If the Bucs can finish this first half on a high note…they can go and get Chris Archer.

I’m tired of defending Tomlin. Chuck Noll stayed too long. Tomlin has too. I hear, well, who you gonna get that’s better? The same question was asked when Noll was here. Sometimes it’s not about who’s better, sometimes you just need a change.

I think it’s time I apologize for wanting the Bucs to take Dylan Crews over Skenes.

Bucs have had 4 winning seasons in the last 32 years. @ClintHurdle13 led those 4 winning seasons. Those 4 seasons came in Clint’s last 7 seasons. He was let go and Shelton is still here after 5 straight losing seasons.

If the Pirates can let my man @ClintHurdle13 go one year after an 82 win season…Shelton has to go.

Was talking to a baseball guy while in Florida, who is absolutely in love with the Pirates prospects. This guy has been around MLB forever, and NOT with the Bucs. He said….exact words here….I hope their dick of an owner doesn’t fuck this up…. lol.

If the Pirates were winning these games this time of year, with guys like Chavis, Tsutsugo, Vogelbach, Gamel, etc….I wouldn’t even care. It’s a whole different ball game with these young kids….I’m very interested.

Here’s my first "Towel"…. when Myron asked fans to bring any gold or yellow towel. He also said….if you don’t have one, go buy one…if you can’t buy one, dye one.
During any Pittsburgh @Steelers game, fans can be seen waving their “Terrible Towels” — a tradition that began with broadcaster Myron Cope during a championship run in 1975. @CraigMelvin reports on how the towel became part of the city’s identity. #HereWeGo

Maybe it’s the old man coming out in me, but I wish the players would still wear their own team’s uniform in the All Star game. When I would see guys like Clemente, Stargell, Parker, and Maz representing Pittsburgh and the Pirates, in a Bucco uni, made me feel kinda proud.

RIP Stan. It’s been an honor to call you a friend. What a great guy and pro. Stan wasn’t real popular when he first arrived,being from Cleveland, and not knowing the history of Pittsburgh sports. He worked hard to learn, and became one of the best, and a Pittsburgher.

I’m a Hometown Homer…and I will never apologize for that. I don’t give a rats ass what anybody thinks about that. I’ll still criticize, but I’ll still root like hell. The Buccos played extremely good baseball in this series.

Today is the anniversary of Three Rivers Stadium opening, July 16, 1970. Found my game ticket, not in very good shape.I was 14 during that summer,$1.90. lol.I remember that all the parking lots weren’t completed.They had wooden planks in some areas to walk on, because of mud.

I just don’t understand the hate for the Steelers QB’s. I’m fine to say I’m a Pickett guy…I don’t give a rat’s ass what anyone thinks about that…but I root just as hard when Rudy and Mitch play. I just don’t get it.

I didn’t see much of the Bucco game today. I’m certainly not going to tell anyone how to fan…I’ve tried that before….lol. This is just me…I’ve probably seen over 1,500 Bucco games in person, and have seen more bad players than most. I never booed one of them. Again, that’s me.

I know the object is to win games….but I must say the Bucs have played the Braves tougher than I thought they would….not looking for a consolation prize, but just sayin.

Even though the Buccos had a very rough year, I still had fun interacting with yinz. Better days are coming, probably not soon enough, but they will come. For those who think I’m old and dumb, just a heads up, I’ll be older and dumber next year. Thanks for putting up with me.

Watching Mackey right now. He thinks Shelton is gone, as do I. I usually wanna see my team win, no matter how the season is going, but I sure don’t wanna see a good month of September save his job. I want him gone.

Bill Virdon retired as a player in 1965. While he was coaching for the Bucs in 1968, the Bucs ran into some roster issues, due to military service of some players. Bill was called upon for a few pinch hitting appearances, and homered in one of his 3 AB’s.

Been a Bucco fan for 55yrs or so, around them on a regular basis for 30+ yrs. Marte was probably the most under appreciated player ever. Did he take some plays off. yup, but damn he was a great player. I loved watching him.
