    About this Blog

    If a big-time event took place in Pittsburgh sports since 2002, Rossi helped cover it for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Major League Baseball's All-Star Game, Super Bowl XL, the Penguins' new arena saga -- Rossi has seen a lot, including angry looks from local legends such as Bill Cowher and Mario Lemieux. He has not dined with kings, but did interview one in Jerry Lawler. Aside from Mick Jagger, Rossi has proven willing to ask anybody just about anything, then write about it. (With Jagger, he was willing to ask, but, to his own embarrassment, not able.)

    Name: Rob, aka "Rossi"

    Bio: Rossi is a Pittsburgh native and West Virginia University graduate. He is single, hence his fondness for some of the finer adult beverage establishments along Carson Street on the South Side — specifically Smokin' Joes Saloon. Also, you can likely catch him at the Mt. Lebanon Dairy Queen. At this point, he knows very little of what passes for popular culture. Rossi was with the Steelers at Super Bowl XL and spent 2006 covering the Pirates. His responsibilities since 2007 have included hanging on Sidney Crosby's every word and making the most of what few Evgeni Malkin speaks in English as Trib Total Media's Penguins beat reporter. He is the local chapter president of the Professional Hockey Writers' Association.
