Why would Tomlin, Harbaugh consider going to Texas?

Did you see the report that Mike Tomlin and Jim Harbaugh are possible candidates for the Texas job?

We're talking Texas Longhorns, not Houston Texans.

I don't see it.

You have two coaches from flagship franchises in the NFL that might go to the college ranks?

I don't see it.

The theory is there's no salary cap, the coach has ultimate control of the team, etc., compared to their NFL jobs.

I still don't see.

Can someone make a better argument?

Pirates opener: A lot to like

I'm a sucker for opening day. I've been going to Three Rivers/PNC Park many years now to kick off the start to Pirates' season in good times and bad. I enjoy the crowds, the ceremonies and all of trimmings that come with the opener. Monday at PNC Park was no different. Except if you're looking at the Pirates' record at PNC. Zach Duke looked like an all-star, the offense looked like the Lumber Company of old and the crowd had one heck of a time celebrating the Bucs' 7-0 win. It was just the Pirates third win at a PNC Park opener. The game was one to remember. Adam LaRoche (!) and Ryan Doumit hit home runs, Freddy Sanchez looked like a former batting champion and the fans actually had "the wave" going around the park. But it was Duke's day. It was his third career shutout and the first shutout in a home opener since 1978. Yeah, it was a good day. It all came together for the Pirates. Maybe there's more down the road this year.

Wow. The Bucs sweep the Reds

Do you think the St. Louis Cardinals are getting nervous yet? Probably not, but it's fun to think that they might be looking in their rear-view mirror as the Bucs sit one game out of first place after sweeping the Cincinnati Reds this weekend. What was particularly encouraging is the way the Bucs are going about business. They rallied in the ninth inning Friday and Saturday to win the first two games of the series. With a chance to sweep, Paul Maholm had a strong outing on the mound, giving up just four hits. Meanwhile, the Pirates made the most of their five hits, scoring five runs in the fourth inning against the Reds on Sunday. Key hitting. Strong pitching. Good bullpen. It's a recipe for success, and the Bucs have followed it in four of their past five games. Yeah, it's been fun. And I know the bottom can fall out at any given moment for this franchise. After all, they were 9-6 last season. But at least not everyone is satisfied with the start. ...
