Patrick Queen won the chief award.

It was being presented by the Pittsburgh chapter of the Pro Football Writers Association as the most cooperative of the meet.

with the media, and as we're speaking now, Derek Harmon won the Joe Green Great Performance Award as Rookie of the Year.

He gets his name on a plaque that nobody sees, so yes.

I think it's tomorrow.

Tomorrow, okay.

I think they're going to do that tomorrow.

Well, for one more day, it's Joe Rudder.

Ah.

Because old Scoot himself is retiring in about six hours.

Yes.

Yep, he's retiring.

It will be done

Actually, I think he might hold on until the season's end, which might be Sunday, but officially he's done December 31st, which is today.

Yeah, and he saved me from singing soprano, too, because it was aiming right for the nether regions of mine, and I froze, and he saved my life.

Yeah, I think his first season covering the Pirates was 93.

Until maybe 2010, 2013.

Then he came to the Steelers, I think, in 2016.

Had a couple good years, but mediocre Joe after that.

So maybe it's Rudder's fault.
