Serious question here, as I heard Madden on his show ripping Narduzzi a new one yesterday, saying he’s stopped going to games because of him, he’s made the program worse, is a jerk, if he and Narduzzi were at a bar more people would flock to Madden and it wouldn’t even be close, etc. Are you all ha...

I currently have an estimated 31 minute wait on Fandango to purchase tickets. Was not expecting that.

I'm at 26 minutes for a Friday showing, but I've seen some posting on Twitter that their queue lines were more than an hour. Yikes.

I badly wanted Red Dead Redemption 2. I have it now. Do you know what I play every night when my daughter goes to bed lately? Super Nintendo. I'm playing through DKC3 now. I have suddenly found myself pulled towards the games that don't require as long of an attention span/time commitment. I find t...

I hope Ford puts it all together this year. If he realizes his potential and pairs with Hamlin at safety, that could be a really solid defensive backfield. Some stuff from Narduzzi today on the LB corps, courtesy of Jim Hammett at PantherLair: - He's been impressed by Elias Reynolds at the Mike LB. ...

I just realized that Ned is third frame of the UPS version of that "Football Fans Having a Rational Conversation" cartoon meme.

Well okay. But now - you can no longer be pissed when Penn State treats Pitt like a little pissant and not playing them in football, because compared to Penn St in football, they most CERTAINLY are.

You're always the one that keeps bringing this up, Ned.

Nerdist sheds some light on something in the trailer. https://nerdist.com/article/avengers-endgame-trailer-hawkeye-kate-bishop/?utm_campaign=coschedule&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=nerdist&utm_content=Did%20the%20AVENGERS:%20ENDGAME%20Trailer%20Just%20Introduce%20a%20YOUNG%20AVENGERS%20Character%3F

The only other thing I'm fairly certain from these trailers is that Clint's family got dusted. Why else show the shot of him and his daughter? I saw someone post on Twitter that it wouldn't be surprising if that's how they open the movie and pretty much wreck everyone in the theater within the first...

2nd watch of the trailer. Yeah...there's going to be a battle for winterfell early on, and Cersei's mugging is a combination of the Golden Company arriving and hearing about mass casualties up north. I don't know if there's literally anything else to glean about the back half of the season. Two det...

Some additional notes from Peak: 1. Chase Pine is listed as a DL on the online roster, but is listed at LB on the camp roster and got reps this morning behind Brightwell. I expect Pine to be moved to SS, FS, CB, DT, OL, TE, RB, FB, WR, kicker and punter before his Pitt career comes to an end. 2. Sta...

Not much surprising on Pitt’s spring roster. V’Lique Carter is listed only as a running back now, and redshirt junior DT Rashad Wheeler has hopped over to the OL wearing 54. Phil Campbell now being officially labeled a linebacker, too. Jim Medure bringing that fullback juice. https://t.co/yimBqy9xs...

I think 9 is a good number for Weaver, especially because I think he'll have legitimate help next season. Patrick Jones will ll likely be the starter at the other DE spot and looks like he could be a pretty good player; he finished third on the team in sacks (4) and tackles for loss (7.5), and that ...

Wow, I wonder how crazy the lines and traffic are going to be for this? I will be hitting up the outfitters for costumes first thing My cousin books trips for Disney through a third-party affiliated company and she knows WDW front and back. Historically speaking, if you're looking for smaller crowd...

Some footbaw news: Brian Batko tweeted this morning that according to Narduzzi, LB Anthony McKee has graduated and will not pursue his fifth year. Phil Campbell will reportedly get some reps at that LB spot during spring ball. Not entirely surprising on either front but I feel bad for McKee. He had ...

New WR coach is Chris Beatty and that's a good one. Beatty had been at Maryland since 2016 and was mostly recently the WR coach, co-OC and assistant head coach for the Terps. We may best know him from his work in 2008-10, when he was RB/Slot WR coach at WVU. There he helped recruit & develop Noel De...

Reports trickling in via Twitter (Bruce Feldman & some others) that Pitt's new OC is Mark Whipple.

IMHO, Jason Candle is not going to leave the head coaching job at Toledo to become OC at Pitt. Candle is about THISCLOSE to being the next big up-and-coming candidate to make the jump from the MACtion to a P5 head coaching job. There ARE rumors that Toledo OC Brian Wright is in the mix as Pitt OC, w...

I like Pitt's chances. Stanford's defense was susceptible to the run so I think Hall and Ollison can have big games even if Stanford tries to go with eight/nine in the box on a consistent basis. On the other side of the ball, Stanford didn't really run the ball particularly well when they had Bryce ...

Bowl game results outside of the playoff games always have to be taken with a grain of salt, especially now that key players who know they're NFL-bound are taking themselves out of playing in the games. Teams go into non-playoff bowl games with different frames of mind all the time. I read Batko's p...

Another ACC Coastal team, who destroyed Pitt, is getting their doors blown off by Wisky (whom PSU beat comfortably at home). Unreal. Wisconsin finished 5-4 in a division won by Northwestern, who got beaten by Duke, who finished 3-5 in the Coastal and gave up 54 points in a loss to Pitt and Pitt's r...

From Brian Batko on Twitter:

"Pat Narduzzi says defensive backs Paris Ford (personal reasons) and Bricen Garner (disciplinary) are the only two players who did not make the trip to El Paso. Added they could still be here later in the week and are with the program."

that is unfortunate and I'm not sure how pitt is going to react to losing his contributions during the 2-4 times he actually appears on the field per game This is kind of where I'm at with it, too. Just yesterday, Alan Saunders posted an article that discussed Ford's position switches. move to corn...

Batko provided a little more info/speculation on Ford's absence via Twitter as well. Said he's going to ask Narduzzi about it when practice ends and the coach meets with the media. Someone tweeted to Batko wondering if this was a "left the team/will transfer" situation. Batko responded by saying he ...

Worst game I've ever witnessed with the eyeballs in my face. Yes there have been bigger heartbreaks, disasters, and disappointments, but this game was pure ****. And yes, Watson is Cavanaugh 2.0, yet somehow seems even less competent. Edit: I love that even Wanny is confused by his offensive game p...
