Anyone know more details on Okarafor/Tomlin Beef?

I’m not sure we have a viable option. Sure Jones is the future but Moore is not, then we get stuck with only Moore in the back half of last season. Shades should have addressd Chucks internally like Pickens, instead it was a permanent benching and a cut. Now we just have Moore and free agent tackles are a premium price. Now we are almost forced to draft tackle in round 1 or blow our cap on a FA

DK eluded there was more to the story of Chuks issues and that was why I posed the question of the full story, but I guess that’s the extent of it


The brilliance of HC MT
Tackle/Center ... Back to addressing the OL for the 3rd year in a row.
 
He’s still getting credited with assists 10 years after he retired.


I seen that too !!!

Just the other day An older woman tripped and fell, I stopped to help her up and she got on her way…….

That night on ESPN, I saw that RayRay got an assist For it………

Chuks needed to go for awhile (never should have got the contract he did). The fact that it took this long and a really stupid reason for him to be gone speaks terribly of the current coaching/organizational folks making these decisions.

I agree about the coaching and some of the organizational folks. But, Khan wasn't the GM who was part of the decision to give Chuks the extension. He WAS the cap guy/Asst. GM who was, most likely, tasked with putting together a package within the parameters that Colbert gave him.
 
Oakorafor ate all the beef and Tomlin got mad.

Tomlin doesn't like to be criticized. Dissenting voices are removed. Dictator. Some would say punk.
Clear back to when J Peezy brought a winning attitude and culture to the locker room, a presence of days gone by
He was a clear threat to Tomlin's allowable, if not encouraged, mediocrity culture and thus had to go
Think the last semblance of Steelers culture walked out the door with him
Tomlin doesn't want players or coaches that threaten his culture of the top dog that wastes season after season chasing his own tail

he needs to get on the porch (TV) with the other puppies (media) that don't belong in the tall grass...there's an even bigger payday and shorter working day over there waiting for ya lil Mikey
 
I have not thought about Chucs since the day he was cut
 
I told ol girl I was surprised nobody picked up any of our four cuts yet. She looks at me and says, "nobody will pick them up they stink".

She said you can go elsewhere and be good but come here ? you will stink.

She is killing me tonight.

I told in her in the off-season we flip script I am Mr. positive she isn't, regular season she is always Steelers will win, and lately I have been a semi - pestimistic.

I would ask her what she thinks about certain players but it might result in ten plus pages.

After she makes you sammiches, right boss?
 
I like those. Sub the l for more b.


If you make ramen noodles (just the noodles) normally.

1) put about 1/2 into bottom of bowl, put another bowl inside bowl to sort of shape a very shallow concave “bun”
2) Put other 1/2 into that bowl and add another bowl to shape a shallow concave bun
3)Put into frig to chill a little
4) take ramen(s) out and procceed to use as bread buns while making BLT
5) Fill the entire pocket area with BACON / Tomato / some lettuce, proportionately to what you like
6) eat

EDIT: I may have had to put them in frig over-night.

I use to make hamburgers with these Ramen Bun(s), were actually pretty good.

SIDE NOTE: You can use flavoring packet to get some additional taste, but they need to be dry to form the bun.


Helpful, but different chef ideas

Okorafor was never even better than average. Then he was overpaid for his mediocrity. I don't give a shlt what the reasoning was at the end, I'm just glad he's gone.

I'll be saying the exact same same things about Tomlin whenever the f*ck he goes away, except I'll be a hundred times happier about it.
 
Probably has to do with their working conditions. Okarafor probably feels slighted
