Pennsylvania's judicial retention race is heating up, and there's a mailer going around with really misleading information. Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato released a draft of the next county budget, and there's no tax increase, but Pittsburgh Public Schools is thinking differently. We're also talking about Walmart's pitch to demolish the Monroeville Mall, but there's also some good news. Pennsylvania's getting glamping sites with incredible amenities, and lots of books are on sale to celebrate Banned Books Week.

Qui a le plus de chances de valider son ticket pour les playoffs MLB ?En deuxième partie, retour sur l'héritage unique de Roberto Clemente, figure légendaire du baseball dont l'impact dépasse largement les terrains.Un épisode essentiel pour tous les fans de MLB qui suivent de près la fin de saison et la lutte intense pour les wildcards.Hébergé par Ausha.

They were the defending champs… and they were just getting started. After a draft in 1974 that would eventually produce 5 Hall of Famers… names like Lambert, Swann, Stallworth, Shell and Webster… the Steelers were ready to repeat as champions… and while the 2nd year players began to come into their own in '75, the team was led by Quarterback Terry Bradshaw, who 5 years after being the #1 overall pick out of Louisiana Tech, was finally ready to claim the role as QB1 without having to look over his shoulder.  And on the defensive side of things… the Steel Curtain was ready to wreak havoc on the opposing quarterbacks throughout the NFL. LC Greenwood, Ernie Holmes, Dwight White and the man on the cover of the September 22, 1975 issue of Sports Illustrated, Mean Joe Greene were laying the foundation for a Steelers dynasty… 4 Super Bowl wins in 6 years!  The NFL's first two-time Defensive Player of the Year winner, Joe Greene was everything you wanted in a leader… tough, driven, disciplined, and in this case, yes, a little mean. His years in Pittsburgh would end with a gold jacket in Canton and a legacy that is second to none in the Steel City, or anywhere for that matter. Alex Kozora is someone who appreciates Mean Joe and the Steelers and has been covering the team for over a decade as one of the hosts on The Terrible Podcast, a Steelers podcast for Pittsburgh Steelers fans where he and Dave Bryan discuss the goings on of one of the most successful franchises in the NFL. But that wasn't always the case. Prior to Chuck Noll's and Mean Joe's arrival in 1969, the Steelers had been to one playoff game in their 37 years in the NFL. But in 1972, that all changed… David Orochena is a writer for www.steelersdepot.com and contributor to The Terrible Podcast and he tells us that the “Immaculate Reception” was much more than just the Steelers winning their first ever playoff game. It was a defining moment for the sports structure of Pittsburgh. A week after Franco Harris caught the ball out of midair off a deflection, Roberto Clemente was tragically killed in a plane crash helping bring aid to an earthquake-ravaged Nicaragua. The death of a man who symbolized Pittsburgh and the Pirates completely devastated the city and according to Orochena, it was the Steelers that helped fill that void going forward. It's much more than just the X's & O's of professional football. It's a chat with two guys who know the ins and outs of a franchise that were the laughing stock of the NFL for decades… and turned it around in the mid 70's to become the envy of every organization in the league. Alex and David tell us about how Terry Bradshaw finally won the QB job for good in '75, how the Terrible Towel came to be and inspired a couple of guys years later to start a Terrible Podcast… and how one play changed the course of the Steelers franchise and how the Steel Curtain came to symbolize a team on it's way glory. They dominated and kicked tail and didn't care who got in their way… Was it nice? No… it was mean… Mean Joe Greene and the 1975 Steelers on the Past Our Prime podcast…  Listen to both Past Our Prime and The Terrible Podcast wherever you get your podcasts and please leave a review and a 5-star rating if you desire.

They also debate Ben Cherington's failed roster build and why it's hard to care when the team can't score or beat division rivals.

From the NFL snubbing the National Anthem at a Steelers game, to Mario Lemieux wanting to play for a team other than the Penguins, to the Browns risking their QB's life to beat the Steelers, and fan outrage over Roberto Clemente's statue, these stories sparked fury but faded from memory.

