As an altar boy years ago, he received free tickets Pirates' games, leading to a lifelong passion for the game and his faith. Father Bill Schwartz, chaplain for the Pittsburgh Pirates, shares his love for baseball and a bit of his vocation story.

This is Oakmont. This is Pittsburgh. This is Sunday at the U.S. Open.

I used to be mad that SNPittsburgh was moved to an “add on” package, but with how the Pirates are doing and the Penguins being ok with mediocrity, I’m glad that I didn’t get that subscription!

Hope Tomlin walking away…err, storming off podium when asked about his future - is his last act as HC. He preaches to “rise above” & “smile in the face of adversity” well when you’re 0-for-6 in the postseason, you man up & answer if your words are anything but platitudes.

[Paul Alexander @Palexander44]

Can someone please remind me what the standard is. Can someone please help me understand how and why the national media believes Mike Tomlin is a great coach. That shit is tired. The narrative is impossible to substantiate. This team is a rudderless ship.

[Doug @DBeasock]

All we will hear all week from Tomlin “Next man up, standard is the standard, don’t live in fears, smile in face of adversity, make no excuses, they get paid too”

Where is the standard, Where is it Mike? We need a search party cause this ain’t it.. hasn’t been at all this year.

[Doug @DBeasock]

Ok Pittsburgh, Stop me if you’ve heard this one… an uninspired OC and a hard-headed HC walk into the facility on South Water St, which direction do they go? … if you said it doesn’t matter because BOTH #Pitt and the #Steelers have this issue, you’re correct & it’s maddening!

Why Ryan Clark is the best at what he does. Please watch.

The story of the Steeler Season…it’s been the same all year: ineptitude on Offense gives your Defense no time to rest, tired D gets exposed & gives up points. Lots of soul searching this off-season & hope for something better in the years to come. Until then LETS GO PENS!

[Doug @DBeasock]

All the people openly rooting for Jacksonville seem to forget the Steelers have to play on the road against a rival… easier said than done. Maybe if you take care of business against lesser teams, you’re not begging the bottom of the league to pull a shocker to get you in.

[Doug @DBeasock]

The infuriating thing about the Steelers is their bravado and insistence that their long-held way is the only way to win. Being nearly shut out in the first half of 5 straight, but “the standard is the standard” - can we get a new standard, please?!

If “the standard is the standard” what the Steelers call the standard is less than acceptable… when is it time to change “the standard”?

[Doug @DBeasock]

In honor of Mike Lange announcing retirement, what are some of your favorite goal call catch phrases. Or better yet one you wish he had used?

[Doug @DBeasock]

Pittsburgh will find any angle they can to be connected to big news stories. News: “we found a great uncle and a cousin twice removed cheering an Olympian to gold… we go live now to Blawnox..”

[Doug @DBeasock]

With every round the NY Islanders advance, the less the Pens losing to them stings… Or is that just the narrative from Pittsburgh hockey Twitter?! #IllHangUpAndListen
