MITCH MARNER -VS- TORONTO MEDIA/TORONTO FANS/HIMSELF/EVERYONE (a playlist for when you love a thing so much, and it bites you)

track list and selected lyrics for each under the cut ❤️

1. I Want You So Bad I Can't Breathe - OK GO i want you, yeah, i want you/ i want you, yeah, i want you bad/ so bad i can't think straight/ so bad all my bones shake / so bad i can't breathe 2. Careful What You Wish For (the doctor said to) - Jack Harris something is missing/this predisposition/i feel like i'm living inside of my head 3. Who Made You A Monster? - Hael tricking the world to trust you/but everything that you say/is some kind of sordid lie/who taught you how to lie so well? 4. GOSSIP - Maneskin, Tom Morello welcome to the city of lies/where everything's got a price/gonna be your favourite place -- so sip the gossip, drink till you choke/sip the gossip, burn down your throat 5. Don't Be Nice - Watsky false modesty is a guilty habit/some people simply have it/but the fact is i would not have spent a decade doing this/if i did not believe i was at least a tiny bit ridiculously filthy at it 6. JEKYLL & HIDE - Bishop Briggs sweet and then you're sour/changes by the hour/never know which one i'll taste 7. End of It - Friday Pilots Club it's cruel you know/the way they've been treating you lately/get you real messed up on the daily 8. Nowhere Kid - Des Rocs inside of a maze you hide away/where nobody cares who you are/caught in a lie you can't escape 9. All For Us - Labrinth, Zendaya guess you figured my two times two/always equates to one/dreamers are selfish -- i'm taking it all for us, all/doing it all for love 10. Cruel Devotion - Night Club do you want me? tell me true/on my knees and now i'm begging you/loving you is such a cruel devotion 11. Who Are You, Really? - Mikky Ekko i have nothing left to prove/cause i have nothing left to lose/see me bare my teeth for you/who, who are you? 12. Heartbreak Feels So Good - Fall Out Boy is there a word for a bad miracle?/nobody said the road was endless/nobody said the climb was friendless 13. Some People - Dan Mangan cause it's too easy to be righteous when you eat what you've been fed/some people don't question what they've read/some people should 14. SELF-SABOTAGE - Waterparks i'll self sabotage/if you like when we talk i'll dislocate my jaw/what the fuck is wrong with me 15.

Middle Finger - Bohnes you show me love and then spit in my face/making your money off all of my pain 19. still feel. - half-alive when i'm furthest from myself/feeling closer to the stars/i've been invaded by the dark/trying to recognize myself when i feel i've been replaced 20. Rather Die - Barns Courtney i came to kill 'em, now i'm/wipin' the spit from my eyes/i take a beating but i/i'll never give up 21.

I'm Gonna Win - Rob Cantor you've seen me before, you'll see me again 26. Hero - Martin Harrix, JVKE

— ❥ Ever since gaining popularity with NHL fans, Raven has made a habit of making a load of homemade bracelets before every game she reports at and handing them out to female fans beforehand.

— ❥ She has also become an outspoken advocate for more inclusivity within the league, as well as queer and disability rights and greater education and support for those with disabilities and mental illnesses. She hasn’t always stayed out of trouble with the NHL bigwigs for some of the statements she’s made, but she’s never backed down and she doesn’t plan on stopping - besides, she has a great group at SportsNet always ready to support her, as well as a pretty good-sized group of tall hockey men who are used to throwing punches willing to fight back against anyone who tries to hurt her.

Dark Side - Bishop Briggs

—

The house is silent when Antonio comes home. Mitch is still away for work but Antonio expects him back for tonight. Which is why he went out to stock up on groceries. He plans to prepare dinner for the both of them, not keen on going out and having to share his boyfriend again after being separated.

Antonio puts the grocery bags on the kitchen counter and starts to stuff the fridge. He is about to put a handful of yoghurt cups into the fridge when he hears a dull thud upstairs. Frowning, Antonio keeps still, straining his ears but there’s nothing. Maybe he’s starting to imagine things.

