Steelers hiring McCarthy

I wanted a Steelers lunch box I ended up getting this workman type grey lunchbox. Other kids got ones with Hulk and a thermos inside, etc.

I was pissed. 😅

We only had black and white tv for most of my growing up. It's not that we were real poor or anything, just paycheck to paycheck like everyone in the 70s, but it was more my parents just didn't give a shiit about tv. But that NFL lunchbox I got around the 3rd grade is how I learned the colors of a lot of the teams.

I swear i wore a hand me down tossle cap that was yellow and blue,, i think my aunt made it. It was a hand me down. Tough skin jeans that you had to walk stiff legged because the knees were so reinforced... smh

These were the first ones i remember. They were a big upgrade from the Faux chuck taylor low tops from Murphy mart.

Ok. After the presser I’m rooting for the guy. I mean you can genuinely see how much Pittsburgh and the Steelers mean to him. I reserve the right to change my mind.

If we can get a solid DC, OL coach, WR2, and keep Rodgers (if he comes back )up, I think we can compete for the North next year.

Tough skins were they a Sears deal?

I remember my gym coach told me I wore my Tough skins out from the inside. Big compliment
 
I like how a Steelers "insider" revealed that Shula bombed his first interview with the Steelers making them move quickly to McCarthy.

More like Rooney was not prepared for the fan blowback after he announced the new coach.

They are scrambling and have to make stuff up to throw Shula under the bus to try and justify why they didn't wait a couple of extra days to interview Shula in person before making their other hire.

What qualifies as a Steelers insider these days anyway because there sure seems to be a lot of them?

An "insider" didn't report it, Poni did.

I doubt Shula bombed the interview, however, he may get shut out of a job in a hiring cycle that had nearly one-third of the league looking for a head coach. He's apparently not blowing many teams away either.
 
Shula could have bombed it in Pittsburgh's interview. Rooney himself said he doesn't do rebuild, maybe when they asked him what his plan of attack would be, it was to shake things up and start fresh...that's what the fans want, not what Rooney wants.
