Robert Hassell III was a top 20 prospect. In all of baseball. A legit phenom. The Pirates just got him for cash. Great buy low move by Ben Cherington.

The Pirates benched Oneil Cruz to play a centerfielder who can actually catch the ball. Novel concept.

This is the most impressive home run in PNC Park history. Sammy Sosa. Almost 500 feet. Made Valdez HR today look like an infield fly. What a bomb.

Worst double play ever. When will the Pirates fire Tony Beasley? His decision-making at third base is atrocious.

Kaleb Johnson doesn’t know the f—king rule. Just runs off the field. Touchdown Seahawks. I’d bench him until Halloween.

Must see: Required viewing for George Pickens apologists. Drops. Arguing with Steelers fans. Needing multiple teammates to talk to him about getting his head in the game. Not a WR1. Can’t pay him. Sorry.

2 years ago. Bills player Shaq Lawson shoved an Eagles fan in Philly. No suspension. No fine. How is this different from DK Metcalf situation? It’s not.

This isn’t even a catch. But this play right here tells you everything you need to know about DK Metcalf. UNREAL effort. Must watch.

Mitch Keller used to be a ground ball pitcher. Now he’s serving up homers left and right. Everything is hit in the air. This pitching coach stinks. He’s trying to justify his existence by changing everyone and everything. Bad bad bad.

Konnor Griffin looks good to go. He is the face of the franchise. And by the end of the year will be a top 3 shortstop in baseball.

Bryan Reynolds just made the catch of the year. To rob Ohtani. If they comeback and beat Ohtani. And turn their season around. We’ll be talking about this play for years.

I’ve been thinking a lot about Chris Johnson today. Here’s the play I’ll always remember from his career. When he turned on the jets and scored a touchdown in 2008 to beat the eventual Super Bowl champion Steelers. What a special talent.

Not only is Ryan O’Hearn having an excellent year. But he’s extremely likeable. Great example in the clubhouse for younger guys. Accountable. Hard worker. A+ signing.

DK Metcalf tells Steelers media that he and Aaron Rodgers share a bathroom at Saint Vincent College. There’s something quaint about 2 guys who have made $500 million having to use the same crapper. It warms my heart:

Great All-Star Game moment: 20 years ago in Pittsburgh. A local man got swings at $1 million. Thanks to Taco Bell. It was electric. Baseball needs to bring this back.

For the record I would not rush Seth Hernandez to the majors this year. However. Listen to his first answer. He’s willing to pitch in the bullpen. Mlodzinski was not. Jones balked at it. I think this kid is savvy enough to send a message. I’ll do whatever.

This Pirates top pick Derek Curiel had one of the smartest plays in college baseball. He waited at home plate. Standing there. Until the lead runner touched home. And alerted him to touch the plate. Brilliant.

This is honestly one of the smartest plays I’ve ever seen by a quarterback. Rodgers throwing it into the ground. With Warren there. No fumble. No sack. No grounding. Steelers got 3 points out of it. Football genius.

Significant: TJ Watt admits he’ll be moving around to both edge rusher spots this year. Because the system makes him do it. Tomlin’s didn’t. So he could tell the coaches to screw off. This would be big.

How awesome is this. Sid’s out for a month. And here he is at the Penguins youth clinic. Volunteering his time. Taping a kid’s stick. What a class act. Best hockey ambassador there is.

Hot damn: Big Ben says he’s “extremely nervous” about Drew Allar. Hes in disbelief that the Steelers need to teach him things quarterbacks learn in youth camps. Allar is a project that will never work. IMO.

Aaron Rodgers confirmed that Calvin Austin III screwed up royally on end zone interception. But Rodgers criticized him respectfully professionally. That would have made it 21-14 Steelers. Bad mistake by Austin.

I’m at the NEW Pittsburgh Airport. It’s great BTW. But I have one pet peeve. The Super Bowl dates are all wrong. 1980 2006 2009. It should be the season year. Not the year the Super Bowl itself got played. Right?

Paul Skenes brought the entire Air Force baseball team to Houston to watch him pitch for Team USA vs Mexico. Not only is Skenes the best Pirates pitcher of all-time. He’s also a total class act. Can’t ask for anything more.

With all due respect to one of my old favorites Lindy Ruff. How is Dan Muse not the coach of the year? Buffalo was viewed as playoff contender. The Penguins a #1 pick contender. It should be no contest.
