Another American icon gone.

One of America’s oldest beer brands discontinued after 177 years in US

Schlitz Premium, the Milwaukee-born lager that once dominated the U.S. brewing industry, is being discontinued after more than 175 years.

My grandfather owned / operated a couple beer distributorships in Erie, PA. Schlitz was a top seller.

Schlitz malt liquor was deadly.

Wow......Steelers took a hit. Would have thought with Mike McCarthy coming onboard to replace Mike Tomlin and Rodgers coming back for another season would have been a boost.

Interestingly, as a testimonial to Rooney family loyalty towards the coaches, Mike McCarthy is the 4th coach to lead the team in 57 years.

The Arizona Cardinals have had 8 head coaches since 2000.

But Mccarthy is in his 60s. In the past the steelers always picked a coach in his 40s. So I'm not sure how long Mccarthy is going to last?

Very true.

In a way, I'm wondering if McCarthy was picked because of his history with Rodgers. Frankly, Rodgers is a bit overrated at this stage of the game. He's certainly no Tom Brady and a bit full of himself. He hasn't meshed as well with the Steelers organization as someone of his caliber should.

McCarthy might be able to keep Rodger's ego in check. Who knows.
