Pirates last playoff series win: 1979 Steelers last playoff win: 2017 Penguins last playoff series win: 2018 Pittsburgh is down bad

@16Diz4life @PenguinsJesus I’ll remember Sid hoisting the cup 3x in my life more than a last minute playoff run with a bunch of Uncs going for one more. We’ve already had our cake. This would’ve just been the cherry on top

@jackm1tchell @PenguinsJesus The beat the penguins and you will remember that

“COPE HARDERRRRR” I’ve watched this core win the Stanley Cup three times. More than your franchise has in its entire existence. You just happened to beat the 39 year old version of them. Congrats, I guess.

@16Diz4life @PenguinsJesus We watched Sid win 3 Stanley cups. He played in 4. What have the flyers done that people will remember besides giving up a bad angle shot to Patrick Kane to lose the finals in 2010?

@PenguinsJesus We have beat them plenty. But when Sid finally retires and the pens suck and the NHL doesn’t save them again this will be their future

The flyers got outplayed all night and finally have one good shift and end it. Can’t wait to watch them get swept by Carolina. Nothing good ever came out of Philly except maybe the Declaration of Independence

@penguins It’s time to ditch these stupid yellow jerseys in the playoffs. Every single time we wear them we lose in embarrass fashion. Whoever made that call needs to be fired

It's time to fight.

@PghJarron I was there the last time we made it against NYR. I’ll never forget how loud the Igor chants were. That place is 10x crazier for playoff games than the regular season

I bought my ticket last Sunday, even before I knew the opponent. However, the fact that the Penguins are playing against the Flyers makes this even more exciting!🍿 This will be my first time going to a NHL playoff game. Road to the Stanley Cup starts now. Let’s Go Pens!🐧

@jenniferjbarne1 @theficouple Pay off the mortgage and invest 75% of what remains

@theficouple What if mortgage is $39K at 3.5%, $120k in bank, 1 million in retirement

Let’s say you had $132,000 in the bank. But you also have a $132,000 mortgage at 4.8%. Would you invest the money in the stock market or pay off the house?

@adkinlk83 @JoeGoodberry Surely you don’t think they’re trying to copy the bengals by going with a white helmet. The titans / oilers had white helmets a long time ago

@JoeGoodberry It’s a copy cat league, no one can ever match our White Tiger. They just need to get the shade of blue right. Go full on throwback to Oiler days.

There are too many white helmets now

@Mazursky8895 Could’ve gotten so many other options that would’ve been exponentially better. But, at least we’re not the browns where coaches refuse to interview. D+

So in the end it’s: HC: Mike McCarthy OC: Brian Angelichio DC: Patrick Graham Grade it ⬇️

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ Would be great if we had a sideline view of this to show it more clearly that it’s going backwards

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ Hand going forward when he’s hit

Always let the defense run it in.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ You’re showing me a clip where his hand is going backwards

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ When his hand was pushed backwards he wasn’t in the process of throwing the ball forward. He had just pulled the ball back to himself and was getting ready to shovel pass it forward but his hand / arm was pushed backwards before he could start the throwing motion.

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ Like watch the video man, I don’t know how you can watch that and think it’s not a backwards pass / fumble.

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ Feels like you agree with me based on your statements, you just didn’t know the rulebook. I had to pull up the rulebook to see if my gut instinct on the play was correct.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ Yea and the defender hitting his hand causing the ball to come out backwards is what makes it a fumble. How is that hard to understand? I hate the patriots but this was such an easy call to make

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ I was a neutral in this game, it was just pretty clear that it was the defender hitting his hand which made the ball go backwards. Would have gone a couple yards forward if the defender hadn’t hit him during the passing motion.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ If my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle. The ball was moving backwards when it left his hand. His hand was also moving backwards. Literally no one agrees with you David

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ You clearly don’t understand the rule, given the way you’re arguing. There are two relevant questions. 1. Would the ball have gone forward if he wasn’t hit? 2. Did he still have control of the ball when his hand started moving forward? If you answer yes to both, it’s incomplete.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ His hand is pushed backwards before the ball comes out. The ball is never going forward once it leaves his hand? The video is concrete evidence of that, how can you disagree? Angry broncos fan?

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ His hand moves forward and then the hand/ball are hit during the throwing motion causing pass to go backwards instead of forwards.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ The ball goes backwards, it never even starts to move forward at any point once it leaves his hand. Are you blind?

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ He pumped, pulled it back, then started a flip pass. Was hit during the forward motion on his flip pass. Ball would have gone forward without the hit from the defender during his forward throwing motion.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ You can see here that he goes thru the throwing motion but he doesn’t release the ball, he starts pulling it back towards himself when it gets knocked out

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ If you say he lost control, it would have been after the forward throwing motion started. If it’s knocked out of your hand while the hand is going forward, by rule, it’s an incomplete pass.

@sportdinw @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ He lost control of it. It wasn’t a throw. Argue with a wall

@jackm1tchell @ColinWi85988251 @elitetakes_ Only because the arm/ball was hit after his arm started going forward. If your arm is hit after it starts going forward you can’t fumble, even if the ball ends up going backwards. Would have gone at least a couple yards downfield if he wasn’t hit.