Just when he closes the fridge though there’s another sound.

“Mitch?” Antonio calls. Maybe his boyfriend got home early and is trying to surprise him. Antonio decides to check, just to be sure.

He goes upstairs, looking into every room he suspects Mitch could be hiding in. But nothing. Antonio is about to go back down when he hears a muffled voice coming from further down the hallway. Slowly, he moves closer to the source of the sounds, coming to stand in front a door he knows is always locked. When he moved into the villa with Mitch, Mitch had told him to use every room as he likes. Except for this one. Antonio had tried the once while being alone but found it locked. He hasn’t tried again.

Until now. Antonio puts his hand on the door handle, pushing it down. Unlike the last time, the door gives way, opening up to the only room Antonio has never seen from inside. What he finds is not something he ever expected to see.

Mitch. A gun with a silencer attached to it in his hand. Standing above a stranger who is chained to a chair. The chair has fallen over and with him the man. He’s breathing hard, his face all beat up and bloody. Mitch is pointing the gun at the man’s face. He hasn’t noticed Antonio yet.

Antonio wants to say something, wants to confront him about whatever this is. He doesn’t get a chance to. Without missing a beat Mitch pulls the trigger. There is no loud bang, only the last twitch of a body before it goes limp, lifeless. Mitch turns his head then, looking straight at Antonio. There is blood on his face too, staining his skin.

“Oh, hi babe. Didn’t expect you to be home already,” he says with a smile.

“What- What have you done?” Antonio asks, voice barely above a whisper. He keeps looking from Mitch to the man, eyes locking on the gun.

“Just finishing up a job. Can you do me a favour and wait downstairs?”

This must be a bad dream. Maybe Antonio hit his head and now he’s trapped in the worst nightmare possible? Because there is no way Mitch, his wonderful loving boyfriend, killed a man in front of his eyes without thinking twice.

“Y-You shot him. You just shot him. That’s- I don’t- Why…?” Antonio stammers out. Breathing is hard all of a sudden. He is gasping for air but it won’t come, not as much as he needs, and his body tenses up in panic.

Mitch is with him in the blink of an eye. He places the gun on a shelf nearby, taking Antonio’s face in his hands.

“Tonio, I need you to breathe with me now, okay? Nice and steady. In and out. In…. And out.” Antonio tries is best to follow the gentle voice of his boyfriend, imitates his breathing rhythm until his chest doesn’t feel so tight anymore.

“Yes, that’s my good boy. Good job,” Mitch praises, his thumbs rubbing over Antonio’s cheek. He can feel something wet on his skin and maybe he started to cry without realising it but there isn’t the telltale sign of his eyes burning or his nose running. Apart from the slight panic attack he feels fine. That is when he realises it’s not the wetness of tears. It’s blood.

Antonio eyes fly past Mitch again to the lifeless body on the floor.

“You killed that man,” he whispers, the whole expanse of the situation slowly sinking in. Not only did Mitch kill another person, Antonio also saw him do it. He is a witness. A danger to Mitch. Oh god, Mitch is going to kill him too.

“I’m sorry you had to see this. But try not to think about it, love.” Mitch leans in, pressing a gentle kiss to Antonio’s mouth. When Antonio runs his tongue over his lips, he tastes copper. Right, there is still blood on Mitch’s face. Some of it must have caught on his lips, and now Antonio has it on his own.

“How about you take a shower and I clean this mess up, hm? Does this sound alright with you?”

Antonio nods as if in trance. He doesn’t look back when Mitch guides him to their bedroom with the en suite. Before Mitch lets him go again though, he stops Antonio again, holding his hand out.

“I would prefer if you give me your phone though. Wouldn’t want you to do something you regret later, do we?”

Antonio shakes his head in answer, taking his phone from the back pocket of his jeans and hands it over to Mitch. The smile he receives for it is the same Mitch always gives him when he does something that pleases his boyfriend, and Antonio smiles back instinctively.

