Glad this week is finally over! The media has done nothing but hound Bill Cowher about his resigning as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. For I don't know how long now, that is all that has been newsworthy in the good ol' Burgh?! Is going to retire?, is he going to take another coaching job?, Is he going to move permanently to his new million $ + home in North Carolina? Since the last game the Steelers played and won again Cincy, all that has been on the news, both radio and television, is this impending decision on the part of Bill Cowher. Now that he has the news conference today, I am hoping that the media blitz on this issue will diminish. I am just sick of hearing it! Let the poor man alone! It's his decision, his career and his life! Pa-leez! Between that and Gerald Ford's funeral, that's all they've been reporting! All the media did was blow smoke up our butts about how great Gerald Ford was. come on. He was on the Warren Commission for crying out loud. He's a liar just like all the others. Why can't they find other things to report about? Like welfare fraud? People that sell their foodstamps to get drug money? The number of people living in shelters, or are out of work? How about how the increase in the minimum wage is going to effect the economy? I am not saying that the passing of a President or The Steelers' Head Coach resigning is not newsworthy, but it definitely was overkill in my eyes.

I guess because we didn't hear about Cowher for weeks on end here, it was news to us. Of course, the fact that the Steelers head coach job is basically the most secure position in the NFL, it also makes it newsworthy... I mean, come on, how many other teams have had a whopping TWO head coaches since 1969?? Ah, well... The Steelers will once again suck for years on end until the 'new guy' can get a good team built back up again...
