to George Pickens 14 yard game-winning lump-of-coal stocking stuffer they dropped on the boys from Vegas was a Christmas present 50 years in the making! Merry Christmas to all!
So sad to hear this. Another Steeler that should be in the HOF. Andy was great before the Steelers were great. And he was a big part of building, and being a part of the dynasty that was the 70's Steelers. Great player, even better man.

rookie center Zach Frazier on what heโs focusing on four practices into OTAs.
โFirst and foremost, getting the snap back there good. Focusing on cadence โฆ just really everything. Snap, cadence, assignment, technique.โ

Anytime I hear or think of Andy Russell, I'm reminded of this story from the late Myron Cope and the aid of the Terrible Towel in one of the slowest Touchdown returns in NFL history. ๐คฃ (h/t

We were teammates at Syracuse U. Love this guy. At a tryout, he kicked a 72-yard FG with his right leg, and a 55-yarder with his LEFT leg! In jeans!...yes jeans!

"Weโre all talking and taking off our pads in the locker room and we hear a loud BOOM and see a helmet banging on the floor. The name on the helmet was Greene."
Loved this man. The last words Chuck Noll ever said to me (with a smile on his face)..."I see you have found your life's work." I will forever treasure that...
I can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, but I can remember exactly where I was standing (at the 14-yard line) on the sidelines when Tone snagged that unbelievable catch at SB 43!
Larry "Boss" Brown. Made two DE's literally quit rushing the passer after the first quarter. They played "draws and screens" for the rest of the game. I guess getting punched in the chest so hard by Larry that their sternum touched their spine will do that to you....Happy
He's the uncrowned single season sack leader regardless...he got robbed in Baltimore...rather than take away from Michael, acknowledge the mistake in Baltimore....give Watt his due!
QB friendly, reads coverages like a QB, can beat any ILB or Safety one-on-one inside the numbers. Blocking has come a long way. Tough and combative. All he needs is more targets...

started the Best of the Batch Foundation 25 years ago, and has provided educational programs for thousands of kids ever since.
Changed the way the Center position was played...dominant like Mike Webster...explosive like Maurkice Pouncey...also baked the most awesome gourmet chocolate chip cookies I ever tasted...Dirt was one of a kind!
23 Personnel 45 years ago! Former TE, now OT, Larry Brown overloaded to the left side next to Jon Kolb, instead of the right side. TE Benny Cunningham on the right side next to OT Ted Peterson. TE Randy Grossman in motion. Awesome!
On this date in the 1978, with the first pick in the NFL Draft, the Houston Oilers select Earl Campbell, from the University of Texas. One of the toughest summamabitches to ever lace โem up,.
I remember as a rookie getting on a team flight for a game, and Joe came on the plane with all four rings on one hand....wow is all I can remember thinking ...
Love this man...pulled me off the field when i wouldn't come off myself because of a concussion. He saved me from myself in a time when a concussion was just another word for headache. Great, and I do mean great friend, and protector of the players!
They don't make them any greater than this man! One of the greatest men I've ever met in my life. An NFL game changer, and a troubled youth life saver!
