His last name is Johnson. Fools. Chad answered some questions or something for XBOX for some reason. Don’t you love how I know ALL the details? Some dude ended up asking him if he’d ever consider playing for the Steelers if given the opportunity. Chad’s response: “I think not. I think not. That would just […]

Mosaics are nuts. I find it fascinating that people can create large images while focusing on the seemingly insignificant little parts. Mosaics where the ingredients are individual pictures rather than colored squares or something are even nuttier. Take this Barry Bonds rookie card poster for example. You could give me a million pieces of colored […]

Earlier this week, we looked at the lingering effects of MLB players who crossed picket lines during the 1994/95 baseball strike. These scab players, who were young guys and minor leaguers that took a chance to prove themselves on a larger stage by joining replacement rosters, are now forever banned from entering the MLBPA. As such, […]

Four words. Behind. The. Scenes. Footage. And you better believe that this look into the making of the night terror-inducing Super Bowl ad contains a live midget as well as Troy in full-on Green Man charades. TruTV decided to make sure you remember their Super Bowl investment by scorching these evil images into your brain. […]

This comes from Brad at This Is Getting Old. He says that: “I got this T-shirt in June of 2008 after the Bucs played the Yankees. Some lady was selling them for $5 on the Clemente Bridge. It’s a picture of Maz hitting the most famous home run in World Series history.” The Clemente Bridge […]

Thanks to Penshead for sending this over. If Jerome is from Detroit, then why isn’t he hawking Little Caesar’s rather than grocery store staple DiGiorno? Also, I looked at the DiGiorno wiki page to get some details about the brand, and stumbled across the most bizarre info relating to any product. How does this get included […]

Remember Troy Polamalu’s turn as IASIP’s Green Man? Turns out it was just to capture his head, so video-editing nerds could put it onto a midget body. Still reading? Via my buddy Trey comes word that Troy’s Super Bowl ad is complete, and readily available to view. If you want. Because that thing in the […]

Amazingly, this is different from the previous 17 years, when the Pirates’ roster has been primarily made up of random players. And no, the random Pirate in upcoming baseball video games is not an awesome pirate like Cornelis Jol…I’m talking full-on Pittsburgh Piracy. Kotaku recently profiled 5 current MLBers who have not and will never appear […]

That’s a screenshot of LaMarr Woodley’s official website. There’s newsblasts all over that thing announcing LaMarr as a Pro Bowler, as anyone who takes the time to go to his site would probably be all about knowing that kinda stuff. And then, after all the official news about LaMarr that’s required reading for Woodley fans, […]

From Craigslist via Deadspin. If you buy this, you need to immediately go play some street hockey, score the OT game winner and run into your house and belly-flop onto the couch while your family and friends pile on top.

You know the drill…you’re kicking back after a long day of work, flipping through the channels while enjoying a well-deserved cold one when you stop and immediately think…”this could use like 100% more Crosby.” Waitaminute…didn’t we just do this? We know that Crosby lives with and emulates Lemieux, but now he’s taking it to an […]

Here’s the second of two unlicensed pieces of Pittsburgh sports merchandise forwarded over from Karissa. But since it’s two pieces in one, I guess this is the second and third things she sent. Or whatever. As was the case with the scarf she sent, this hat was bought at a bar. Coolest bar ever? From […]

So it appears that teams that wear the color red like to rip off classic commercials featuring Pittsburgh sports stars. And if Troy Polamalu is involved, it increases the rip-off likelihood by 100%. Jimmy Rollins of the Phillies made some horrible commercial in the mold of the awesome Mean Joe Greene Coca-Cola commercial. You’ll remember that […]

Are you in grades 4 thru 9 and want to go to a football camp sponsored by former Steeler Jerome Bettis but don’t have asthma? Tough luck. Maybe you should think about getting that disease. Video here. Mad props to Jerome and Children’s Hospital.

You know the drill…you’re kicking back after a long day of work, flipping through the channels while enjoying a well-deserved cold one when you stop and immediately think…”this could use like 100% more Lemieux.” We’ve all been there, so don’t think you’re alone, friend. Thankfully, the ever-reliable Etsy has you covered. You can buy Lemieux […]
