:08—I said it before and I’ll say it again, winning breeds winning. As “The Emperor” Chuck Noll said, “If the preseason games weren’t important, they wouldn’t play ‘em.” Beat Jacksonville Mannn!
:07—This just in, Janet Jackson is coming. Yeah, I know (Big, big smile here.)
:06—The U.S. Women’s Soccer Team came to Pittsburgh to beat up on Costa Rica 8 – zip. Great job ladies. And by the way, MAKE – THAT – MONEY!
:05—Say what you want Tom Brady, aka “Tom Terrific” is going toe to toe with the NFL on “Deflate-Gate.” Hey, maybe the guy is innocent like he said.

:03—Michael Sam is depressed and is leaving the CFL. The first openly gay pro football player is about to be a trivia question. Word to the wise, sign the contract, get paid, then announce you’re gay. I’m just sayin’!!!
:02—To that point, David Denson, a minor league player for the Brewers, announces he’s gay to become the first active player in baseball. Word to the wise!!!
:01—School starts next week. Let’s get ready to get ready. Make sure they’re safe. Drive carefully and support your high school football teams from a distance. Dad, your time has come and gone!
:00—Here’s to the great Dane Tart, quite possibly one of the greatest athletes out of Donora, Pa., the home of champions, for that matter, the entire Mon-Valley. A great time had by all at the Tart Family Reunion last week. Great to see all my old friends, Dane, Popeye, Rodney, Joyce, Homie, Charlie, Frankie, Valetia and the grand Mrs. Bee Lyons. God Bless you all.
