@AKinkhabwala
The @NWS is saying we could have about .5 inch of rain in the next half an hour here in Pittsburgh. Good news though: Heinz Field can drain 15 inches of rain in one hour. (FIFTEEN!)

According to the @NFL, player warm-ups are expected to resume at 7:30pm. #Chiefs #Steelers https://twitter.com/AKinkhabwala/status ... 6275969031


Was just pushed back 15 minutes again according to NFL Network. 8:30 EST start now.

Oh goody...we get to listen to Charlie Batch and Pompeani blather on for an extra hour. The only thing that can top that is if they bring Edmund Nelson back for the evening. :lol:

Look for the DD stickers on the back of Steelers helmets Honoring Darryl Drake this season. Classy move.

@tribjoerutter
Among the players out for warm ups are WRs Moncrief, D. Johnson, Smith-Schuster, RB Conner. Ray Sherman and Blaine Stewart are on the field working with the receivers. https://twitter.com/tribjoerutter/statu ... 0549094400
@tribjoerutter
Vance McDonald also in uniform, but it looks like rookie TE Zach Gentry is down https://twitter.com/tribjoerutter/statu ... 1227905024
@tribjoerutter
Dupree & Watt are dressed. B.J. Finney is dressed after missing time with heat-related issues. Joe Haden is not dressed. Neither is Vince Williams. https://twitter.com/tribjoerutter/statu ... 0809651211

I'm REALLY interested to see Moncrief and DJohnson. Also want to see Washington build on what he did last week.

Hmmmm....a coach who's teams are known to start fast (and finish, not so much) might play his offense - the best in the league last year - almost a half?!?

Rain? Since when is rain a fucking problem? Even for a meaningless preseason game? Is there lightning?

That's the beauty of football. You play whenever. Whatever. Unless you're in danger. No lightning? Play. No matter what.

At least that's what it used to be like. . .

@missi_matthews
Mason Rudolph will get the start at QB tonight for the @steelers with most of the first-team offense. Maurkice Pouncey and Dave DeCastro won’t be out there. https://twitter.com/missi_matthews/stat ... 6082529280


Game On!

Aahhh. Ok. Thanks. For a minute there it seemed like the NFL is totally pussyfied. And that means a lot coming from the guy people like to call a commie/socialist/libertard.

Did Batch just pump up the career of Matt Speath as a bar for Gentry? Not sure if I heard that right, but if he did, I hope he's a whole lot more like Miller than Speath!
