Mike Tomlin was just 34 years old when he was named head coach of the Steelers way back in 2007, and it didn’t take him long to become one of the best in the league.
This year will be his 17th season calling the shots for one of the most storied franchises in all of sports. It’s been a very impressive run that isn’t showing any signs of nearing an end any time soon.
If you need more proof of that then watch this powerful video below of Tomlin delivering an important speech to his players this week during minicamp.

A look inside the Kansas City Chiefs’ stunning Super Bowl LVII rings
To the victor go the spoils.
That was true on Thursday night, when the Kansas City Chiefs received their Super Bowl rings for winning Super Bowl LVII. The team received them following a red carpet ceremony, and the rings are filled with diamonds, rubies, and a whole host of details about the team, their season, and the franchise’s history:

Mike Dunleavy Jr., a former 15-year NBA player who began his career with the Warriors from 2002 to ’07, will be the team’s next general manager, according to a report by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
After retiring as a player in 2017, Dunleavy joined the Golden State franchise as a scout in 2018, and has been climbing up the front office ranks, and was promoted to vice president of basketball operations in 2021.
He will replace Bob Myers, the architect of the Warriors dynasty that has won four NBA titles.
My 7-year-old son and I are in New Jersey, and we’re about to witness a miracle.
It is a crisp December day, the sky is Honolulu blue and the Detroit Lions are going to win the game. We cannot know this, of course—in fact my son and I, die-hard Lions fans (is there any other kind?), are pretty damn convinced they’re going to lose. Down four points with two minutes left, Detroit is facing fourth-and-inches just shy of midfield against a staunch Jets defense, so it’s not looking good. Ollie even says it to me, “They’re going to lose, Daddy.
It’s been a tough week for injuries, and no doubt fantasy managers will be looking to the waiver wire this weekend. If you’re looking for a replacement for Yordan Alvarez, Pete Alonso or Vinnie Pasquantino, there are a few options below that could fit the bill.
If you missed out on Elly De La Cruz two weeks ago, my advice is to be sure you put in a claim for the new Giants outfielder Luis Matos. Especially in keeper leagues, Matos should be a priority. Nolan Jones is also an interesting young player to consider.
Let’s get to it.
Videos have surfaced of Conor McGregor with the woman accusing him of sexual assault, and they don’t match the initial claims made.
The Irish-born UFC star was accused of forcing an unnamed woman to perform oral sex and attempted to sodomize her after allegedly getting Miami Heat and NBA security to shuttle her into a bathroom during an NBA Finals game in Miami. After successful elbow strikes, the woman claims she made a successful escape after being held against her will.
However, videos released by TMZ appear to tell a very different story.
Patrick Mahomes sent NFL fans into a frenzy Thursday night after delivering an epic response to Ja’Marr Chase during the Chiefs’ private ring ceremony to commemorate their Super Bowl LIV victory over the Eagles.
Earlier this week, Chase decided to shake the table after the Bengals receiver picked his quarterback and friend Joe Burrow as the NFL’s best QB. The star wideout then followed his pick by saying “Pat Who?” when asked why he didn’t agree with Burrow naming the reigning NFL and Super Bowl MVP as the league’s top dog.
It’s safe to say that Phil Mickelson has lost some fans over the past year or so after bolting for LIV Golf and his questionable comments about the whole situation. While that may be the case, Lefty is still beloved by many and has plenty of support each time he tees it up.
Someone who is very firmly not a member of Team Mickelson stood out on Thursday at the U.S. Open, however.
The 2023 Men’s College World Series is set to get underway
The field is down to eight, and the 2023 Men’s College World Series is set to get underway on Friday from Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Nebraska.

They’ll meet up with the three teams ranked outside the top 16 who advanced, TCU, Oral Roberts, and Tennessee.
Andy Reid earned some serious brownie points with his wife when explaining why he doesn’t wear a Super Bowl ring.
The Chiefs celebrated a ring ceremony for the team Thursday after winning a second ring under Reid’s leadership, but he didn’t wear either of his two rings.
Why not? His answer was simple. His wedding ring for his wife Tammy is his the only ring that he’s interested in having on his fingers.
Andy Reid didn’t wear his Super Bowl rings tonight .. but gave the perfect answer as to why. #Chiefs pic.twitter.com/JDXw4EammW
