Feb. 1, 1989, my first day at the Herald-Standard, staff included Tod Trent, Rod Schoener, Jim Kriek, Dave Smith, Craig Faris, great times! ... 35 years later I'm still here, but just me and Jim Downey now. Times have changed a lot here since then ...

All these Steelers free agent moves are fine. But they haven't addressed their biggest problem: LEFT TACKLE. Don't tell me Dan Moore is the answer. They didn't sign one. And they blew off BIG Peter Skoronski's Pro Day. I'm worried about Pickett's blind side.
