Bernadette Devlin's reply to being dubbed "unladylike" for punching Reg Maudling in protest of Bloody Sunday: "Unladylike? There's a young girl whose body was carried out of the Bogside this morning. She was shot in the back by the Paras. They didn't ask her if she was a lady."

Steelers might not take long to find a replacement, if history is any indication. They hired Chuck Noll on Jan. 27, 1969; Bill Cowher on Jan. 21, 1992; and Mike Tomlin on Jan. 22, 2007.

Legend. Hate to hear this. #GratefulDead
It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Bobby Weir. We send him off the way he sent so many of us on our way: with a farewell that isn’t an ending, but a blessing. A reward for a life worth livin'. https://t.co/2qdBbh80v1 📸 Chloe Weir
