. Sideba...

I like it but you gotta go OG earlier if not resigning Sem. Thinking OG is a first round position is a roster building trap, and one the Steelers have fallen into more than once. There might be a truly first round worthy pure OG once every 5 years. You could honestly, with apologies to our team's b...

Once a player retires becomes a member of the media, whatever "code" Porter is talking about is pretty much out the window. He might not do the rounds on BSPN like Clark does, but he's paid to call things like he sees them, and if he didn't, nobody would tune in to the podcast. Ben is at a particula...

Reading this and wondering if I should feel like a bad fan for never having heard of Emerson Martin, so Wikipedia says he was waived in October, 1995. Did they pick him back up later in the season, or did he have the same view of the Super Bowl as the rest of the nation?

In again for Philly, and for DAT.

Thanks, as always, for putting together Steelerfury Christmas, B2B!

I thought that when I did a run. Simpson was there but I would not pull that trigger. I ended up trading down, picking up a 2027 2nd and drafted K. McDonald The ratio of cheers to boos if they draft Simpson in the first would amount to a de facto IQ test for Steeler nation. You don't want to know t...

Man, I ended up picking Iaone, too. Dude is a popular guy. Or do we just all want to hear the boos and sell the team chants when they pick a guard in R1? I thought that when I did a run.

The first halftime show featured the University of Arizona and Grambling State University marching bands. How about we return to that tradition but, each season the nfl holds competitions for the halftime show. One state college and One university that wins the best marching band performance gets t...

Wow. Talk about more of the same.

Loved watching The Blair at Pitt. Memories.

But if Scheelhaase was an empty suit and Shula bombed his interview, what does that say about the candidates we sourced for the head coaching position? That tells me we did a poor job getting a competitive slate of candidates to interview. Frightening thought....Ben Johnson could be the coaching ve...

yes .. its a bit odd IMO Hard to not draw bad conclusions from the process, statements and outcome Scheelhaase being an hc candidate to us, but mcvay going outside of the organization to bring in Kingsbury when LaFleur left instead of just promoting Scheelhaas to the non-play calling rams OC job is...

This was definitely fun the first trip through. Thanks for the link!

Zo has some Tomlin in him...on the radio, streamed to Boston cable, every day, wearing shades inside for 4 hours. His on-air partner is a fat guy named Beetle. I haven’t listen to that local Sports radio there for some time. I rarely tune into that station, but when I do, it's the afternoon crew of...

Maybe he told the Steelers no thanks I'm going to wonder about this one. How many of the younger, more promising candidates interviewed didn't like what they were hearing about their roles from management? The "current state of the roster" was an early question, supposedly, which I assume meant the...

Guess it depends on how you define "we." How much will the fans regret it? He's got a huge challenge in front of him rebuilding a Raiders team that hasn't been good in a long time, in a division with a murderer's row of teams, at least in the regular season. He's going to start this year as the 4th ...

He's no Mean Kimo Von Greenhoffen.

MSU just got a huge infusion of cash from the Acrisure guy, a lot of it will go to fixing up Spartan Stadium. 400 million. Now, would it have made sense for Pitt and the city to keep Pitt stadium, with it's history, and fix it up rather than that stupid idea to share Heinz? A city run by jagoffs. P...

Great story!

And sucks about LC for sure.

The super fun timeline that is 2026 continues.

Yeah this DT class took a hit when the Canes Ahmad Moten and the Ducks Amauri Washington opted to stay in school. Just not a lot of Day 1 and 2 NT types to choose from, but I'm sure there are dudes I'm overlooking. My guy is still Kayden McDonald, but how about Clemson's Peter Woods? Been sliding d...

I never understood why a law library now stands at the former site of glorious of Forbes Field.

My apartment on Joncaire Street (cobblestone, with the bedroom facing the street, not wonderful if you wanted to sleep past about 7 AM) would have been right across the street.

Don't think I've seen this here yet The Steelers are set to hire Montana State defensive coordinator Shawn Howe as a coach to their defensive staff, according to Slim Kimmel of MTN Sports. His role will be coaching outside linebackers coach and defensive ends. https://share.google/IUkxD71o6yNDMOaeX...

IMHO, they will draft Lee Hunter if they think they are done with Benson. They are the same type of player. Hunter does not have the sand in his pants to play NT but will be a good 3 tech.

I've been hoping for a few seasons someone in the building might look at Benton and think Brett Kiesel.

Was just looking at Payne cutups the other afternoon. Like the player a lot.

Any chance Weidl could talk Jeff Stoutland to come on board as run game coordinator/OL guru?

Looks like Angelichio is going to be the hire. Too bad, this team doesn't need an angel, it needs Jesus.

Might want to brace ourselves for the Kirk Cousins experience

Meet the new boss, considerably worse than the old boss.

In news people on a Steelers site should actually care about, this means LC may very well be finally getting into the Hall. Should've happened a long time ago, and well-deserved. Still can't believe this many Steeler fans give a wet shit if Bellicheat or Krapft get into Canton or not, first ballot, ...

It's now a basketball and multipurpose arena.