“Take you time, love,” Mitch says before closing the door between them. Antonio stands there a moment longer, staring at the wood while Mitch is on the other side, cleaning up. Getting rid of the body and all the evidence. While Antonio is still here, breathing, alive. Mitch didn’t kill him too.

And while Antonio should be worried, should be freaking out because his boyfriend is a killer, all he can do is smile. Because Mitch didn’t kill him. Mitch trusts him enough that he left him alone, that he wants to keep him by his side. Mitch trusts him not to run to the next police station and spill everything that he just witnessed.

It makes a rush of adrenaline paired with affection rush through his body. Antonio vows to himself in that moment to never betray Mitch’s trust. His boyfriend might have a dark side to him Antonio wasn’t aware of before but this doesn’t change him being the love of his life. Even when maybe one day there is nothing left but pain.

Split System — Vol. 2 (Drunken Sailor/Goner)

Split System pounds its songs so hard, jacking ragged sing-along choruses up on pummeling beats, stringing barbed wire tangles of guitar slashing over antic, mobile bass. There’s nothing fancy going on here, just block simple punk songs walloped to extremity, but the ferocious drive is the thing. This band, from Melbourne, channels a rambunctious garage punk vibe that is 100% pure.

The band came together in Melbourne during the COVID lockdown—indeed, their first album (Vol. 1) was recorded remotely with all five members emailing in their parts. Now after a steady stream of local gigs and one, much-discussed rampaged across Europe, the band has honed an unstoppably live aesthetic. One guitar cowers under the assault of Arron Mawson, the force behind Stiff Richards, Doe Street and others and the head of Legless Records. Ryan Webb of Speed Week mans another. The singer is the rail thin, heavily tattoo’d Jackson Reid Briggs, best known for his band Jackson Reid Briggs and the Heaters.  Deon Slaviero puts a bouncing, driving low-end under Split System’s frenzies, while drummer Mitch McGregor batters at blur speed on the kit.

You can hear Split System’s Aussie roots in these blistering cuts—the butt-headed primitivism of the Chats, the force and simplicity of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, hints of Royal Headache’s overdriven hookiness. You might even catch a whiff of the Saints in “Dave” in the clashing rush of guitars and hoarse, wounded sweetness of the vocals. There is, as the Bible tells us, nothing new under the sun, but conviction and commitment will go a long way towards making things fresh. Split System’s songs rock hard enough that you forget what they remind you of.

Vol. 2 starts in a fury (“The Wheel”) and manages to pick up steam as it goes. The second half of the disc is better than the first. “End of the Night,” just after the midpoint, sticks a defiant fist in the air, its chorus ravaged and god-damned catchy. “The Drain” juddering into view on a stripped wire bass line, flares into doomed lyricism with its splayed power chords. “Just want to wash it all the way,” yowls Briggs, as the song swirls like forest flames or melted ice caps around him. And holy cow, what a way to end things with “Kill Me” a rain of guitar strums beating down, a charged rush of rock desolation crashing around. “Everything’s trying to kill me,” Briggs sings. Here’s a band yelling into the maelstrom. Here’s a rock group not backing down. Here’s a bunch of guys sticking middle fingers into the air and they’re not dead yet — and neither is rock and roll.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Robert Alda, Erykah Badu, The Beatles’s 1970 HEY JUDE (AGAIN) LP, Lazar Berman, Buffalo Bill, Michael Bolton, Bunny Briggs, Jonathan Cain, CL, Dane Clark, Jaz Coleman (Killing Joke), Paul Cotton (Poco), Ida Cox, Mark Dacascos, Fats Domino, Bill Duke, Cyrus Faryar, William Frawley, Jackie Gleason, Hagood Hardy, Bob “Bear” Hite, Victor Hugo, Betty Hutton, John Harvey Kellogg, Husband E. Kimmel, Marta Kristen, Christopher Marlowe, Max Martin, Seth Morrison, Michael Pate, Pepe, Corrinne Bailey Rae, Tony Randall, Nate Ruess, Mitch Ryder, Doug Sandom, Schubert’s 1869 Symphony No. 4, Levi Strauss, Dub Taylor, Yōsuke Yamashita, and the legendary singer-songwriter, musical pioneer, actor, and Bible scholar Johnny Cash.

