Father Tomlin = Father Flannigan

The Right Rev. Monsignor Edward Joseph Flanagan (13 July 1886 – 15 May 1948) was an Irish-born priest of the Catholic Church in the United States who served for decades in Nebraska. After serving as a parish priest in the Catholic Diocese of Omaha, he founded the orphanage and educational complex known as Boys Town, located west of the city in what is now Boys Town, Douglas County, Nebraska. In the 21st century, the complex also serves as a center for troubled youth.


Remember the reclamation projects he's undertook, especially Sutton and his lack of professionalism on and off the field

Special rules for the 'kids'
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens reportedly was late to the team’s Christmas Day game against the Kansas City Chiefs, to go along with several other transgressions this season.

According to a report by Mike DeFabo of The Athletic on Tuesday, Pickens arrived at Acrisure Stadium 40 minutes late for the game between the Steelers and Chiefs on Dec. 25.

Steelers players are expected to arrive at Acrisure Stadium at least two hours before kickoff for a home game. Pickens reportedly arrived an hour and 25 minutes before the 1 p.m. kickoff, 35 minutes late.

That was the game where Pickens ran to the sideline, instead of down field as Russell Wilson was expecting, on an interception in the end zone.

It was a game before Pickens was spotted on the sideline yelling at fans during home a loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, with tight end Pat Freiermuth having to pull him away.
Tomlin PC 1/14/25 -“‘Stuck’ is a helpless feeling. I don’t feel helpless,” Tomlin said. “I don’t know if I want to sell you an overly optimistic (tone) either.

"Jerry! Omar here."

"Who?"

"Omar. Omar Khan. With the Pittsburgh Steelers."

"If you say so. What can I do for you, Omar?"

"How does George Pickens for a 2nd round pick sound, Jerrah?"

I’m really not sure we could get a 2nd rounder for Pickens.

Not anymore. Probably a 4th…if we’re lucky.

Oh I bet we could get a second and maybe more.
There are plenty of borderline teams that look at a guy like that and think "I can fix him!"

While we'd never do it, I'm fairly convinced we need to move one of our blue chip guys this off-season and get some picks to go get a QB. I would hate to see it, but Watt would be my first thought and Pickens #2.

George has been a talented player and funny at times but hes a problem. They have to trade him. Did he really tell Mahomes to come get him? Some team like the Raiders will give at least a 3rd or 4th rounder for him.

No WR would come to this hellscape unless he was very desperate.

But, he would get to end the season early, which means more time to relax.

Pickens knows this offense is outdated and doomed. He can’t get outta here fast enough.
