Orioles' starting lineup from Game 1 of the 2023 ALDS:
LF Austin Hays (now: CHW)
C Adley Rutschman (BOS)

2B Jordan Westburg (injured)
CF Cedric Mullins (TB)
3B Ramón Urías (STL)
So in return for the first of four years of tanking, the Orioles get zero playoff wins and the prospects from the Red Sox. Make it make sense. Well, the ownership at that time made a lot of money.
It'll probably never happen, but Mike Tomlin, and any of the other old school coaches, belong in a place where their skill set will be most effective and most appreciated. And that would be with a college team. The sophistication of the modern NFL has passed them by. Go where they could use his discipline and fundamentals. I don't see him in the executive offices, and I sure don't see him on TV! Other than his bizarre, proverbs and aphorisms, I haven't heard him say 10 words in 10 years! He would be perfect for a college team. Wouldn't it have been interesting if he'd gotten the Michigan gig? @EvCoRadio@msmallmon
Steelers fans now: Had to happen. Long past time. I’d rather have a season truly suck than have another year of 10-7 like this.
Steelers fans 3 weeks into the season that actually sucks:
Can we fucking stop mentioning Burrow when talking about how shocking it is that X qb isn’t in the playoffs. It’s shocking for Mahomes. It’s surprising for Lamar. Joe fucking Burrow made the playoffs twice in 6 years. He’s missed them more than he’s made them. Cut the shit.
Exhausting. Not allowed excitement after division clinching wins vs heated rivals now. Gotta celebrate in a specific way or not at all because in an alternate universe, he could have lost.
btw respectfully if you have ever switched your team allegiance on a whim because you just decided that you like players on another team more we are not the same and i fundamentally respect you less as a sports fan
There have been over 60,000 field-goal attempts in NFL history.
Tyler Loop's miss on Sunday night is the only one of those attempts that came as time expired in the fourth quarter in the final week with both teams' playoff hopes resting solely on the result of his kick.
A Pittsburgh sports team could have its season defined by a player punching a fan (wearing a blue wig, who later held a press conference) and its best player suffering a collapsed lung due to a dry-needling procedure gone awry.
And, somehow, it's not the Pirates. Big upset.
it's hilarious to me that people think the Steelers lost the game because they strategized how to keep Myles Garrett from sacking the QB
hint: the Steelers have even less of a chance to win if Myles Garrett is out here sacking Aaron Rodgers left & right
