There is a new Daily Shot of Steelers show every Monday - Friday morning! Also one each on Penguins and Pirates! Hope you can check those out, too! -
I’m a Steelers fan from Baltimore. When my dad and I went to a Steelers game in Pittsburgh, we met a family at the grocery store the day before the game who invited us to their tailgate the next day. Yinzers are some good people
You’re not wrong. I live in the northeastern part of Pennsylvania. You have people that came from Philadelphia, New York and New Jersey in this part of the state. And the times that I’ve gone to Pittsburgh, it seems like a very different culture of people.
Treat people the way you'd want to be treated, is how it was taught to me. #Yunzer from the norside. ✌️
Your love for the city is heartwarming, I hope you know how much the city loves you as well
I’m in my 50’s and live in Dallas now. Grew up in Squirrel Hill. I remember being a little kid, watching the adults scream at the TV for the first 2 70’s super bowls. I remember watching the last 2 in the 70’s. Moved to SoCal at 15. I finally made it back and saw my first Steeler’s game in Pgh in my life for Kenny’s game against the Saints. Brought one of my sons with me. What a magical trip. Took the stadium tour. Let my 16 year old have his first taste of beer at Mike’s Beer Bar. We went to the draft when it was in Dallas, wow, it’s worth the hype! We’re already planning our draft trip!
You sir sound like an awesome Dad, keep up the good work and wish you many blessings
We feel for ya, dallas?
Hey DK, hope you see this comment because it has a lot to do with what you were talking about. I’m originally from Beaver PA and my family was all about the Steelers and Pirates. I remember listening to Bob Prince and Nellie King on the radio out on the back porch with the whole family.
My mom and dad divorced when I was 13 and my mom moved my brother and I to Rhode Island to be live with her mom. It was a very difficult time for me. That was 1972, the same year as the Immaculate Reception. It was like the Steelers were there just for me and I talked with all the family I had left behind. The Steelers were more than just a football team, they were my connection back home and back to all the family I left behind.
Fast forward to a couple years ago. I had never been back and now I’m 60. I had never seen Heinz, as it was then, field so my kids rented an air B and B on right near the top of the incline and we went to Steelers game. It’s against Buffalo when Hodges was playing QB. They lost a tough one but just being able to be there and experience the city again was beyond words. It meant so much to me and was like reconnecting with a time that I truly missed. We walked all over the city and it was truly a beautiful place.
I still haven’t been to PNC park but I hope to soon. Hopefully the current ownership and management team will be gone and replaced by people who actually care about winning and the great history of the franchise.
I’m 65 now so I hope maybe to bring my wife with me and show her what a great place Pittsburgh is!!!
Thanks for all you do, listen to your shows every morning at work. Yea, still working and probably will be but that’s what we do in Western PA, we work hard and live our Pirates and Steelers hard!
Hope to meet you one day!
By the way, ran into Richie Hebner up here in Massachusetts! Had a great visit with him for about 15 minutes. Let me try on his World Series ring!!
You are a member of the Pittsburgh diaspora. Most members were children of mill workers after the mills closed who moved elsewhere for work. I think that is the reason for the expansive Steeler Nation. OTOH, I grew up in Cleveland, but became a Steeler fan because Dad grew up in Windber, PA, a central PA mining town, and was a life long Steeler fan. My connection to Pittsburgh is hereditary. Thank goodness, because being a Browns fan would have been heart breaking.
I moved to Pittsburgh after Hurricane Katrina. I had nothing and knew nothing. I moved there because of the Steelers. Months later they won the Superbowl!
Wilson isn't fast? Almost every report talks about his elite speed. He ran in the 4.3's I believe. Every highlight I've seen has him outrunning everyone on the field. Interesting that you would say that.
I don't know what he's talking about roman did run a 4.3 40
DK said he isn't super fast, not just regular fast like you said
@@kentsturgill5945A 4.3 is super fast
4.3 anything is super fast and it shows on film
He said not super fast. He has speed but it’s not Calvin Austin fast. 40 seed and on field speed is different
Roman "Hines Ward" Wilson.. Lets GOOOO. Remember my player comp DK, you heard it first. He will be our Hines Ward.
