Rossi is a turd.

It is true that muckraking journalism is meant to spur up debate. Usually that debate is supposed to involve the topic of the article. Instead, the discussion is about how rob rossi is a turd.

I unfortunately caught the end of Rossi on 93.7 yesterday talking about this article.

He ended his "interview" with something like "I have the opinions that Pittsburgh needs, but they're they opinions that Pittsburgh doesn't deserve."

He truly is a giant piece of garbage.

Lamar Woodley would be cheaper and closer to body type.
