    Max Starks will take over as color commentator for Pittsburgh Steelers radio broadcasts. The team announced Tuesday that the former Super Bowl-winning offensive lineman will take over in the role for Craig Wolfley, who died in March .

    No Cope. No Tunch. No Wolf. No Savaran. No Hillgrove. It's just not the same.

    Well hopefully Starks and company can make their mark. Only one way to find out.

    Unfortunately true. I grew up to them. I think Max will do great, but he has massive shoes to fill.

    I agree, Max's post game shows are very good.

    Time moves on. I remember when Screamin’ Joe Tucker did play by play. Jack Fleming replaced him.
    Did anyone know that Bill Cullen was a Steelers announcer in the 1930s before he left for New York City?

    I think Max will be alright, but I sure do miss Cope and Fleming

    I barely remember him myself but he was good. He was sports director at one radio station and the broadcast rights went to another station. They let him go and we got Myron and Jack, and in a few short years the team got very good. We did ok there!

    I use to turn TV sound down so I could listen to radio broadcast. Loved Cope. I've listened to current games at Steelers.com but it is behind the actual game. On the GDT someone will say TD and I'll still be at 3rd and goal on the radio.

    I do understand the benefits of all this technology but I'm a firm believer at some point it is going to bite our species in the ass.

    One thing is for sure. Tomlin will never be an announcer. He never says **** and when he does speak it is all twisted for your own interpretation.