I love your city. Always been kinda obsessed from the old cut seens of landmarks,and attractions during games growing up, seemed nostalgic almost the first time i visited. Grew up in Ohio( I know puke) but anyway seen a Lynn Swann highlight reel as a 9-10 year old kid ,and thought he was superman. Then realized they had a whole team of supermen, loved that team since. Love all the Pittsburgh sports teams( well Im a Buckeye fan , but I dont hate the Panthers it'd be my second fav college team. Anyway all this ti say I get your civic pride DK , if i could convince my now grown children to bring my grandchildren with me and move there I wouldn't hesitate. Go Pittsburgh , and all the teams, and people calling it home. I'll be back as often as I can
I am a Steeler fan from Wheeling, WV, cousins who lived in MT. Lebanon. I grew up on Terry Bradshaw, Lynn Swann, Stallworth of course Franco and the Steel Curtain. I left for the Army in 1986 and have not lived back there since then. However, I have never waivered in the love of our Stillers. To your point DK, how Pittsburgh has changed. I have visited frequently and have noticed how it has changed for the better, even Wheeling has made some strides in re-inventing itself. I will always love our Stillers and Yinzer nation!
So you've made me homesick again. Thanks again.
I may not always agree with your takes DK, but I love your love for the city of Pittsburgh. That's what keeps me coming back for more. Keep it up DK. Respect to you.
Wilson and Wilson are my absolute favorite picks in this draft. Both these dudes are gonna be on the 53 and I believe both will play significant snaps this year. Let's go.
DK, I appreciate the shout out! Keep championing our great city! I know I always do! See you at the game on Tuesday, hopefully we get Skenes! PS - I know he's #10, but I think Roman is going to remind people a lot of that #86 guy who used to play for us... Love the channel as always!
DK: YOU are my link to Steelers football from Australia. Very cool stuff.
I’m thrilled for the city. My first time out was in October 2000 when they played the Bengals. I fell in love with the city that day, and have been out for games in all the venues. Civic, PNC, TRS, Heinz. So many awesome memories.
DK I can hear the pride in your voice anytime you talk about the city of Pittsburgh. It’s always awesome to hear you speak on the subject. I’ve met sooo many Yienzers just like you when I come to Pittsburgh. It never gets old.
Had me nervous DK😂😂😂 thought you had taken the day off daily
Hello DK! Love your show and especially the Ramon Foster Show. My wife loves you guys. That's the only show she is eager to watch. I love my STEELERS! I have since I was a 10 year old boy here in Phoenix, AZ. I am now 61 years old. My dad didn't have a favorite team, he just hated the team from Dallas so I did as well. When I noticed the brand of football that the STEELERS were playing.....I bought in.... hook, line and sinker! I believe we are calling it "bully ball" now. LOL My wife and our son and myself finally made it to Pittsburgh for the Sunday night football game against the Seahawks that went into O/T a few years back. Man.....that was quite the inauguration for us. We loved the city and especially the people. My wife says next time we go we are going to visit your shop. All 3 of us are heading to Denver in week 2 this season to see us beat up the Broncos. Can't wait for that! Love your show and the city of Pittsburgh.
DK, I'm born and raised in CT in 79 and moved to NC in 2013. I've been a Steeler fan since I was 11. I watched the Greg Lloyd scariest man in the nfl segment on some show and was hooked right then and there In CT you're a Patriots fan or NY team fan. My whole life I've dreamt of going to Pittsburgh and last season opener that dream came true just to have it end with the 9ERS crushing us. That was the trip we're I finally got to meet you. Meeting you and Moats was on my Pittsburgh bucket list and I was blessed to do both. I always thought I would fortify to Pittsburgh and here's to keeping a good thought that I'll be welcomed.
Your right DK I am born and raised in Pittsburgh and I graduated high school in Penn Hills. I moved to Houston Texas in 1980 and still have the love for my home town and love for my Steelers and Pens! Since my mom and dad passed away I have not been back to the Burg in a while. I live and die with the Steelers every year. We were so close to making it to the super bowl here in Houston and it was a big let down when that did not happen. In the 70s everything started turning around for our town. The signs everywhere were For Pete's sake Keep Pittsburgh clean and everyone bought into that. Pittsburgh is an amazing town and it started in the 70s with the Steelers and all the yinzers that cleaned up the town and made it the beautiful place that it is today. Rock On DK!
