Hey friends,

I hurt my ribs doing speed tubing yesterday...

So I worked this morning, I'm spent, and it only hurts when I laugh and breathe, but drinking helps!

1.Yueng Lager
2) Sierra Nevada
3) Peach Brandy from Gettysburg Distillery

Gettysburg Distillery is the same as Gettysburg brewery. Their spirits are subpurb, their beer is meh, though I did love their mint chocolate stout.

Let's talk roster moves, rehabbing from a dumb rib injury, and college football, I have the PSU game in another window!
 
I was going to go to a beer and wing party tonight, but the ribs are keeping me here with my Steeler Nation Family!!
 
Chickillo over Adams? What do you think?
 
Who gets cut when Bell returns?

Ever tried Sausage wrapped with Bacon on a grill? don't sleep on it ! (don't get a greasy type bacon as it will flame up)

Speed tubing?

Are the Steelers bringing in anyone else? post roster cuts?

I am putting you to work in your Q & A today !

They must like Chick enough I guess. Or K A simply just didn't show enough.

I have a deep, visceral disdain watching Chickillo rush the QB. He seems to run up to the o-lineman and is content to play pitty patty, kinda dancing in one place, not moving forward or backwards. He seems to be in a constant state of inertia. He's now one of four OLB's on the roster, so I hope he breaks through the LOS at some point this season. I'll believe it when i see it with my own two eyes. Keon Adams at least seemed to have the right idea in trying the get around the guy in front of him. I dunno...I just figured they'd give up on Chick at some point, clearly we're not there yet.

I really like Adams, But I also like Chickillo. I'll tell you what though, I like OA better, and the Steelers made the exact right call keeping him!!

Well if they use Ola as a pass rushing specialist perhaps that softens Chickillo's stay.

He's even worse against the run. If I can find any gifs of him getting blocked/washed out of plays I will post them, but believe me, I've seen it enough times with my own two eyes.

I thought the Steelers would put someone on IR, but they waived Golden.

I don't think anyone is injured enough to be IRed, but I think Ridley gets cut. After that, perhaps Dangerfield.

Never had a bacon wrapped sausauge, but it sounds life changing!!

Yes, I was drug on a tube at about 40mph...

I don't see the Steelers bringing in anyone else, unless Xman or McDonald are hurt. Then perhaps a TE, but I think this roster is one of the deepest and most talented in years!

I think it came down to, who do you like better:

Adams or Fort? I think the Steelers made the right call when you think about it that way.

I will agree, I liked Keon more than Chick, but they weren't that far apart IMHO. I also know Adams is PS eligible, since he was IRed last season. He'll be PSed if he clears waivers.

Again, I think Chick and Adams are very close. From a roster perspective, Adams is PS eligible, and Chick isn't. Steelers like both and are trying to keep both. And this is the best way to do so, without losing someone else.
 
Footage.

Holy crap, Cope. Please tell me you were drunk prior to thinking that was a good idea, lol.
 
Also got caught in a thunderstorm coming back to the slip. 30 ft visibility. It was INSANE!!!
 
PSU in OT, watching it now. What a game!

I am partial to both the Hefeweissbier and the Hefeweissbier Dunkel, but everyone I have given the Korbinian to has loved it.

They are the oldest beer in the world, located in Germany, of course every german style they do is the gold standard. Love Dunkels!

Dunkelweissens are my favorite!
