  1. Aaron Rodgers gives his assessment on how the Steelers did against the Saints: “I don't think we played very well on offense today. Credit to their defense, but we've got a lot to work on. They're a 2-5 team, and we're a 5-2 team, but we're not playing as well as we can at this point. I thought our defense played great. It was a disjointed game because of the length of the possessions, but we were really bad in the red zone. We've got to clean that up. We had too many penalties, especially 15-yard penalties. However, it's hard to win in this league. We traveled over on Thursday night, and by Friday, guys were tired, so it was a gutsy win for us. But we've got to go back, get healthy, and play better. We've got Cleveland next week.” #Steelers #NFL

  3. Mike McCarthy praises the Veteran Leadership with the Steelers: “Our young defensive linemen have played well. They're doing some really good things. Cam has done an excellent job with his leadership and the way he gives back. Veterans can offer so much in the little things, whether it's something they say during a one-on-one drill, a quick conversation in the weight room, or a point they make while watching film. It's a lot like parenting. You tell your kids something two or three times, but then if Aaron Rodgers, Cam Heyward, or T.J. Watt says the same thing, it's like they've never heard it before. That's just the reality of it.” #Steelers #NFL

  4. Getting Out of the GM Chair

    The online gaming group that (in part) gave birth to Cannibal Halfling Gaming works on a rotating roster of gamemasters and campaigns. The typical  arrangement is that two campaigns are being run by two different GMs, trading off our weekly slot so that we can maximize the number of games we play, give GMs a rest between sessions, and get back into thing quickly if we have to scratch a week. Exactly who those two GMs are also changes; in terms of first session to last session most campaigns last about a year, with perhaps 15-20 sessions, and many GMs then step down to let another step up. This last July, I wrapped up a game of Cyberpunk RED that had lasted three and a half years with 42 sessions. Depending on how you count things (because Aaron built a DIE-shaped trap door into a Burned Over campaign, cheeky bugger that he is), Cyberpunk RED: The Alleyway ran alongside/outlasted 2-3 other campaigns. Unsurprisingly, I'm no longer in the GM seat for that group. It will likely be a few years before I return to the GMing chair in that group, actually, and that's okay! However, after a few weeks I realized that, for the first time in maybe a decade... I wasn't running anything for anyone. […]

  5. Fox Sports writer Ralph Vacchiano named Patrick Queen as the ‘most likely’ player the Steelers would trade: “Queen’s only 27 and still a tackling machine, but he’s never quite had the impact the Steelers expected when they signed him to a three-year, $41 million deal. Now in the last year of that contract, he makes perfect sense as a rental for a team that needs defensive help down the stretch. It could be tough to sell anyone for a team trying to make one last playoff run for retiring QB Aaron Rodgers. But the Steelers also just brought back veteran ILB Elandon Roberts, who is 32 and could be a short-term fill-in if Queen is dealt.” #Steelers #NFL

    About

    Following acclaimed performances in Athlone, Castlebar, Ballinrobe and Galway, The Crucified Silence comes to Manchester on Sunday 22nd November at 6pm, bringing a distinctive voice from the West of Ireland to the iconic Irish World Heritage Centre.

    Hilarious, heartbreaking and brimming with dark Irish humour, The Crucified Silence is a compelling one-man play written and performed by acclaimed Irish playwright Mick Donnellan. Set in Ballinrobe, Co. Mayo, the story follows Joe, a local guard who has crossed a line after a volatile altercation with his superintendent. As he drinks his way around town, he conjures vivid, nostalgic images of familiar landmarks and meeting places, including The Bowers walk, Art O’Neill’s Bar and Geoff’s pub. These recollections bring his world to life, drawing audiences into a community shaped by its own rhythms, rituals and relationships.

    Yet beneath the laughter lies a deeply moving story of loneliness, loss, regret and the search for connection. Just as Joe’s sharp wit and comic observations have audiences laughing, glimpses of his troubled past reveal a more vulnerable man struggling to come to terms with the life he has lost. The result is a play that can have you laughing out loud one moment and breaking your heart the next.

