Interesting rumor Re: PITT HC Hire (1 Viewer)

Tell him yourself.

I'd rather wait to see if he comes. There are certainly enough folks around here that he's familiar with. I was well aware typing that, that he'd get a "heads up" to this thread. I'll just wait. Thanks for the idea though

Not aware of anyone here who's connected to him. I'm not saying you're wrong, but this is the first I've heard that.

Agreed. The notion that the Steelers hired their head coach because of the commissioner's idea of what would be nice is laughable. PFT just throws a bunch of crap on the wall and hopes some of it sticks. PFT is an absolute joke.

Hold on there, GB. Are you accusing PFT of making this up from thin air?The report is that the rumor is ciruclating at the Senior Bowl. Whether or not it's true, obviously none of us know, including Florio. But to go from there and to say that Florio is making up the rumor itself, that's a pretty strong accusation.

Dont expect reading comprehension from Godsbrother. You'll be left wanting.PFT is reporting a rumor that theyve heard. They arent saying its true. People who cant interpret what they read, such as Godsbrother, are solely responsible for the bad rep PFT has.

Wow, not sure what I said to get on your bad side Diesel. PFT has a history of reporting rumors, many of which are total hogwash, and they don't credit a source. Maybe they did overhear it or maybe it is pure speculation on their part, I have no way of knowing but I never said they made it up out of whole cloth. What I said is they throw a lot of these rumors out in the hope that one of them sticks and then they can say "see I told you so".In this particular case I find the idea of the Steelers deciding on Grimm as their HC and then changing it at the last minute because the commissioner thought it would be "nice" to hire Tomlin instead to be completely absurd. If you want to believe this fairy tale then go right ahead...