No matter where I went as a kid, the “boom-chicka-boom” of Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three were playing in the background, with emphasis on the Sun sessions and the prison albums. Cash was one of the unifying sound-streams amongst family and friends who’d, otherwise, never agree on what to listen to. With his own brand of rebellious humility, he sang about the temporal and the eternal, intertwining the world view of a hardscrabble working man with that of a mystic. Throughout my life, in consistent and sometimes surprising patterns, Cash spoke to me about spiritual matters, even if I didn’t get it on the first pass. Musically he proved that stark and simple could be amazingly effective. HB JC and thank you for being a role model. Please enjoy my cover of “Ring of Fire”…

Mitch Green:

"There's an article from Vox from 2015 about the Myers Briggs assessment, in which Adam Grant is discussing how it is based pretty much on no science at all.

Even if it were a pretty good predictor of people's behavior — so even if on Tuesday I take the MBTI, and that gives me a prediction about how I'm going to behave on Thursday — that would not be a bad thing.

But it still wouldn't explain why I have the personality characteristics that I do.

And it tends to be that understanding why is the hard work that's required for making forward progress on ourselves, if that's what we want to do."

Life Elsewhere Music Vol 350

Split System – Dave These lads from Melbourne tackle their obvious  passion for retro punk sincerely. All too often a band will have a go and then end up sounding daft, lukewarm, insipid. I would line up Jackson Reid Briggs, Arron Mawson, Ryan Webb, Deon Slaviero and Mitch McGregor alongside early Dammed if we were able to go back in time. Split System’s new LP, Vol.2. is a fully fledged romp…

He attends all the PWHL games he can get to, often bringing Matty and Joey with him, and consistently posts in support of women in professional sports and praises women’s hockey teams in interviews when he can. (Quinn is a very proud captain for him because of this.)

— ❥ Despite mainly being a student athlete, he really liked his classes in college, especially the Creative Writing course he took - Matty always jokes that he’ll have to become an author after retiring from hockey.

