TALES OF THE BOSS, Part 22: On NPR’s “Skin in the Game,” @timoshei and @jcimp asked if it ever seemed like writing about George Steinbrenner felt like urban mythology. It did. And I used an analogy Buffalo sports fans might appreciate.

Today marks the first official flag football games for the Monsignor Martin League! Mount St Mary Academy ladies started this journey in Sept 2022…today their dream of having flag football as a sport came true! @msmacademy @All4Flag @TroyVincentSr @timoshei @nevilleconsult

There are very few humans like Coach McDermott. He gave me my first shot in the NFL, amongst many others. One of the best leaders that I have ever had the privilege to be around. Forever grateful 🙏🏈

.@JoshAllenQB is one of the greatest QBs of his generation. Yesterday, amid some huge and timely plays, he made a couple of mistakes that cost his @BuffaloBills. And he took responsibility for it.
In any pursuit, it's an inspiring example when leaders own up to their failures.

The @NCAA’s decision to add flag football to is Emerging Sports for Women Program is a huge step forward, especially for the young women who have proven that they have the drive, passion, and talent to compete at the highest level in this sport.

I've gathered my thoughts on the impending closure of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. There are a lot.
The PG is an institution. It has chronicled so much in the city and region's history, from triumphs to grave tragedies, to political scandals and even off-the-wall stories (1/)
Stunned and saddened. I don't even know what to say about the PG closing, as a subscriber, as a reader and as a former BCI employee.

I wrote about working nights, weekends and holidays — and how even a “dream” job still has its tradeoffs.
Explaining (to aspiring sports journalists) is not the same as complaining: open.substack.com/pub/nicole…

I had a great convo a couple of weeks ago with John Cimperman @jcimp and Tim O'Shei @timoshei for their Skin in the Game podcast, about the challenges @CFL faces in Toronto and the interface between MLSE and @BuffaloBills.

Longtime friends Don Beebe and Steve Tasker paid a visit to their old Buffalo Bills locker room at Highmark Stadium and the memories came flooding back. buffalonews.com/news/local/a…

#hallmarkchannel stars @awalk35 Andrew Walker, Holland Roden & Matthew Daddario are at @HighmarkStadm helping to kick off the season & celebrate the Buffalo-made film #holidaytouchdown. @BuffaloBills @BfloFilmOffice
The first in my @TheBuffaloNews series on the final season at @HighmarkStadm.
I talked to Bills LB-turned-stadium designer Scott Radecic of @Populous. As we climbed the roof of the new stadium, I figured he'd get a bit sentimental about the old one.
Nope.

I spoke to dozens of people in Buffalo’s growing fashion scene to understand what it is, why it’s taking off and what its future could look like, because “there’s mad fashion shows here” now. Read the first of two back-to-back stories: buffalonews.com/life-enterta…
