Latest blog entries from Pittsburgh teams across every league
The Pittsburgh Steelers signed veteran cornerback Darius Slay last offseason, continuing a long trend of signing veteran cornerbacks in the CB2 role. Steven Nelson, Ahkello Witherspoon, Patrick Peterson, Donte Jackson, and Slay all had varying degrees of success in Pittsburgh, but the latter didn’t even make it through a full season. Slay was released on […]

From the team: The Pittsburgh Penguins have signed forward Connor Dewar and defenseman Ilya Solovyov to contract extensions, it was announced today by President of Hockey […]
Nothing about the 2025-26 Pittsburgh Penguins went as anybody expected it to go. When offseason began early in the summer of 2025, there was a belief that the team would not only be bad, but that it would be one of the worst teams in the NHL. There was a common theme nationally that there […]
While the Flyers have generally outperformed expectations over their first series and change in this playoff run, there has been one specific scenario that they just cannot get right. Throughout the first seven first periods they played in the playoffs, the Flyers have failed to score. Despite blitzing the Penguins early on and running out to a 3-0 series lead, the Flyers never really took the play to the Penguins early on. In fact, the Penguins seemed to be the quicker team off the mark...
Part II of the Pittsburgh Steelers-Aaron Rodgers saga may finally be coming to an end. According to Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson of 93.7 The Fan, Rodgers will be in Pittsburgh and is expected to re-sign with the team as soon as this weekend. While many would be quick to write this off as just […]
While most had Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor in the first-round conversation entering the 2026 NFL Draft, not many thought that the Pittsburgh Steelers would be the team to take him off the board — not even Iheanachor’s college coach. This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with Saga Tuitele, Arizona State’s offensive […]
Before the season started, I wrote about five players I was most curious to see. Now that the dust has settled, let’s check in on how that all went. Owen Pickering It was nice to see Pickering earn some NHL time (to the tune of 25 games) in his rookie season, but his NHL stint […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks last night 1-0 in a Paul Skenes gem, but it was Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds that made the history. Reynolds went-2-for-4 in the game, giving him 1,000 hits for his career. It also makes him just the fifth Bucco to go for 1,000 hits, 200 doubles and 140 […]
Kyle Dubas won’t be in the dark to exactly how much cap room the Penguins will have this offseason with official numbers being revealed by the NHL on Wednesday. The salary cap ceiling for 2026-27 will be set at $104 million, an almost 9% increase from last season. Figuring in all the money that will […]
Baseball is undoubtedly a team sport. In fact, I would argue it is the most intensely team-based sport among the major North American sports. Unlike leagues like the NFL or NBA, collecting a few stars on a baseball team can only make a marginal difference. If you have any doubt, baseball history is replete with […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers travelled to Ireland for the first regular season NFL game in the country’s history in 2025, defeating the Minnesota Vikings. It was possible that Pittsburgh was going to have to travel back overseas in 2026, but that will not be happening. The Steelers will face the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2026, and it […]
Joey and Ryan are back and offer their takeaways from the 2026 NFL Draft. While Joey is frustrated by the Steelers’ front office, Ryan offers a different perspective. Plus, the guys discuss which teams they thought drafted best, and which they believe struggled.
The Pittsburgh Steelers were one of the NFL’s most active teams in free agency, acquiring several notable names including cornerback Jamel Dean, safety Jaquan Brisker, and Michael Pittman Jr. But one analyst wants to see them make one more move in the form of a former Baltimore Ravens linebacker. Speaking on CBS Sports, Ryan Wilson […]
It’s not a secret that Pittsburgh Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt has had consecutive down seasons by his standards. After leading the NFL with 19 sacks in 2023, Watt had a combined 18.5 sacks in 2024 and 2025, posting just seven sacks last season after signing a $123 million extension. This has led to many […]
The Pittsburgh Penguins are about to enter what could be (and perhaps should be) a fascinating offseason. Probably one of the more fascinating offseasons they have had in years. There is the Evgeni Malkin situation looming. There is the fact the Penguins, coming off a surprising playoff appearance, have to wrestle with the reality that […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers placed the unrestricted free agent tender on Aaron Rodgers last month, meaning any team that signs him before July 22 would owe Pittsburgh draft compensation, and after that date the Steelers would hold exclusive negotiating rights. Nearly two months into free agency, Rodgers still has not committed to anyone. On Tuesday, an Arizona Cardinals receiver decided he had waited long enough. Kendrick Bourne tagged Rodgers directly on X with a simple message: "Come on we...
Here are your Pens Points for this Wednesday morning… As the debate to re-sign Evgeni Malkin continues to be the dominant news item (and figures to remain that way until a decision is made), two opposing views on Malkin’s future with the Penguins win out above everything else: one argument is that he’s still productive […]
It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time for a weekly Steelers links roundup at BTSC. But first, let’s take a look around the AFC North: Now, onto some Steelers news and discussion: Steelers Could Move Troy Fautanu to New Position (From SI’s Jack Markowski): “Keep him on the right side, and I think that means Troy Fautanu is gonna be […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates family got some bad news, when it was announced that former Bucs outfielder/first baseman/coach and World Series champion Bob Skinner died at age 94 in San Diego. The cause was not released, but when you make it to 94, it could be just about anything. Skinner spent 12 years in the MLB, […]
On the same day that manager Torey Lovullo called the entire starting rotation into his office to tell them they needed to pick up the pace, Dbacks starter Eduardo Rodriguez did just that and then some. ERod put this team on his back tonight shutting down the Pirates offense taking some of the pressure off […]
