Per my normal routine, I’ve been hopping around processing photos from different trips, photo walks, locations, dates, etc… Last weekend I was processing photos I took in 2016 from the Carrie Furnace. That’s when I found this beauty waiting to be viewed. This was inside the main building that supported the steel blast furnace.

All the NFL teams are in training camp getting ready for their first preseason games. William Gay was a staple of the Steelers defense for years. This year he signed an agreement to play with the New York Giants. I wish him luck. He was a colorful player with the Steelers during my time covering the team. I took this photo of him last season.

I’m not sure the status of Mike at this point. I think the Steelers released him in March to avoid his salary cap hit with their roster. So, I think he is currently a free agent…. I haven’t heard of him signing with another team, but I couldn’t find anything about him. During pre-game, when the Steelers would announce the defensive player, he would always wear a Terrible Towel over this face like this. It was sort of his trademark.

This is a big NFL football weekend. Normally, I don’t care much about week 17 because lets face it…by now my Detroit Lions are normally looking forward to the next draft, not to the playoffs. This year is finally different. Not only are the Detroit Lions in the playoffs for a change, but the week 17 game against Green Bay determines the division winner and who gets the 1st round playoff bye. So you can imagine my excitement…..
For the Steelers fans, this week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals is a big game as well. The winner of that game becomes the division champion too. So today’s picture is the future Hall Of Famer safety Troy Polamalu.
Go Lions!!!

I don’t know about the rest of the world, but I love the fact that the NFL changed their schedule a few years ago to include a game every Thursday night. While sitting here watching the Saints vs. the Falcons (after I was a good and exercised at the gym), I got thinking about the fun I had shooting photos on the sideline of 4 football games this year. I covered two Big East University of Pittsburgh Panther games and two NFL Pittsburgh Steelers games. Here is a picture of Safety Da’Mon Cromartie-Smith from about a month ago. He has since been moved to the team’s practice squad, but I don’t care. I love this picture and hope he makes it back onto the Steelers roster soon.
