    That's pretty funny since you are the baby crying first, protecting your precious coach .

    Favorite Hillgrove quipt: "Back when I started announcing sports so long ago, the Dead Sea wasn't even sick yet. "

    Guess this means Pitt FB and hoops too?

    Bob Prince, Jack Fleming and now Hillgrove. What a lineup.:thumbs_up:

    First Lang and now Hillgrove. Please Lord don't let it be that gas bag Bob Pompeani, I turn off the sound for pre season games.
    The Pens announcers' voices sound like characterless teenage boys.
    Sad day.

    I don’t think I would go with crying there. It was a funny joke about the incessant complaining about Tomlin.

    I think we all agree Tomlin has to tighten things up, but to read about it from some in every thread just gets old.

    It's my understanding that he will still be doing the Pitt games.

    This post has nothing to do with Tomlin and you climb out from under your troll bridge to turn it into a bash Tomlin thread

    I was at a golf outing drinking too much beer with Bill Hillgrove when his phone rang

    A helicopter landed on an area of the property Bill walked over to it and was handed a microphone and a guy got of the helicopter with a camera and stuck it in Bill’s face

    Then Bill came back and continued drinking

    He is a nice guy

    What makes a person a troll ? Someone who disagrees with you ?

    I have been a Steelers fan longer than you have been alive and Im from Pittsburgh.
    You probably live in Cleveland.
