Pittsburgh Sports Memories

Forgotten Controversies

Tim and Steve

Remember the time that the NFL refused to play the National Anthem at a Steelers game? Or the time Mario Lemieux said he would rather play for someone else other than the team he owned? Or the time the Browns endangered the life of their QB in an attempt to beat the Steelers? Or the time Roberto Clemente was accused of disrespecting the city decades after his death? These were all controversies which generated a lot of outrage at the time but have since been largely lost to history. In this episode, we will re-examine the forgotten controversies of Pittsburgh sports. How many will you remember?
