Terrell Owens Calls Out Former Steelers OC
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers and Todd Haley had a nice run together. Haley served as the team’s offensive coordinator for six seasons between 2012 and 2018. His last season with the team was a difficult one, but most have fond memories of his run with the Steelers.
Not everyone is a fan of Haley, though. Recently, Hall of Fame wide receiver Terrell Owens appeared on the Bubba Dub podcast hosted by Jerry Bubba. During their chat, Owens dished on some coaches he didn’t like working with, naming Todd Haley specifically.
“You have people who don’t even have a lot of experience and they jump up to offensive coordinators,” he said. “Sometimes, for some people, you gradually work your way up. Some people do, some people don’t, because of relationships.”
Owens said he experienced that first-hand when he worked with Haley. Haley was the wide receiver coach for the Dallas Cowboys from 2004 to 2006, where he coached Owens. According to the Hall of Famer, it wasn’t Haley’s work or credentials that earned him the role.
“There was a guy, Todd Haley, that I got coached by in Dallas,” he said. “And then he went on to Pittsburgh, he only got those jobs because of his dad. He wasn’t the best receiving coach I ever had, but he got that job.”
It’s an interesting point of view that Owens has. In their lone season of working together with the Cowboys, he was incredibly productive. He hauled in 85 receptions for 1,180 yards and a league-leading 13 receiving touchdowns.
To Owens’ credit, Todd Haley’s lineage did play a huge part in his NFL emergence. Haley’s father, Dick Haley, had an illustrious playing and executive career in the NFL. He most notably served as the Steelers’ director of player personnel between 1971 and 1990, helping to bring four Super Bowl titles to the organization in the 70’s.
Because of his father’s reputation and experience, it paved the way for Todd to get his first opportunities. His first NFL job was with the New York Jets in 1995, where he was hired as assistant in the scouting department.
The person who hired him? His father, Dick Haley, who was working as the Jets’ director of player personnel at the time.
From there, Haley had to bust his tail to work up the ladder. He had two stops as a wide receiving coach before getting his first offensive coordinator job with the Arizona Cardinals.
It was there that Todd Haley earned his reputation as an offensively gifted coach. The Cardinals offense was explosive during his two year tenure, including a spectacular run to Super Bowl 43.
He parlayed that into his first head coaching job with the Kansas City Chiefs. He worked there for three seasons before being fired, and that’s when the Steelers brought Haley in to assist Ben Roethlisberger and the team’s offense. Under his watch, the Steelers were an exciting offense. Nearly six years later, the team is still struggling to find that offensive output again.

Nearly a Century Old, This Sears House Kit Home in Fineview is Still Fine | Pittsburgh Magazine
Built in 1928, the hillside home is packed with original millwork, charming details and loads of storage.

