@_adamcrowley @scorindorin @937theFan No pick at 21 or even trading up is changing the franchise.

We. Are. BACK! Omar Khan missed a golden opportunity to change the franchise. We start there are 6 @937theFan

@DomDiTommaso It'll be 80 and sunny the next two days. That's the break. Relax and enjoy the weekend.

Pittsburgh has caught two terrible breaks with its NFL Draft: they get a fairly uninteresting draft where the first overall pick won't even show up, and now Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini have completely overshadowed everything.

@Alex_Kozora @Steelersdepot At this point, Dulac has dismissed just about any and every possibility in this draft.

Dulac doesn't think Pittsburgh will trade up for Utah's Spencer Fano or Penn State's Vega Ioane.

@scarpizio Steelers are a hard one. So I am putting either Art Sr or Dan on there as the overall face.

Who's on your Pittsburgh Sports Mount Rushmore. I gotta go with: Mario Mean Joe Roberto Sid

@ThePoniExpress @937theFan Breaking: Sportswriter does a mock draft.

BREAKING: Excellent Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo on @937thefan projects the Steelers will draft Miami QB Carson Beck. In the 3rd or 4th round. Beck reminds me of another Kenny Pickett. I would NOT like that. Would you?

@GhostofWhitman @BrendanPorath It's when you piss in Raes Creek and they tell you to go home.

@BrendanPorath What’s a “no return”?

Big fan of the last bullet here at Elie… come on home if you’re chopping it up.

@ChrisMuellerPGH Ha. Has this been confirmed yet though?

What are all the pro-LIV accounts on here that yell at everyone going to move on to now? There has to be somewhere for them to go!

@ThePoniExpress Just bought stock in hot coffee after reading this

Between cold brew and iced coffee. I’m convinced no one drinks hot coffee anymore. I was in line for coffee this morning. A long one. Not one hot coffee order. A new day has dawned.

Rumor: The tentative date for Konnor Griffin's promotion to the Pirates if all goes well is Memorial Day. That would give Griffin around 50 games at Triple-A. And around 200 at-bats. Would you be okay with this?

@RyanceyReturns looks like they're choking the house as well

this drain guy was told they had been having some Plumming issues He rolls up expecting the standard backyard drama—maybe a stubborn grease clog or a minor backup. Instead, the homeowner’s already pacing near a dug-up section of yard, looking equal parts embarrassed and relieved that someone else is about to deal with it. The drain guy assesses the situation, calls in the heavy artillery, and soon a backhoe is rumbling into position over the exposed line. The operator swings the bucket in, teeth biting into the earth around the pipe. With a slow, powerful lift, the backhoe starts pulling up a massive, tangled mass of tree roots that had completely invaded and choked the sewer line. The roots come up in thick, woody clumps—some still wrapped around sections of pipe like they’d been growing there for years, turning the whole system into their personal underground fortress. The drain guy directs the operator with calm instructions: “You can probably lift up now,” while the homeowner watches in stunned silence, occasionally muttering reactions in the background. The roots are lifted clear out of the hole, dripping dirt and water, exposing just how thoroughly nature had taken over what was supposed to be a clean pipe run. No dramatic yank by hand—just raw mechanical power dragging the intruder into the daylight. The plumber’s face stays professional, but you can see the moment the scale of the “minor issue” really hits. Turns out your little plumbing problem wasn’t a clog at all. It was a full-scale root invasion that required a backhoe to evict the tenants. So what’s the most ridiculous thing that’s ever invaded your pipes—or the pipes of someone you know? And be honest… how long do you think the trees around your house have been quietly plotting against your sewer line right now? 🌳🪠🚜

@MarkMaddenX Well, this didn’t take long.

Oh, FFS.

@HawkEmDownChris #8

Age yourself by naming an MLB shortstop you grew up watching. I’ll start: Derek Jeter.

@PEoperator Same for gas stations. A line for the indesicive people buying lottery tickets and those of us that just want a coke and snickers.

Coffee shops should have a separate line for those of us who just want black coffee.

@ChrisDokish So you know for a fact the Steelers offered them the job and they both said no thanks. We're good.?

The Steelers staff hiring is ending with a thud. Five assistants that stood out to me on the staff was going to include Tolzien and Haslett, and both decided to stay with the Saints instead.

@creepydotorg Donnie Darko

Can anybody recommend me a movie that has vibes like this photo?

@JoeStarkey1 Lived in Pittsburgh for 10 years. Reminds me of the people and places we were always coming in contact with. Special place.

I took a trip to 1137 Greenfield Avenue — the house Mike McCarthy mentioned — and won’t soon forget the trip … triblive.com/sports/joe-sta…

@KodyDuncanPGH The same reason why you'll be watching.

Why would anyone watch the Steelers next year if Aaron Rodgers is back at QB? We know how this movie ends. We have seen it for the past 4 years

@Steelersdepot When the Primanti waitress grabs an order and heads in your direction.

@Steelers4evr @ChrisMuellerPGH @sjain316 There were HC changes while he was with both Giants and Raiders. Both new HC's wanted to retain him. Sounds like he's respected to me.

@ChrisMuellerPGH @sjain316 Yes. The fact that you talk about sports for a living and don't know this is, quite frankly, embarrassing. Also, he's had 4 HC interviews. Even if they were Rooney Rule fulfillments, and not saying they were, they are going to pick the best ones.

Obviously not all his fault by any stretch, but in 6 of Patrick Graham's 7 years as a defensive coordinator, his team has been a double-digit loser.

@BreidenFehoko 1/2 of them were probably in Tomlin's basement watching it together.

The only red flag I have about this Mike McCarthy hire is for how historic the Steelers are only two active roster players were there at his introductory press conference yesterday. That says A LOT without saying a lot.
