    “Best crawfish in New Orleans,” said Ralph “Plumber” Berlin, then the head trainer for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tunch and I immediately perked up our ears, because Ralph had never given us a bum steer when it came to fine food in any of the NFL cities we played in. It was late 80′s and Tunch [...]

      Ziggy Hood has struggled a little of late with an ankle issue. His production has been down from, i’m sure what he expected from himself. Part of the pro game is learning how to play even when your nicked up a little, and be just as productive as when your 100%. As with everything when [...]

        Aaron Smith

        On October 27, 2010 By

        I saw Aaron Smith in the post-game Miami locker room and from his facial expression I knew it was bad news. We kibitzed a bit, and then Aaron headed off to face the media.

        No, his season isn’t officially done, but the weight of his injury and the once again monumental uphill battle of injury, surgery and [...]

        The Steelers pulled out a controversial close win. But a win is a win and going into the hot sun life stadium against a team desperate to win a home game they played well enough to deserve the win. Today, we podcast the post game coverage of what I saw from the sidelines. Joining Frank and I in studio is the man who runs talent network, inc. the boss David Sedelmeier.

            Folks no podcast this weekend; off to Miami to cover the Steelers.  It was a great shoot-out this past Thursday night at the Chartiers Valley stadium, the home away from home field of the Seton LaSalle Rebels.  Big plays, big gains and big points were on the menu as two undefeated Class-AA teams battled down [...]

              Today on “In The Lockerroom with Tunch and Wolf” we had as one of our guests Steelers President Art Rooney II. Art has come out in support of James Harrison and his appeal to rescind the $75,000 fine. As these things often do, it conjured up a memory of Tunch and my playing days back in the 80′s when [...]

                NFL Backed Into a Corner?

                On October 21, 2010 By

                Has the NFL backed itself into a corner after laying down the law with the fines and throwing out the possibility of handing out suspensions?Especially after not coming out and saying definitively of the three big hits over the weekend which one(s) were deemed excessive.

                The guys in New York have the clicker at their [...]

                  Looking at the Hits

                  On October 20, 2010 By

                  If you look at all three hits that got fined by the NFL, it goes like this in my humble opinion.

                  Brandon Meriweather on Todd Heap. Should be penalized and fined. A possible suspension because it had all the elements involved. Defenseless receiver, launching and leading with the helmet. Bill Belicheck sat Brandon’s butt on the bench for [...]

                    I’m all for player safety. I mean who isn’t? I’m also for staying true to the integrity of the game. There is an element of danger that the game brings with it. So does Boxing, Nascar and Hockey among other sports where athletes put it on the line and push the edge. When you sign your name to the [...]

                    Big Ben is Back and the Browns are still the Browns. It was a head banging game and the young colt survived.
