Disney! Wheeee!

Yeah, I get that it's a big expense but there is nothing like staying on-site and walking into the parks directly from your hotel. Grand Californian also has its own entrance for DCA, which was super nice and let you beat the rope drop rush. I won't ever stay off property at DLR and it would be dif...

One of Mrs Tif's coworkers and his wife are big Disneyphiles. They were at DLR over the weekend and got to meet Bob Gurr, who was there with someone from the parks but was basically just walking around talking to folks. That is all. I follow him on Instagram and he seems like the nicest guy in the ...

Sounds like all the offensive coaches are getting sacked except for Underwood Yep. Salem is reportedly already gone and it sounds it's just a matter of time before Powell and Borbely are confirmed to be let go as well. It makes sense. The offense stunk out loud last year so I have no issue with the...

Potentially big transfer news at the Chateau de Narduzzi. It sounds like Pitt is very much in the driver's seat for Eli Holstein, a class of 2023 4-star QB who just entered the portal from Alabama and is visiting Pitt this weekend. Holstein is a 6'4", 220lb pro-style QB from Zachary, LA. He was a Ri...

I'm on board. I hoped after 2021 that Narduzzi would realize they need to score points to win. After spending the last 2 seasons watching his guy's offense cough, wheeze, and fart its way to 20 points a game and forcing his defense to play 35-40 minutes every game, it looks like he finally learned t...

Pitt Syracuse in Yankee stadium. These teams have played 79 times. This might be the shittiest matchup of all 79 Yep. That said, I'll probably still watch because I'm an idiot.

Pre-FSU game thoughts... I guess we'll see what to some degree or another what the apologies for the ND post-game comments were worth. Post-ND, I immediately thought this may have been the first team Narduzzi really may have lost. I'm less inclined to believe that now but I'm still not 100% convince...

Glad I missed this one live. At this point, I'm not even sure how angry I would have been had I watched it live, because all this game did was reinforce even more for me the idea that Cignetti cannot be jettisoned from this program quickly enough. 1. Pitt had a QB throw 45 times for 300 yards, 2 TDs...

It's actually impressive how Narduzzi has managed to take this fanbase from the euphoria of a conference title and the best season the program has had in 40+ years to almost complete apathy in just 22 months.

I actually appreciate the Narduzzi feels its up to the kid to determine if they disclose the injury or not.
I didn't realize he did this. It definitely changes my perception of how he handles these things.

Pitt favored by 2 on the road against a forlorn Hokies squad. At least I’ll be able to golf in the afternoon VT's defense absolutely stinks against the run (122nd out of 130 teams) .