El carabobeño llegó a nueve vuelacercas en la presente zafra. Arráez dejó en el terreno a Colorado. Es primera vez que el criollo da un batazo para dejar a rival en el terreno. Concluyó la jornada de 4-3 con doble, anotada y dos producidas, que elevan su promedio de .379. En ese partido, aunque se fue sin decisión, Jesús Luzardo guillotinó a 13 rocosos y es la segunda vez en la temporada que el venezolano receta a más de 10 contrarios. Ronald Acuña y su otro juego multihits. Wilmer Flores de 4-2 con su doble número 14 de la temporada. Salvador Pérez, Freddy Fermín y Andrés Giménez también la botaron   El segunda base de los Angelinos de Los Ángeles, Luis Rengifo, despachó este domingo dos cuadrangulares, para llegar a nueve en la presente temporada durante el encuentro entre su equipo y los Piratas de Pittsburgh en el Angel Stadium de Anaheim. JUEGO DE DOS JONRONES DE LUIS RENGIFO.   PIC.TWITTER.COM/F1GCGEO2VI — MLB Venezuela (@MLBVenezuela) July 23, 2023 El primer batazo del carabobeño ante los envíos de Mitch Keller en el quinto episodio, abandonó el plato a 99.8mph y voló a una distancia de 386 pies hacia el jardín central, para darle en ese momento ventaja de 4-1 a los dirigidos por Phil Nevin. Mientras tanto, el segundo bambinazo del criollo se marchó del home a 99.1mph y viajó a 386ft también hacia el bosque central y nuevamente ante la serpentina de Mitch Keller. De esta forma, Luis Rengifo llega también a cuatro estacazos en julio, lo que ya representa su mayor cantidad en un mes de la zafra en curso, superando los dos que conectó en junio. No obstante, hay que destacar que estas fueron sus remolcadas 28 y 29, en lo que ha sido una temporada difícil para el oriundo de Naguanagua; dónde ha estado por debajo de sus porcentajes, pues después de estos batazos, apenas tiene promedio de .220 con OPS de .674. Luis Arráez implacable dejó en el terreno a Colorado [caption id="attachment_81600" align="aligncenter" width="696"] Luis Arráez. (Foto: Megan Briggs/Getty Images)[/caption] El actual líder bate del beisbol, Luis Arráez, tuvo la última palabra este domingo, y dió el batazo del triunfo de los Marlins 3-2 sobre los Rockies de Colorado en el Rockies de Colorado en el loanDepot Park de Miami. Cabe destacar que este fue el primer triunfo en la segunda mitad para los dirigidos por Skip Schumaker. NOW PLAYING: LUIS ARRAEZ'S GREATEST HIT. #MAKEITMIAMI PIC.TWITTER.COM/VDM8FNQJW0 — Miami Marlins (@Marlins) July 23, 2023 Ahora bien, la defensiva de los rocosos le jugó al criollo con hasta cinco fildeadores en el cuadro interior en la parte baja del 10mo episodio, pero eso no fue impedimento para que Arráez soltara una línea que pasó por encima de territorio de primera base y se colara hasta el jardín derecho, permitiendo la entrada en carrera de Joey Wendle. Es la primera vez en su carrera que Luis Arráez da hit para dejar al rival en el terreno y la sexta en el ano para los Marlins, que ahora tienen récord de 54-47. No obstante, el venezolano concluyó la jornada de 4-3 con doble, anotada y dos producidas, que elevan su promedio de .379 y OPS a .901. La victoria fue para Huáscar Brazoban (4-2) y la derrota para Pierce Johnson (1-5). Jesús Luzardo le mandó 13 ponches a Rocosos [caption id="attachment_81601" align="aligncenter" width="696"] Jesús Luzardo (Foto: AP)[/caption] El abridor zurdo venezolano de los Marlins de Miami, Jesús Luzardo, tuvo su mejor apertura de la campaña este domingo; al ponchar a 13 oponentes de los Rockies de Colorado en el loanDepot Park. Pese al esfuerzo, se fue sin decisión en el último de la serie entre ‘peces’ y rocosos. ¡13 PONCHES! JESÚS LUZARDO CON UNA NUEVA MARCA PERSONAL EN LAS MAYORES.  PIC.TWITTER.COM/RUCWH2UKNK — MLB Venezuela (@MLBVenezuela) July 23, 2023 Luzardo; de 25 años, trabajó por espacio de siete entradas en las que apenas permitió cuatro hits, una carrera y otorgó dos bol

