Loved your humor and nicknames...

And the vision you planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

I agree it’s been a fun ride. B2B, drama, KC, Ice etc always appreciated your insights. More time for fishing, golf, tennis.

At this point, you just have to enjoy the humor and tone deafness of it all. Why leave? Stay and watch the train wreck. They'll fall apart almost instantly, and McCarthy will be canned within 3 years. Art II loves the idea of their coaching stability and he just fucked the pooch on this one to the point where he's going to have to suck it up and make another move in no time. Killing what he's probably proudest about with this franchise.

That’s what makes this triply ridiculous … and Old coach …. A retread
No, I am not watching this
I am not changing teams … just done caring and certainly done spending
There is no doubt in my mind that this ownership is not concerned in anyway with championships
They Want stable mediocrity

Problem is he won't fire him, won't have the stones.

Avid fisherman

Often times end fishing trips early to make sure I can watch the game

Not anymore

Just so disheartening

This has finally sunk in for me …
Draft in Pittsburgh next year and the face of the team will be fat Mike, zombie Art, Aaron Rodger’s, the jogger and Cam
Fuck this

McCarthy is a good coach. Why is everyone so upset ? He wins and makes playoffs a lot. Is that too similar to Tomlin ? Rooneys are not going to rebuild. They want to make playoffs every year. Why are you guys so pissed about hire ?

I think this move is going to ruin the team. Art will have to step aside. I hope they sell. This family is fucked in tbt head

As someone who was conscious during the 1960’s the Steelers have gone Back to the Future. This is just criminal, sadistic even.

McCarthy is old. He’s coach for a few years to find the right QB and set the table for the next guy…#brightsde

I’d rather him than Flores or Weaver.

The Rooney’s are never gonna sell the Steelers. There’s a better chance of the Pope selling the Vatican.

Yep!