On the J1Q, I can attest to this whole heartedly. I made my first trip to Pittsburgh this past December, for the Bengals game and I fell in love with the city. I even went to DK's shop and met Dolly. I have been a Steeler fan all my life, and I can't wait to return to Pittsburgh.
Im glad the draft is coming to Pittsburgh in 26, ill be there ! coming from Maine to represent my team that ive cheered for since i can remember ( like 73 or 74)
Lived in the Burgh & went to PITT!!! The people are amazing!! Go through the tunnels. All it takes!!!!
Looking forward to whoever looks good next week!
Hi DK, love the show . Keep your eye on the Wilson’s. Roman, Payton, and Russ. I have strong vibes !!
The Steelers are Pittsburgh. You are so right.
Thy tape of the linemen practicing their footwork looked impressive.
Good morning dk thanks for the great content
I am a lifetime Steeler fan and have never been to Pittsburgh. I was raised in Dallas and was sick of Cowboy fans by age 6. I chose the Steelers against Dallas in the Super Bowl, they won, and I have been a fan ever since. I live in Budapest, Hungary, never miss a game, and stay up all night for the late games.
It was the first time I watched Monday Night Football (we had finally got an antenna tall enough to pick up an American TV station). We were still using a black and white TV and the signal was not good. Pittsburgh was not a good team yet and the announcers were making fun of them, basically saying that Joe Greene was the only good player on the team and using the joke about Bradshaw and spelling CAT. I was raised to root for the underdog, and like our local Blue Bombers, the Steelers were obviously the underdog if ever there was one so I started cheering for them. I haven't stopped.
Roman Wilson has got some move's after the catch DK. As practice becomes more aggressive and full gear, we may get a better idea of what is to come. Then there is preseason games. Thank you DK. Love Pittsburgh, and always bring the family there. The zoo, Kennywood, Science Center, and many other thing's. The Pittsburgh Steelers. Coming soon the draft, and all those wonderful people. Great show DK. Music to my ears.
He only broke 9 tackles in his time at Michigan.
Born and raised in Southern Cali and moved out here to Pittsburgh about 3 years ago. Don't apologize for being proud of your city. Its a beautiful city and the people are nice even though sometimes your terminology still throws me off 😄
I'm from Los Angeles and I always wondered how Pittsburgh is.......
@selaxlife7621 ya was born in Long Beach...its beautiful here. I also personally love that there is actual seasons out here instead of hot and fire season out there 😆
@@davidstarkey1644 I'm a block away from Long Beach now......Bellflower....lol Go Steelers!
Welcome to Western Pennsylvania... n'at.
I have high hopes for our new offense, and I can't wait to see reports from training camp. I also have equally high hopes for the defense, especially for those who are heading towards the twilight of their playing years. Also excited for special teams, and I can only imagine how much gum Danny Smith is chawing on as the season gets closer. In other words, I am hoping for a really good first season with so many changes!! Looking foward with excited expectations, and hoping they come true!! ❤🖤💛🖤💛❤️
DK, Roman Wilson runs 4.38 that’s fast pal
DK - are you describing Steve Largent??? Run route, catch and turn it up.
DK< I live in Carolina as a Steeler fan as well. There's A LOT of Steeler fans here. Mostly because Carolina sucks, but most like myself moved down here from the Burgh or injherited a Burgh family or what have you. Its wild. Have team, will travel
Lol too funny bro
I live in Cali and we have a Steelers nation bar over here. Cali is a state where everyone looks to move so you can find a fan hangout of every team here.
No other city in the world has an area quite like the strip district... I'm originally from Bridgeville a born and raised Yinzer living in North Myrtle Beach SC and I get home to visit friends and family in Pittsburgh once a year.... my girlfriend is from NC and had never been north of Virginia Beach before and she has a very deep southern draw and always says y'all so I started messing with her and said the proper terminology is not y'all it's Yinz and she'd always say what's a Yinz nobody says that... so I took her home with me we flew in and rented a car and before she even had her 1st breath in town I took her smack into the strip district and grabbed her and pointed around and was you see this you see it THATS A YINZ... anyway I couldn't tell weather she was horrified or amazed anyway her jaw dropped in total shock and disbelief and the only thing that could come out from her mouth for the next 15 minutes as she got her bearings was I never seen anything like this... I hope and pray that during the draft this special part of town is showcased somewhat often throughout the draft
I'm betting Wilson scores more touchdowns than Johnson, which really shouldn't be hard for this kid.
