This is why we lose so much. Too many people in our own party are idealistic and won’t pinch their nose and swallow to get less than ideal candidate elected versus going rogue and allowing the absolute worst people to get elected.

As much as Fetterman sucks he’s better than what Oz would’ve been.

Don’t surround yourself with negative energy of this sloppy football game. Hopefully you got to ride spaceship earth with its surprise reopening today.

Between this and the patriot food, bullshit, who the hell are they marketing to during this game?

I feel like this is the shit that never happens for us. Glad we were able to get a last second score.

you ever read a Taylor Swift lyric and think this is the dumbest shit I've read but then you actually hear the song and IMMEDIATELY tattoo "13" on your forearm? Hahaha me neither

Looks to me like you were on the side of Charlie Kirk voting in favor of that bullshit day of remembrance for him. Dick move bro.

They deserve to be shit on. However during a local NFL pregame radio show, the discussion should be on the Steelers/ Seahawks and the NFL, not on yesterday’s game.

Our city by far has some of the worst sports media in the country. Like the one jackass who is so bad at his job he had to be told that Cam Hayward wasn’t practicing and couldn’t figure out on his own one of the most prominent players was holding in.

I hope the Narduzzi retirement rumors are true. What an embarrassing loss

Sometimes people die or are killed, sometimes those people are horrible pieces of shit whose existence actively harms society. You don’t have to grovel and give them a eulogy every time they die or are killed. Shit happens, just say it’s illegal to commit murder and move on.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

They're over performing because we hate the state of the world and are motivated to vote, not because Dems have a clear message that we support.

We turned out for Obama because of hope and change. Bernie had a movement for the future. Being anti-trump isn't a winning long term message.

Fuck off with this bullshit NYT style headline. You're supposed to be better than this. Just say "Seed oils are safe despite another RFK lie".

Damn. I didn’t realize the higher level hotels received unlimited express passes. I thought it was just a one time pass.

If the collateral damage to not welcoming Nazis and fascists here is that we lose some right wing voices, then that’s a trade I’ll make every fucking day.

Hear me out. We hire this guy to help raise money for the Pitt NIL collective and teach statistics to Pitt students. (If you don’t want to watch the video he’s a yinzer and the most successful sports gambler ever).