    Populated by recognisable Irish characters and brought vividly to life through authentic Irish dialect, cultural nuances and a rich tradition of storytelling, the play offers a compelling glimpse into the humour, warmth and complexities of everyday life in rural Ireland. For those familiar with Irish life, there is much to recognise; for those discovering it for the first time, an opportunity to experience a distinctive culture through characters who feel wonderfully real.

    The Venue

    A much-loved hub for Irish culture, arts and community in the North West of England, the Irish World Heritage Centre provides a fitting setting for a play that celebrates Irish storytelling while exploring experiences that transcend borders and backgrounds.

    For Manchester’s Irish community, the evening offers a powerful sense of home, evoking the people, places, humour and shared experiences that connect us to where we come from. It is also a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the strength of Irish theatre and the remarkable stories being created in Ireland and finding audiences beyond its shores.

    Universal Appeal

    Although Joe’s world may be rooted in a small town in Co. Mayo, his struggles are universal. His attempts to make sense of a life shaped by difficult choices, personal loss and fading connections will resonate with anyone, from all cultures and backgrounds, who has ever looked back on their past and wondered how things might have turned out differently.

    With minimal staging and intimate, uncompromising storytelling, the play places audiences face to face with Joe’s inner world, where humour becomes a defence against pain and silence can speak louder than words. Mick Donnellan’s powerful central performance draws audiences towards a devastating climax, balancing theatrical intensity with the feeling of a deeply personal confession.

    All are welcome to join for an evening of big laughs, poignant storytelling, heartbreaking moments and an unforgettable injection of high-quality theatre!

    About Truman Town:

    Truman Town Theatre exploded on to the theatrical circuit with their Play – Sunday Morning Coming Down. Written and directed by the company’s Artistic Director Mick Donnellan, it immediately sold out the Galway Town Hall Studio for five nights on the first run. Following that, the crew went on tour to Mayo, selling out Lisloughrey Lodge, Cong,The Valkenburg Niteclub, Ballinrobe and the Linenhall in Castlebar. It also enjoyed large audiences on the Main Stage on Galway’s Town Hall and went on a National Tour covering – Glor Ennis, St. John’s Listowel, Cork Arts Theatre and it sold out five nights at The New Theatre, Dublin. It was also performed by DRUID as a public reading during the Galway Arts Festival.

    Truman Town followed this phenomenal success with a second Play – Shortcut to Hallelujah. Again, written and directed by Mick Donnellan, it deals with the curse on the Mayo football team. It sold out the Town Hall Studio, went on tour to Ballinrobe and the Linenhall in Castlebar and then down to St. John’s Theatre, Listowel Co. Kerry where it was requested back to headline Friday night of Listowel Writer’s week.

    Between this, a third drama was produced as part of the Galway Theatre Festival. It was titled Gun Metal Grey.

    Shortcut to Hallelujah returned from Listowel Writer’s Week to perform on the Main Stage Galway for a wildly successful five nights after which Velvet Revolution, the fourth Truman Town production, also written by Mick Donnellan, was premiered in St. John’s Theatre, Listowel. It went on tour to Kilmallock, Kenmare and Waterville, then up to Ballinrobe, on to Galway and ran for ten days as part of the Galway Fringe. Mentioned as a Highlight of the festival by the Irish times, it was subsequently performed in Campbell’s Tavern, Cloghanover, Headford, Electric Picnic and The New Theatre, Temple Bar, Dublin.

    Radio Luxembourg, Mick’s fifth Play, was bought by a London Film Company (Dixon/Baxi/Evans) and has been adapted for the screen. The title for the movie version is “Tiger Raid”. Starring Brian Gleeson, Damian Molony and Sofia Boutella, it was accepted into the Tribeca film festival (New York) and was seen at Cannes and Edinburgh. The Irish Premiere was screened at the Galway Film Fleadh.

    Currently Mick is working on the exciting screen adaptation of Shortcut to Hallelujah with Florence Films. The screenplay is titled Sam and is based around the curse supposedly put on the Mayo Football team as they returned home as All Ireland Champions in 1951.  Drenched in Irish lyricism and modern day dark humour, the script has been met with keen interest by film producers and actors throughout the industry.