etos. En total realizó 115 pitcheos (75 en zona de strike). Cabe destacar que sus 13 guillotinados representan su mayor cantidad de la temporada y la segunda vez que registra doble dígito en contrarios eliminados. Además, retiró a nueve de los últimos 12 bateadores que enfrentó. Destacando también que en ese lapso, permitió su única rayita del juego; obra de cuadrangular de Brenton Doyle en el quinto capítulo. De este modo, Jesús Luzardo deja su efectividad en 3.22, con 144 recetados y WHIP de 1.15 en 120.1 entradas de labor y 21 aperturas. Ronald Acuña Jr. y su juego multihits 41 [caption id="attachment_81603" align="aligncenter" width="675"] Ronald Acuña Jr. | Foto cortesía[/caption] Los Bravos de Atlanta ganaron la primera serie de esta segunda mitad de temporada, esto luego de imponerse 4-2 a los Cerveceros de Milwaukee en el American Family Field. Para esta ocasión, y tal como ya es costumbre, Ronald Acuña Jr. volvió a resaltar con el madero. Y es que el criollo sumó su partido multihits número 41 de la temporada y el segundo de manera consecutiva. El de La Sabana finalizó de 4-2 con su carrera anotada 87 y su base robada 46, cifras para seguir liderando dichos departamentos en la Liga Nacional. Cabe mencionar que también lo atraparon robando por primera vez en el mes. Tras este compromiso, el jardinero de Atlanta dejó su línea ofensiva en .332/.409/.577/.986 producto de 131 indiscutibles en 395 presentaciones esta temporada. Además, también acumula 26 dobles, un triple, 23 jonrones y 58 carreras empujadas. Regresó el poder a Salvador Pérez conecta el jonrón 16 [caption id="attachment_81605" align="aligncenter" width="675"] Salvy se reencuentra con los cuadrangulares / AP[/caption] Tras pasar más de 20 días sin conectar cuadrangular, Salvador Pérez acabó con esta sequía al batear un soberbio jonrón en la visita de los Reales de Kansas City a los Yankees de Nueva York en la jornada dominical. El careta carabobeño disparó su vuelacerca número 16 de la campaña sin nadie en base y por todo el jardín derecho ante los envíos del abridor dominicano, Luis Severino, para acercar a su equipo en ese momento que perdía 5-1 abriendo la cuarta entrada. Salvy has us on the board!#WelcomeToTheCity pic.twitter.com/BU97HPgCAq — Kansas City Royals (@Royals) July 23, 2023 Salvador no conectaba cuadrangular desde el primero de Julio en el partido ante los Dodgers de Los Ángeles. Hasta la fecha el catcher venezolano batea para .246, con 16 jonrones y 41 carreras impulsadas. Freddy Fermín conecta su quinto cuadrangular  [caption id="attachment_81604" align="aligncenter" width="675"] Freddy Fermín / Foto: AP[/caption] El receptor venezolano, Freddy Fermín, sigue demostrando de qué está hecho en el beisbol de las Grandes Ligas. Este domingo tuvo otra jornada para resaltar con los Reales de Kansas City. Los Royals fueron barridos ante los Yankees de Nueva York y el tercer duelo culminó con pizarra final de 8-4 en casa de los Bombarderos. Pero Fermín no iba a irse de "la ciudad que nunca duerme" sin conectar su quinto cuadrangular de la temporada 2023. Ron Marinaccio, relevista de los Yankees, ingresó al compromiso para intentar preservar la ventaja y guiar a su equipo al triunfo. Pero Freddy lo recibió con un bambinazo de vuelta completa. Un cambio a 80 MPH se quedó en la esquina inferior de adentro y Fermín pudo estirar sus brazos de abajo hacia arriba para mandar a volar esa pelota. El batazo alcanzó una distancia de 344 pies y salió del madero a una velocidad de 98 MPH. Fermín llegó a 34 inatrapables y 21 carreras remolcadas en su segundo año en MLB. Wilmer Flores responde a la expectativa de San Francisco [caption id="attachment_81602" align="aligncenter" width="675"] Wilmer Flores | Foto cortesía[/caption] Los Gigantes de San Francisco cayeron 6-1 este domingo ante los Nacionales de Washington, alargando su racha de juegos perdidos a cinco y así alejarse a cuatro de diferencia de la cima de la División Oeste de la Liga Nacio

