To think that only N.E. TD came courtesy of a goofy pass play turnover. As Bill Cowher used to say "It is what it is."

I think the Broncos have a better chance to score when the Patriots have the ball than the Broncs. Gotta create a turnover or it's likely game over. Well, now Denver has the ball on 33 of New England after (not before) punt.

Broncos' WR No. 17 runs out of bounds with 2 blockers ahead of him on 2nd down, drops intermediate pass for first down on 3rd down. Denver might want to try another option

Steelers will have won 2 of the last 46 Super Bowls after this season. Four of the first 14 is historic, no doubt, just never considered 2 in 46 before.

Don't want Patriots winning 7th Super Bowl to take over solo lead, but to be fair, the Steelers haven't won the big game in the last 17 seasons.

Old Penguins friend, Brian Dumoulin, scored his first goal in 50 games for LA Kings tonight. The goal was also his 10th in 210 contests since leaving Pittsburgh in 2023. #JordanStaalTrade

Good for the Cobra commentary at end of post
This old ticket stub, 44 years ago this week. Game featured HOFers Ozzie Smith, Rollie Fingers, Dave Winfield, Willie Stargell, Bert Blyleven, Dave Parker (someday soon). https://t.co/loHzVQgxdj

First glance, Mike McCarthy seems like a safe pick. Keeps $teeler brand rolling. Not a long-term coaching idea like last three coaches. Greenfield's Big Jim's Restaurant definitely trending up. I guess the assistant coordinator hires will play big role. Need someone who can draft

Rich "Goose" Gossage allowed only 5.3 Hits/9 IP in 133 innings in 1977, best ever
Since 1920, 441 Pittsburgh Pirates pitchers have thrown at least 130 innings in one season. Paul Skenes has allowed the 2nd & 3rd fewest Hits/9 IP (6.4 and 6.5, respectively). Can you name the Pirates' pitcher with the fewest hits per nine innings in 130 IP or more since 1920?

Seems like GMBC saying if team signs free agent LHP then trading for 3B is more likely than free agency, such as Suarez.
A fan named Ben directly asked Ben Cherington about the effort to sign Eugenio Suarez and whether pursuit of a left-handed starter affects that. The question and Cherington’s response:

Gonna go 2004. 10-game win streak, Jason Bay ROY, Oliver Perez 239 K's&2.98 ERA. Daryle Ward hits for cycle, Jack Wilson 4.8 WAR w/201 hits & All-Star nod, Craig Wilson 29 HR, Duke, Maholm, Snell on the way. Van Benschoten with tape-measure HR to CF in 2nd gm.

Aside from Pirates 3-year playoff run, what's been your favorite Pirates season since 2000?

Stumbled upon these ticket stubs tonight. Dark season in Bucco history. Fourth of July, Pirates fell 9-1, dropping to 25-50, only 10,102 in attendance. Tony Gwynn went 2-for-4 w/double, Willie Stargell served as Pirates first base coach for 10th time ever. https://t.co/wZnj8XLqOA
