Point of reference here. I am a longtime Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Cut my arm, it bleeds black and gold. And after the quarterback we previously had in our operations finally retired, there was a question as to what would happen with the Steelers going forward. The quarterback position is the heart and soul of any…

Our quarterback dilemma
As a longtime Pittsburgh Steelers fan, I can appreciate all the work that our previous quarterback did for the past 18 years. But now that he’s (finally) retired, the Steelers have a problem. Who’s going to be the best fit to take snaps for the 2022-23 season? And I’m writing this now, not knowing the…
Read MoreThe Washington Commanders pay tribute to a legendary D.C. football team.
As you may be aware, the NFL’s team in Washington, D.C. has undergone a much-needed rebranding. After decades of riding on the racist nickname of “Redskins,” the team rebranded itself for the past two seasons under the generic name of “Washington Football Team.” Which, in itself, was kinda quirky and had its charm, but it…

Yep, the impossible happened yesterday. Everything fell into place, but don’t tell me it wasn’t a nail-biter all the way. First, the Pittsburgh Steelers needed to take care of their business and beat the Baltimore Ravens. In Baltimore. Not an easy task. But three clutch field goals from Steelers kicker Chris Boswell, a key end…
Read MoreTwo specific wins, and a third game to not end in a tie. That’s all I want.
For the Pittsburgh Steelers, it all comes down to today’s contests. There’s only one path for the Black and Gold to advance into the postseason. It’s a longshot, but it can happen. (1) The Steelers have to defeat the Baltimore Ravens in Baltimore. Now Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson is ruled out for the game with a…
Read MoreSome things to root for in the Steelers’ regular season finale.
As a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, I totally understand. Our postseason right now hangs in the balance. To make the playoffs, three things have to happen. Pittsburgh needs to defeat Baltimore in Baltimore this Sunday. The Indianapolis Colts have to lose to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Jacksonville. And the Chargers-Raiders game on Sunday night can NOT…

Last Monday night, I watched the Pittsburgh Steelers defeat the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football. The win continued the Steelers’ four-game win streak, it pushed them closer to the top of the AFC North division, and hopefully shut up all the naysayers about the Steelers’ 2021-22 season. I mean, the quarterback should have retired…

This may be the last year that my beloved Pittsburgh Steelers have their long-time quarterback under center. I mean, right now the options to replace him aren’t great; between previous use of backup Mason Rudolph and signing the washout from the Washington Football Team Dwayne Haskins, it looks like our quarterback might get one more…
Read MoreHey, Najee Harris, welcome to the Steelers! Double Yoi!!
As a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, last year’s season was a heartbreaker. The team starts out with an 11-0 win-loss record, and then proceeds to puke up the rest of the season – and loses a playoff game to the (scuse me, I’m going to retch) Cleveland Browns. Ugh. And then afterward, the team loses running…
Read MorePittsburgh needs a new quarterback next season. Our current one sucks.
Let’s be clear on what happened last night. The Cleveland Browns won a playoff game for the first time in 28 years. They beat the Pittsburgh Steelers, my beloved Steelers, in Pittsburgh, with a 28-0 first quarter and a 35-10 half, en route to a 48-37 triumph. The Steelers, who went 11-0 to start the…
