    Cook: Pittsburgh in midst of coaching golden era

    Penguins coach Dan Bylsma won the Jack Adams Award as the NHL coach of the year Wednesday night, but the big winners are the fans. They have a terrific young coach. Bylsma is well on his way to becoming the longest-tenured and most successful coach in franchise history. More Stanley Cups are in his future.

    If you think about it, all Pittsburgh sports fans are pretty lucky when it comes to their coaches. Bylsma has won a Cup in his first 2 1/2 seasons. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has won a Super Bowl and taken the team to another in his first four seasons. Pirates manager Clint Hurdle, in his first season, has done a marvelous job getting his team to .500 in late June against all odds after 18 consecutive losing seasons...........

    We are very blessed here in the Burgh to have 3 pretty damned awesome coaches for our major sports franchises! I still believe Coach T should have won the NFL Coach of the Year last season considering what he and his staff accomplished without their franchise QB for the first 4 games and a cut and paste OL. All 3 coaches are fairly young and hopefully will be here for a VERY long time!

    Didn't Ron Cook once imply that the Steelers only hired Tomlin because of "The Rooney Rule"?? Now he is on the bandwagon.

    The guy is a hack of a sportswriter.
