Enjoy the Josh Bell ride while it lasts. Going into Sunday’s game against the Dodgers, Bell had the second highest batting average in Major League Baseball at .339, he was second in RBIs with 47 and tied for fifth in home runs with 16. Bell is on pace to hit...

OK, enough with the outdoor games. Like so many other things, playing an NHL regular-season game in a football stadium was a good idea that has been beaten to death. Saturday in Philadelphia turned out to be an ugly night for the Penguins because of the final score and the...

The word is that Antonio Brown and Steelers president Art Rooney II will meet face-to-face in Florida this week, possibly at Brown’s home. If so, the conversation could/should go something like this. ROONEY: Antonio, nice place you got here. Great view. Not sure if it was a good idea to...

You could say the Alliance of American Football kicked off its inaugural season Saturday night, but you’d be lying. They don’t kickoff.

Pittsburgh always has been a football town. How many times have you heard that? It’s probably the consensus among the national media, but it’s only an accepted truth in Western Pennsylvania by people who are not old enough to remember when it clearly wasn’t.

Art Rooney II is right. Things could have been a lot different in the AFC North if not for the kicker. There was that blocked field goal in overtime in Week 1 that led to a tie, and then there was that loss by three points when the kicker missed...

Antonio Brown, the greatest wide receiver in Steelers history … Hold on a minute. It seems to have become a requirement to include the declaration that Brown is the Steelers’ greatest receiver ever in any story about his most recent immature, narcissistic, selfish, stupid behavior. If you’d like to make...

You’d have to be pretty old or dead to remember the last time the Steelers fired a head coach. Everybody knows the Steelers like to hold on to their head coaches, and they’ve only had three in the last 50 years, but what’s even more amazing is they haven’t fired...
