George Pickens: "I was just trying to prevent the Tank Dell situation...I ain't want to get an injury. When you stay up on those blocks you can get ran up on. That's the reason."
Hines Ward:
@mattynice521
Yeah no shit. It’s a mentality thing. Hines was tough he obviously would’ve adjusted to the modern rule book and still given A+ effort on every snap
Don't look now but Greg Schiano has a top 10 2025 recruiting class at Rutgers. Is the NYC proximity finally paying off for the Big Ten and could Penn State suddenly have an East Coast conference rival with Rutgers winning the NIL era?
@TrueAmericanOH
Yeah I’ve watched football in the last 10 years I get it. However, the rules don’t force players to do absolutely nothing when their teammate has a chance to score
Insane to see
@dllancerbball
@DeerLakesAth
in the state championship game today. Was proud to coach that fifth grade undefeated season. Go win it all today boys! Let’s go DL!
@KDPomp
PFF doesn’t really look at the numbers at all. They grade each play as positive or negative. Therefore a perfectly accurate pass that was dropped would be a plus for the QB while a bad pass that was behind the receiver but was caught would be a negative for the QB
Walter Clayton Jr. sends it to OT and Kentucky loses to an unranked SEC opponent for the second time in 8 days. Didn’t have Justin Edwards or DJ Wagner, but Kentucky’s youth is showing.
Potential Cinderella story: Oakland’s head coach of 40 years, Greg Kampe has coached both Skip Townsend and his son Trey, the Horizon League Player of the Year. Trey had 38 to get the Golden Grizzlies into the big dance and will be a problem for Kentucky.
Beau Pribula is not a better quarterback than Drew Allar, but he's a better fit for the offense that James Franklin and Mike Yurcich built and that's a big big problem.
I’m thankful I got the chance to tell the story of how
@AdamBreneman81
went from Penn State tight end with NFL aspirations to one of the biggest up-and-coming names in sports media. Check it out:
Gary Bettman doesn't get a lot right, but being the first league to get to Vegas was an incredible move and making sure that team would be good right away was even better. Tonight is as much a win for the NHL as it is Vegas. Knights fans shouldn't even boo the commish.

If the parents in Christmas movies don’t believe in Santa, but they don’t put the presents under the tree. Then who the hell do they think breaks into their house every year, and why are they okay with it.

How do the Steelers slow down the Chiefs?
"I don't think any three of those guys, or Marcus Allen, can matchup very well with Travis Kelce, so it's kind of just a matter of who do you want to put out there to get beat 1-on-1" -
@BrianBatko
don’t want an argument but a logical reasoning would be dope. if we say having tighter gun laws would have prevented this from happening, who’s to say the deranged terrorist who did this wouldn’t have found an illegal way to get his hands on a gun?
Starting something new, so go check out the podcast. First episode featuring
@ChrisMuellerPGH
but we’re talking Pittsburgh sports every week on The Point.
The Steelers offense have struggled under Matt Canada, and
@cale_berger
thinks that Big Ben has been the solution.
"They seem to have been their best when Ben Roethlisberger is in control and just calling the plays and running the show himself."
In the postgame presser, Lane Kiffin admits that his assistant Fisher Ray started the troll account that posted fake quotes from Penn State players as bulletin board material... Weird, but I appreciate the transparency I guess?
One of the great things about Pittsburgh sports is the unity. They all wear black and gold, they all play right downtown, and they all play at stadiums named after Pittsburgh companies. PNC Park, PPG Paints Arena, and HEINZ FIELD
@hananh_11
Terrible tweet 0 our of 10 I’m currently on a crusade to remind Pittsburgh of how awful Fleury was in the playoffs from 2010-2015. We literally had Tomas Vokoun start playoffs games because he was so bad. Murray is literally 2 for 3 in winning cups in his career.
@AndJohn00
I want Penix to end up in LA with McVay so badly. He’d be throwing beautiful deep over routes to Cooper Kupp like seven times a game. (Once Stafford’s body gives up)
Earlier today, the Deer Lakes cross country team held its annual banquet at the North Park Lounge Clubhouse on Route 8. Josh Klemmensen received a First Team All Alle-Kiski Valley Award, Josh Yourish was named to the Second Team and Sonnet Robertson was Honorable Mention.
Say it with me everyone:

Why is this fox broadcast just kinda shitting on Caitlin Clark and talking about Diana Taurasi and Sheryl Miller being better? Can’t we just take a moment to celebrate her greatness?