(Aniversario de la Inducción de Tony Pérez al Salón de la Fama del Béisbol) Atanasio Pérez Rigal nació en el antiguo Central Violeta en la provincia de Camagüey, Cuba. En 1960, ya cumplidos los diecisiete años, dejó su trabajo en una fábrica de azúcar de La Habana para jugar por los Sugar Kings (Reyes del Azúcar) de la Liga Internacional de Béisbol. Como el dueño de aquel equipo, Bobby Maduro, tenía vínculos con los Rojos de Cincinnati, el cazatalentos de los Rojos, Tony Pacheco, logró que Pérez firmara un contrato de ligas menores con ellos que sólo incluía el costo de la visa y del vuelo a los Estados Unidos. Resultó ser un negocio más que sustancioso para los Rojos, ya que Tony Pérez llegaría a ser uno de los peloteros más diestros en hacer contacto con el punto dulce del bate, es decir, una de las estrellas que más carreras produciría para la «Gran Maquinaria Roja» de Cincinnati en la década de 1970. Por su parte, Pérez se sintió más que satisfecho cuando pegó el cuadrangular con que desempató el Juego de Estrellas de 1967 en la decimoquinta entrada. Ese batazo, que lo convirtió en el Jugador más Valioso de aquel Juego de Estrellas más largo hasta entonces, no sólo le dio la victoria a la Liga Nacional por 2-1 sobre la Liga Americana, sino también fue contra el lanzador Jim «Catfish» Hunter, futuro miembro del Salón de la Fama del Béisbol, y frente a los grandes jugadores puertorriqueños Roberto Clemente y Orlando «Peruchín» Cepeda, dos de los primeros seis hispanos que llegarían a ser así mismo miembros del Salón de la Fama. «No hay nada mejor que eso para un pelotero latino —comentó posteriormente Tony Pérez, quien estaba entonces jugando en su tercera temporada completa en las Grandes Ligas—. Ese jonrón... [con] Clemente y Cepeda felicitándome... es el momento en que sentí que de verdad había llegado.» Lo cierto es que Pérez mismo, en el año 2000, habría de ser el séptimo hispano en ingresar al Salón de la Fama. Sus 1652 carreras impulsadas en el transcurso de sus 20 años en las Grandes Ligas, con más de cien en siete de esas temporadas; sus nueve temporadas en que pegó al menos 20 cuadrangulares de sus 379 en total; sus siete intervenciones en Juegos de Estrellas; y sus cinco participaciones en la Serie Mundial con dos victorias, y con tres cuadrangulares contra los Medias Rojas de Boston en 1975, entre ellos un jonrón de dos carreras en la victoria de los Rojos por 4-3 en el Juego 7, lo habían hecho más que merecedor de semejante honor. «No puede uno determinar su destino —declaró Pérez en una entrevista sobre su carrera—. Pero estoy muy feliz de que todo haya sucedido de esta manera.»1 Gracias a Dios, es Él quien determina nuestro destino. Pues para quienes lo amamos, Él no sólo dispone todo para nuestro bien, sino también ya ha decidido que seamos semejantes a su Hijo Jesucristo, porque desde el principio Dios ha querido que su Hijo sea el mayor entre muchos hermanos. Más vale entonces que determinemos nosotros formar parte de su familia, permitiendo que nos adopte como hijos suyos.2 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Aidan Shephard, «Pérez Signing Sets Foundation for Big Red Machine» [La contratación de Pérez establece el fundamento para la Gran Maquinaria Roja], National Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown, N.Y.