LOTS OF US STEELERS HERE RIGHT OUT SIDE OF MET LIFE ........LOLOL PRETTY MUCH A HOME GAME HERER WHEN JETS AND GIANTS PLAY :O) HERE WE GOOOOOO!
in any other draft roman is a 2 round pick. he can be our #2 easily. hopefully all the rumors of us trading for another wr can be put to bed.. its not needed and we have plenty of wr support on this team.
Been a steelers fan since the 70s. Go by Pittsburgh every year on my way to Michigan but have never been in the city
A Steelers Fan Since The 60's. They Were Pretty Sorry Then. John Henry Johnson RB, And Bill Nelson QB.
@genephillips4955 know the history but that was a little before my time lol
@ricklove8588 Hey bro went to South High School and graduated in 1971. Steelers started their walk to fame. To honest I think they would be a much better team if they got another head coach. Under Tomlin were just gonna be mediocre.
@genephillips4955 players love him and play hard but it's a results business and he has not produced in years and with some good teams. Have to agree
@ricklove8588 Gud. Chatin with ya. Looks like I found a kool friend. I'll remember ya when football season starts. My Manz.
Roman Wilson reminds me of a Hines ward
Those would be huge shoes to fill. But would be nice to see.
I have said the same thing. I believe that Roman Wilson will be great for the team in every way. I think we will see him blossom into one of the offensive leaders over the next few years.
With speed
Sub 4.4 is super fast. What is super fast to you 4.2 which is record speed
I think Roman has built up speed, like a second gear, similar to Jaylen Warren. He probably can’t show that off within OTAs with generic routes and warm ups.
The Rooney's earned it!!!
Roman prob reminds tomlin of a hines ward, AB, even Juju guy
We may have been in a better position if we kept Deontae for another year. Deontae would benifit as well with money and not going to a team that sucks. We would need to make him understanding that though.
every fan base of the other teams in the division are in unison saying that the steelers are doomed this year because of the QB situation, how true do u think this is?
Did you see the game 😂😂😂 saf but true 😂😂
You can take the Boy out of the Burgh ,but you can't take the Burgh out of the Boy.
All AB did his first two years was returning kicks which makes me think Kahn and Tomlin think they have the talents at WR. I'm guessing Austin and Heyward are going to have much bigger roles.
The most exciting thing about these OTAs is how much the older guys on the team seem to love the new coaches they brought in specifically Smith and Azzanni
First
Kid has the "it" factor. Won a nati, is undersized. Rw will be a dawg
Dionte is an elite route runner, but not an elite pass catcher or turn up the field and go guy. If Roman, from what you’re saying, is an above average route runner and he CATCHES the ball and RUNS UP FIELD; he is already an improvement over Dionte. Plus he BLOCKS!!! #positionimprovement
The difference is that Roman Wilson can be as good a route Runner as Deonte Johnson but Deonte Johnson drop the ball way too many times for my liking in Roman Wilson is known for not dropping the ball
Why would paton willson call him out by name he plays defense 😅
en elite route runner always befuddled me. that means the guy can run where he's told?
Wilson has no glaring specialty that sets him apart…he’s not that tall, not that fast, great at catch and run but a “junk yard dog” with a swag personality….hmm, sounds like my favorite all-time Steeler, Hines Ward #86!
Wouldn’t that be nice! #PSFL
Dionte caught the ball and ran backwards a lot ... He ran backwards more than any wr I've ever seen in my life.... Horrible after the catch. Disgusting
Reaching buddy.
🤣watch a game.... Went an entire year without a td as a starter.
He caught the ball ? …. When ? 😅
I grew up in the 70's in P-burg (Parkersburg), WV. It was only natural to be a Steelers fan. Pittsburgh is a beautiful city, and I feel right at home there.
Great episode have a great weekend
