Al Everest Fired as ST coach in Pittsburg

WRATHman44 · 2012-08-23T18:41:05-07:00

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/football/nfl/08/23/steelers-al-everest.ap/index.html?sct=nfl_t2_a8 I'm kinda surprised by this. I thought he did a good job for us, and I was pretty pissed when Singebraincell let him go. I guess their ST sucked last year, but I don't know how many dedicated ST players they have. It will be interesting to see if he finds a job this far into the preseason.

It's not like there was a better 49er FA for Al to take w/him when he left. We had somedark years for a bit

If I ever get a really good tan and become a pro-wrestler I'm going to use that name.

Al Everest had nothing to do with the minimal ST success we had during the closing years of the 'second dark age', it was all Allen Rossum & Michael Robinson.

Agreed, after Allen got injured we took a hugh drop off in returns an punts. Besides, we have a much better coach now!

Wasn't Rossum like 47 years old and always getting slowed down by non-contact injuries? As far as MRob: yeah I wish we kept him. Stupid Singletary cut him the same year he dumped Everest. At least Harbaugh brought in Seely, who is a clear upgrade.