Bo Jackson - On July 15, 1951, the New York Yankees demote struggling rookie Mickey Mantle to their Kansas City farm team in the American Association. Mantle will return to the Yankees in August and finish his first major league season with 13 home runs and 65 RBIs.On July 15, 1967, St. Louis Cardinals ace Bob Gibson suffers a broken leg when he is struck by a line drive hit by another future Hall of Famer, Roberto Clemente. Incredibly, Gibson pitches to two more batters before leaving the game. Gibson was sidelined until Labor day. He would come back and would win 3 games in the World Series against the Red Sox.On July 15, 1973, Before 41,411 in Detroit, California Angels ace Nolan Ryan hurls his second no-hitter of the season in taming the Detroit Tigers, 6 - 0. Ryan fans 17 batters, the most ever in a 9-inning no-hitter, including eight straight, but only one over the last two innings. Nolan's arm stiffens while watching his team rally for five runs in the top of the 8th. With two outs in the 9th, Norm Cash, who had struck out his three other times at bat, comes to bat wielding a piano leg. Umpire Ron Luciano points out the illegality and Cash then pops out using a regulation bat. Ryan's eight strikeouts in a row ties the American League record he set last year. On July 15, 1990, Bo Jackson of the Kansas City Royals hits home runs in three consecutive at-bats before separating his shoulder trying to make a diving catch against Deion Sanders of the New York Yankees. Jackson's power surge helps the Royals to a 10-7 victory, but the two-sport star will miss the next six weeks.On July 15, 1994 - In the first inning at Comiskey Park, Chicago White Sox manager Gene Lamont accuses Cleveland Indians slugger Albert Belle of using a corked bat, and umpire Dave Phillips confiscates the bat and stores it in the umps' dressing room. In a Mission Impossible caper revealed in 1999, the Indians' Jason Grimsley crawls 100 feet along a ceiling, drops down into the dressing room, and exchanges Belle's bat for one of Paul Sorrento's. After the 3 - 2 Indians win, the switch is discovered to the consternation of the umps and the White Sox. The Indians subsequently turn over one of Belle's bats and Belle is given a 10-day suspension, later reduced to seven games.Historical Recap performed by:Robyn Newton from - Robyn SaysTrivia is provided by -Horseshide TriviaThis Day In Baseball is Sponsored by - www.vintagebaseballreflections.com - Join the membership today and listen to 50 years of baseball history told to you by the folks who were there!

In 1998, Bill Clinton hosted a town hall on race and sports. 'If you've got a special gift,' the president said of athletes, 'you owe more back.' Gift and Grit shows how the sports industry has incubated racial ideas about advantage and social debt since the civil rights era by sorting athletes into two broad categories. The gifted athlete received something for nothing, we're told, and owes the team, the fan, the city, God, nation. The gritty athlete received nothing and owes no one. The distinction between gift and grit is racial, but also, Joseph Darda reveals, racializing: It has structured new racial categories and redrawn racial lines. Sports, built on an image of fairness, inform how we talk about advantage and deservedness in other domains, including immigration, crime, education, and labor. Gift and Grit tells the stories of Roger Bannister, Roberto Clemente, Martina Navratilova, Florence Griffith Joyner, and LeBron James – and the story their stories tell about the shifting meaning of race in America. Paul Knepper covered the New York Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book was The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All. His next book, Moses Malone: The Life of a Basketball Prophet, will be out in the fall of 2025. You can reach Paul at paulknepper@gmail.com and follow him on Twitter @paulieknep.

The distinction between gift and grit is racial, but also, Joseph Darda reveals, racializing: It has structured new racial categories and redrawn racial lines. Sports, built on an image of fairness, inform how we talk about advantage and deservedness in other domains, including immigration, crime, education, and labor. Gift and Grit tells the stories of Roger Bannister, Roberto Clemente, Martina Navratilova, Florence Griffith Joyner, and LeBron James – and the story their stories tell about the shifting meaning of race in America. Paul Knepper covered the New York Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book was The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All. His next book, Moses Malone: The Life of a Basketball Prophet, will be out in the fall of 2025. You can reach Paul at paulknepper@gmail.com and follow him on Twitter @paulieknep.

In Part 2 of Episode 273, the conversation turns toward one of the most personal and hotly debated concepts in the hobby: what exactly is a grail card? Jeremy is joined by Josh Adams (@midwestvintagecards) and, for the first time on Sports Cards Live, Theo from the Clemente Collector YouTube channel. Together they unpack the evolving meaning of the word “grail” — is it about price, scarcity, personal meaning, provenance, or all of the above? And can a grail be something you didn't even know existed until the moment you found it? Theo shares a moving story about acquiring a card once owned by Roberto Clemente himself, which became an instant grail for him — not because of dollar value, but because of what it represents. Jeremy reflects on the moment he acquired his own grail: the elusive 1914 Cracker Jack Joe Jackson, a card that wasn't even on his radar until it suddenly became possible. Josh offers a balanced take on subjective vs. objective grails, pushing back against the “flipper culture” that throws the term around loosely. This episode also previews major upcoming events like Hobby Palooza 2025 and a newly announced Vintage Trade Night at the National, and features great community insight from the live chat. Whether you collect rare vintage, modern inserts, or player-specific PC grails — this one will speak to your collector soul.

