Another Pittsburgh sports blog? Well yes and no.
Who are we? We are Pittsburgh
natives who attend, watch, analyze, bet and cheer on as many Pittsburgh sports teams
and games as anyone else in the city.
We are you. We are
fans. We will write about the topics you
talk about at the tailgate before the Steelers play Baltimore and you
need to chug down one more IC Light before making it in for kickoff. Hence our name, Gold Lot Sports. Tailgate talk for real tailgaters like us.
Also, we are not going to talk X’s and O’s, defensive
formations, box scores, or recaps. Those
are for the experts. We are far from
experts.
We know you can Google search “Pirates vs Reds Box Score”, or
“How many interceptions has Kenny Pickett thrown.” We don’t want to stop you from doing that.
What we want to bring you is an opinion on our teams. If they’re losing, what would we do to fix
it? If they’re winning, what has been
the catalyst?
We also want to enlighten you on things that maybe you just
don’t have the time to look for. Like, “So
how is Najee Harris trending in his development?” or “What happened to Cole
Tucker?”.
We also will have news you may have missed like a trade or an injury. We will never deliver something
you can find in a box score.
I have never heard anyone talk about needing to put the tight end in
motion on 3rd and 6 while they were tossing bags at a cornhole board
in the Gold Lot. That’s not us.
We will hate the team after a loss and love the team after a
win. We will contradict ourselves, jump
to conclusions, and make all the mistakes fans just like us make every
season. We will rule out the Penguins after
they lose a defenseman to injury and then expect them to win the Stanley Cup
after a winning streak in March. We may
love Pat Narduzzi after they dominate UMass and hate him after Pitt fakes a
punt late at Virginia Tech.
Just know, we are die hard fans, just like yourselves and we
want to entertain you. We want to create
conversation. And we want to try and
answer the same questions you post on social media after a big
game.
We are Gold Lot Sports. Tailgate talk for tailgaters like us.
