We can collectively scream until we’re blue in the face about the coaching decisions that often lead to the tight situations we find ourselves in, and there was a lot of that in this Ravens matchup, but the results speak for themselves - at least in the regular season.

At 36 years old, I feel confident in saying that Cameron Heyward is the best interior defensive lineman in the National Football League right now; certainly against the run.

The hate runs really deep for me, and If I have to experience back-to-back years of them bouncing us from contention, I may actually cry real tears.
This isn’t meant to be an end-of-season-type post; we’re not there yet. But, considering last week’s loss in Cleveland, and much of this season as a whole, we once again find ourselves at the mercy of unreliable quarterback play.
Welp, I just got done watching the Ravens/Packers Saturday Night Football game. I was hoping I’d get to celebrate an early division win, but alas, Derrick Henry had other plans…
The Pittsburgh Steelers stormed Motor City and secured a victory over a desperate Lions team, 29-24 further bolstering their lead in the AFC North.
They’re 7.5 point favorites right now, and honestly, that feels about right. I’m not in the business of straight up predicting Steelers losses, but I’ll be watching this one with a grain of salt.
Jaylen Warren’s first instinct is to get north/south, whereas Gainwell has a propensity to look for the cutback lane, to devastating effect might I add. Shahtaht to Adam Thielen (#16) for the underrated block on the play above.
It’s December, though, so everything’s a must-win at this point. OH, and they’re honoring Ben Roethlisberger, Maurkice Pouncey, and Joey Porter at half time, so if we drop the ball in front of them, I’ll be wildly upset. Handle business.
Pittsburgh Stuff
Besides some cool, individual performances and accolades, the Pirates’ 2025 season has been a dumpster fire. I figure even those that came into the season with the most modest of expectations are still disgusted with what has taken place so far. For me personally, I find solace in the fact that the Pirates lack of talent and spending is a national talking point, and that the city of Pittsburgh is not taking it easy on Bob Nutting.
Don’t look now, but the Pirates have won 8 of their last 10 games, and sit just a half game back from the final wild card spot, which is currently held by the Mets.
I urge all of yinz to look at the images in the poster, and call the numbers at the bottom if you have any information on her whereabouts.

I had to get the full story from the horse’s mouth. In this case, the horse is Jason Kirin, a writer and researcher of Pittsburgh’s history of violence against sex workers; work he does in honor of his grandmother, Shirley Cavanaugh, who is the subject of the aforementioned book.
On a cold winter day in 1986, Frank Furko walked into the Animal Rescue League in Pittsburgh, thinking he would take a look at the dogs and maybe adopt one if he could find one that was nice. While he was there, a little, pudgy, orange tabby cat caught his eye.
By the end of the day on March 13th, nearly two feet of snow covered the region, courtesy of what is now referred to as the Storm of the Century.
