•    Yes, I am at my spot . . . at Heinz Field . . . when the game is serious, I am serious.  None of that perimeter stuff man.  I am in the trenches.
•    This can’t be an I told ya so moment cause I didn’t tell ya so, but I did tell ya this . . . after the first touchdown pass all the haters will love ’em.  Michael Vick stepped up . . . PITTSBURGH – HOW – YA – LIKE – ME – NOW!?!?
•    Speaking of “Vick,” I hope you noticed and heard that it was the radio broadcasters keeping “the stuff” stirred about Vick and his past, not the callers.  Pay attention people . . . pay attention!!!
•    One more time and just for the record, Straight Outta Compton is all that with “Salt on the Popcorn.”  I gave it 4 basketballs   If you’re late to the dance like me, do yourself a favor, catch it on the big screen before it’s gone!  Ice Cube, Easy E, and Dr. Dre were genius.
•    What do Big Ben, Tony Romo, Jay Cutler and Drew Breeze all have in common?  Yes, they’re all injured, but no coincidence that they’re all over 30 years old.  Father Time wins all bets.
•    Here’s to the greatness of the late great Craig “Ironhead” Heyward.  Father of Steeler Cam Heyward.  He would have been 49 years old last week.  A great, great guy I had the pleasure of knowing during my days at Pitt.  That apple fell right next to that tree.
•    Hip – Hip – Hooray to “The Bus.”  Got his Hall of Fame ring tonight.  Well deserved and earned the hard way.
•    City League both here and afar, your time is at hand.  The 2nd Annual Pittsburgh City League High School All-Sports Hall of Fame Awards upcoming on Saturday, October 17, 2015.  Reception 6:00 p.m.; show time at 7:00 p.m., the Wyndham Hotel (Oakland, not Downtown); limited tickets left, 3/4 sold out as we speak.  If you need a reason to come home City League graduates, this is it.  Call 412-628-4856 for more information.  Leave or text your e-mail address and we’ll get it to ya.  Tickets $40 in advance, $50 at the door, but don’t count on any being available at the door.  This is a sell-out people.  And here’s what ya get . . . elaborate hors d’oeuvres spread – celebrity gala featuring Steeler legends Dwayne Woodruff and Robin Cole, World Karate legend and Hall of Famer Master Jacquet Bazemore, NBA Skywalker Myron Brown, door prizes, vendors, autographs, photographs – AND – THE – AFTER – PARTY – AT – THE – SAVOY.  You can’t beat all that with a James Harrison stick!!!  Don’t miss the most historic event in Pittsburgh City League sports history.  City League, it’s your time . . .