When Alena Taylor Keefe was in elementary school, her family moved to 2035 Biggs Ave. in Pittsburgh’s Fineview neighborhood.
The year was 1975, and she recalls being delighted with the Craftsman-style home built from a Sears housing kit that her family would call theirs for the next 50 years.
“It’s a place that you can call home,” she says. “Some places you can’t really say that about, but it’s just such a great family home.”
Built in 1928, the house has three bedrooms and one bathroom packed into 1,500 square feet.
“I grump about the fact that there’s only one bathroom and the kitchen is small because I love to cook, but I still made it work for many family suppers,” Keefe says. “We hosted holiday dinners where we extended the dining table into the living room to accommodate everybody. It was just home.”
The first floor of the home has that small, yet functional kitchen, a nicely sized dining room and a large living room that spans the front of the home. Keefe warmly recalls coming down the front staircase on Christmas mornings and posing in formal dresses beside the steps before school dances. She says her family also enjoyed the long front porch that runs along the living room.
“My dad would come out and read the newspaper, and I’d be on the swing with my mom while she worked on her crochet,” she says.
On the second floor, three equally sized bedrooms share a hallway bathroom with double sinks. A set of pull-down stairs leads to ample storage under the eaves.
Now in their 80s, Keefe’s parents have moved to a maintenance-free home near Keefe’s current home in Beaver County, so they can continue to enjoy family dinners together, but without the responsibility of home ownership.
While Keefe is wistful about selling the home her parents carefully loved for half a century, she is certain a new buyer will recognize its charm and value.
“So much has never been touched,” she says. “There is original woodwork, an original fireplace that still has a coal chute to the outside and a lovely built-in China cabinet in the dining room.”
Keefe also touts the home’s plentiful storage; there’s a clean, dry basement, attic storage and a detached two-car garage with a lower level could be space for a workshop, studio or general storage.
Keefe notes the roof was replaced in the last decade; there also were updates to the HVAC, including adding air conditioning, and the family replaced the upstairs flooring in preparation to sell the carefully maintained home.
The house is now listed by Brian Larson of Howard Hanna for $245,000. He says it checks all the right boxes for a first-time homebuyer — or anyone shopping for a clean, well-maintained home.
“This is a home that has clearly been loved and lived in with care,” says Larson. “Over the years, attention has been given to maintaining and improving the property in a way that supports comfortable, everyday living. While no home of this era is ever ‘finished,’ per se, the overall condition reflects consistent stewardship rather than deferred maintenance.”
Larson says buyers should not have issues with financing for this home, including loans through the Federal Housing Administration or other specialized lending programs. Priced right around the city’s median home price, Larson encourages shoppers to check it out.
“Many first-time buyer programs are available that may offer down payment assistance and competitive interest rates, helping make homeownership more attainable for qualified buyers,” he says.
Larson adds that he loves the sun-soaked room that runs along the front of the home, as well as the wide front porch and the property’s proximity to Fineview Park.
“Fineview is also known as one of the best vantage points in the city for fireworks and skyline views,” he adds. “With convenient bus access and an easy commute to Downtown, the neighborhood offers a unique blend of tranquility, accessibility and city connection.”
Keefe says that while the neighbors have changed over the course of 50 years, her family has always been thankful for the close-knit Fineview community.
“There are some chickens running loose, but everybody up there is so kind,” she says with a laugh. “The mailman lives up on the corner; everybody knows everybody. It’s just so nice.”

CRAWFORD COUNTY —Law enforcement are investigating another deadly shooting involving a Kansas teen.
Just before 9p.m. Friday, police along with first responder units from Pittsburg Fire Department and Crawford County EMS, were dispatched to a shooting at Schlanger Park, 725 E 6th Street in Pittsburg, according to a media release. First responders found that an adult male had been shot and had subsequently died as a result of his injuries.
The victim, who was identified as 18-year-old Adam Basauri, of Girard, was pronounced deceased at the scene. Basauri’s body was sent to Kansas City for an autopsy.
The scene was secured and investigators with the Pittsburg Police Department responded to assist with the investigation. Witnesses on scene advised the suspect had fled the scene in a vehicle. Witnesses were transported to the police department to be interviewed while the search for the suspect was ongoing.
At approximately 9:46 p.m. the suspect and suspect’s vehicle were located in Arma, Kansas, by deputies with the Crawford County Sheriff’s Office.
The suspect, who was identified as a 17-year-old juvenile, was taken into custody and transported to the Pittsburg Police Department for questioning. The juvenile suspect’s vehicle was secured and towed to the Pittsburg Police Department to be processed.
After interviewing the witnesses’ investigators were able to determine that a brief altercation took place between Basauri and the juvenile suspect. During the altercation, the suspect shot Basauri.
As a result, the 17-year-old juvenile, of Pittsburg, was placed under arrest. Juvenile Intake responded and processed the juvenile suspect. The juvenile suspect was transported to the Southeast KS Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Girard. He is being held on a requested charge of murder in the second degree.
