Here’s the latest on the Pittsburgh Steelers, Brandon Aiyuk trade saga

Welcome to the never-ending Brandon Aiyuk and Pittsburgh Steelers saga. The Steelers and San Francisco 49ers have remained in deep negotiations for Aiyuk for the better part of three days, and yet nothing has been resolved on either end.
So, the real question remains: what is the holdup between the Steelers and the 49ers? Aiyuk does not want to play for the Cleveland Browns or New England Patriots, and the contract side of things with Aiyuk is essentially done with the Steelers.

Rumor: Aaron Rodgers spotted leaving Pittsburgh hotel — what does it mean for Steelers?

Aaron Rodgers has been spotted in Pittsburgh — as a Steelers fan claimed on 93.7 The Fan that the four-time MVP was seen leaving a Strip District hotel.
On Friday, “Brett from the South Side” called in to tell The Pomp and Joe Show on 93.7 The Fan that Rodgers was spotted leaving an unnamed hotel:
“So Joe, here’s the deal. I’m not a flaky guy and I don’t know what this means — I’m not going to say he’s signing today, announcing it today, or in two months — but, in the Strip District, this morning at 6:15 a.m., I saw Aaron Rodgers coming out of a hotel.”
Brett told 93.7 The Fan that he owns a cleaning company and asked them not to share the specific hotel name in order to protect his business. Apparently, Brett confirmed with the hotel that Rodgers was staying there — but even if the story is true, what does it mean for the Steelers?
Well, the Strip District is less than five miles from the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex — and Steelers OTAs kick off on May 27.
If the sighting proves to be accurate, is there any correlation between Rodgers staying in Pittsburgh so close to the start of OTAs — and if so, when will the news be made official?

Pirates vs. Brewers Stops for Rain Delay

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Pirates and Milwaukee Brewers had to stop their game for a rain delay at PNC Park.
The Pirates trail the Brewers, 5-3, and had both center fielder Oneil Cruz on third base and designated hitter Andrew McCutchen on first base with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning.
The umpires eventually decided that the game needed a delay, with rain coming down, and the Pirates groundscrew came out and got he tarp over the infield.
The Pirates gave an update and said that it would restart at 10:00 p.m.
This marks the fifth rain delay for the Pirates this season, all coming during the month of May, but the first game that had a rain delay during it taking place, as the previous four saw the first pitch start time move up.
Pittsburgh had back-to-back rain delays against the San Diego Padres at PNC Park on May 2 and May 3.
The first rain delay moved the start from 6:40 to 7:50, a 70 minute delay, and the second game got moved from 4:05 p.m. to 5:45 p.m., an hour and 40 minute delay.
The Pirates also had two rain delays on their recent road trip. They had a 15 minute delay vs. the New York Mets at Citi Park on May 14, moving first pitch from 7:10 p.m. to 7:25 p.m., and an hour and 45 minute delay vs. the Philadelphia Phillies on May 16, which moved first pitch from 6:45 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Pittsburgh is 1-3 in their rain delay games this season, as they lost both games vs. the Padres and 8-3 to the Phllies, while winning 4-1 against the Mets.
This marks the first meeting between the Pirates and Brewers this season and the Pirates have now played all their opponents in the National League Central Division.
Milwaukee is 24-26 overall and fourth in the NL Central, six games behind the Chicago Cubs in first place and four games behind the San Diego Padres for the final NL Wild Card spot.
Pirates OnSI will provide updates if there is any change to the restart time or a cancellation

Fourth case of whooping cough reported at Rostraver Elementary School

A fourth case of whooping cough has been reported at Rostraver Elementary in the Belle Vernon Area School District.
Belle Vernon Area Superintendent Dr. Timothy Glasspool notified the school community in a letter on Wednesday, saying that the district was notified of the confirmed case by the Pennsylvania Department of Health.
Three previous cases were reported in late April and early May and Dr. Glasspool says there’s no known connection or link between the four students who have tested positive for the illness.
The students who have tested positive are in first, second, and fifth grades, Dr. Glasspool said.
Dr. Glasspool said that the Department of Health isn’t recommending any changes to school operations, but the district is strongly encouraging families to keep students home from school and activities if they are showing signs of illness, especially if they are coughing.”
Last year, cases of whooping cough spiked on the state and national level, and Allegheny County’s newly released data shows the county was hit hard.
Whooping cough is characterized by violent or prolonged coughing, and is highly contagious.