nal. Sin embargo, durante esta seguidilla negativa está sobresaliendo el nombre del criollo Wilmer Flores, que por séptima vez en el mes de julio logró un encuentro de al menos dos imparables. El carabobeño se fue de 4-2 con su doble número 14 de la temporada, dejando así su línea ofensiva en .296/354/.531/.885 en 71 presentaciones con los Gigantes. A eso se le suman 12 cuadrangulares, 29 carreras anotadas, 31 impulsadas y 63 indiscutibles en 213 turnos al bate. Asimismo, cabe resaltar que en los últimos siete juegos ha estado encendido con el madero, ya que su promedio es de .476 producto de 10 imparables, sin mencionar que también suma cuatro vuelacercas y siete remolcadas. Andrés Giménez la desaparece ante los Filis [caption id="attachment_81606" align="aligncenter" width="675"] El camarero de Cleveland sigue despertando su ofensiva / AP[/caption] Tras tener un comienzo de temporada regular a nivel ofensivo, Andrés Giménez poco a poco ha ido retomando su ritmo con el bate y este domingo sacudió su noveno jonrón en el partido de los Guardianes antes los Filis de Filadelfia. El segunda base del conjunto de Cleveland dio el cuadrangular solitario por todo el jardín derecho ante los envíos del abridor norteamericano, Aaron Nola, para darle la ventaja a su equipo 2-1 en el marcador. El poder de Andrés Giménez dice presente. 💪 pic.twitter.com/k920w91cHa — MLB Venezuela (@MLBVenezuela) July 23, 2023 Giménez hasta la fecha exhibe un promedio de 245., 9 jonrones, 38 carreras impulsadas y 15 bases robadas.     Para recibir en tu celular esta y otras informaciones, únete a nuestras redes sociales, síguenos en Instagram, Twitter y Facebook como @DiarioElPepazo El Pepazo/Meridiano/Líder

Despite a 2-6 start to the season, the Steelers have won three of their last four games and remain in the AFC Wild Card hunt. For a team that entered the season with Mitch Trubisky as their starting quarterback, it is a surprise to see them still alive. But, the play of rookie Kenny Pickett has helped keep Pittsburgh afloat. Also, the Steelers’ defense since the return of T.J. Watt has been very good. Watt returned from injury in Week 10, and Pittsburgh has allowed 20 points per game since then. While it may seem unlikely, the Steelers still have a 7% chance to get into the postseason. There is still a chance! #Steelers #NFL pic.twitter.com/6QwfdPs52Z — Blitzburgh (@Blitz_Burgh) December 8, 2022 One reason they can get into the playoffs is due to their rest-of-season schedule. In the next two weeks, the Steelers face the Lamar Jackson-less Ravens and the Carolina Panthers. Those are two games Pittsburgh should win. If they can get back to .500 with a 7-7 record, their playoff odds will almost certainly increase.   Pickett’s Continued Development The most important thing for the Steelers should be the continued development of their franchise quarterback. Pickett has big shoes to fill as the next man up after Ben Roethlisberger. But you can already see the rookie is making positive strides. Kenny Pickett this season Before Bye Since Bye1-3 W-L 3-12 Pass TD 29 Turnovers 066.8 Pass Rating 85.9 pic.twitter.com/aUoNYsDouD — NFL on CBS 🏈 (@NFLonCBS) December 7, 2022 The rookie is taking care of the ball, and doing plenty of good things with his arm. He is still completing 65.2% of his passes on the season, which is rare for most rookies. The Steelers offense is playing to his strengths and allowing Pickett to complete easy passes. Which is why his yards per attempt rank 33rd in the NFL at 6.1. There has been plenty of good from Pickett this season, and his development will remain very important in Pittsburgh. #Steelers #Chance #Playoffs #Season

No matter where I went as a kid, the “boom-chicka-boom” of Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three were playing in the background, with emphasis on the Sun sessions and the prison albums. Cash was one of the unifying sound-streams amongst family and friends who’d, otherwise, never agree on what to listen to. With his own brand of rebellious humility, he sang about the temporal and the eternal, intertwining the world view of a hardscrabble working man with that of a mystic. Throughout my life, in consistent and sometimes surprising patterns, Cash spoke to me about spiritual matters, even if I didn’t get it on the first pass. Musically he proved that stark and simple could be amazingly effective. HB JC and thank you for being a role model. Please enjoy my cover of “Ring of Fire”…