On December 31, 1972, Roberto Clemente -- the Hall of Fame right fielder whose grace on the diamond was matched only by his humanitarian spirit -- boarded a cargo plane bound for Nicaragua, carrying relief supplies for victims of a devastating earthquake. The plane crashed shortly after takeoff from Puerto Rico, and Clemente, just 38 years old, was never found. A 15-time All-Star and the first Latin American player to reach 3,000 hits, Clemente broke barriers both on and off the field. His tragic death turned him into more than just a baseball legend -- it made him a symbol of selflessness, courage, and the unshakable will to serve others, even at the ultimate cost.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 116: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: I want polling on a special, emergency, extra-constitutional Presidential Recall Vote. I know there isn't going to BE a Presidential Recall Vote. I know we're not going extra-constitutional, we're not REPUBLICANS dammit. But they are always making up laws (inside the Supreme Court and outside of it) on the premise that the people really want it, so after this week of unprecedented insane unnecessary failure on the part of Trump and his Team of Imbecilic Rivals, I want to know where we stand. Because the moment we get 10 Republicans in the House and 14 in the Senate to believe that if Trump stays in office, their careers are over, he's gone. Half of them think he's nuts already and a quarter have had doubts. They need to be pushed and I don't want to wait until the mid-terms for them to get the damned message I want SOME pollster - independent, news-related, hired by the Democrats, SOMEBODY - to ask these questions: 1) if the election were re-run today would you vote for Trump or a Democrat. Or another Republican. Or a fairly intelligent farm animal. 2) would you support a special recall vote to potentially reverse the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. 3) would you describe the current financial panic and the upcoming tsunami of inflation and unemployment as a national emergency. 4) do you think Donald Trump has lost his mind. 5) do you think Donald Trump is mentally fit to run the country. 6) do you think Donald Trump is acting to destroy the United States on behalf of a foreign country. 7) do you think it is necessary to act outside the constitution if necessary to save the United States of America FROM Donald Trump. 8) if the midterm elections for the Senate and the House were tomorrow would you vote Republican or Democratic? WHATEVER the percentages are they could easily scare the crap out of 10 House Republicans and 14 Senate Republicans and the day they do, Trump vanishes. You doubt me? Ask Richard Nixon. Ask Abraham Lincoln, whom they were ready to get rid of seven months before Lee surrendered at Appomattox because they thought he wasn't going to be re-elected. Also is it possible the Democrats are listening to me? Obama emerges to spout sense, as I've asked. The DNC Chair founds "The People's Cabinet." All we need now is POLLING ON A PRESIDENTIAL RECALL VOTE. B-Block (31:28) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The Pittsburgh Pirates rip a Roberto Clemente memorial off their outfield wall to make room for an ad for seltzer, a Republican influencer insists there are no tariffs on Russia because we don't import anything from Russia (we import $2.5 Billion a year from Russia), and the Secretary of the Treasury wants YOU to buy American while he buys British. (41:28) SPORTSBALLCENTER: Alexander Ovechkin DOES have more goals than Wayne Gretzky now, but no, that's still not the big league hockey record (and Gretzky managed to throw himself out another window during the celebrations) and the date of the first American, maybe the first human, to be photographed giving the finger to the cameraman has to be pushed back from 1886 to 1882 after a discovery this weekend about baseball Hall of Famer Old Hoss Radbourn. C-Block (55:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I have been asked by a listener to expand on last week's news that Chuck Todd not only does not realize that his news career is over but he thinks investors are going to give him $2,000,000,000 to go buy a news organization now. The answer to the question "Chuck Todd: Why?"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
