I'm watching "First Take" right now but they haven't interrupted the show for this alleged breaking news.

This came in email form from an alternate sport site.

1. Sounds like fake news

Would be a massive story that would be everywhere immediately. Timing doesn't make sense either.

[brush]

3. Probably so. Nothing on "First Take" or "Sports Center."

2. If true

Come and get his kid please

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

6. Please, with sugar on it

[BeerBarrelPolka]

12. Yes

And tow his Rolls Royce

4. Nothing on espn site about that.

Steelers wouldn’t fire Tomlin for Sanders. No way.

7. It's probably fake news, but I've heard the Steelers brass as sick of going 9-8 or...

10-7 and losing in the first round of the playoffs...then never being able to get a franchise QB. I mean they're putting up with 42-year-old Aaron Rodger's bullshit, not committing to play for them.

A 2-year-old? For what, one year?

5. Fake news

Nothing came up about it on a Google search.

8. Um, Mike Tomlin hasn't been canned....yet

[brush]

10. "Yet" being the key word. Steeler brass tired of being 1 and done it the playoffs.

[Brother Buzz]

11. Yes, and THAT will be the story....when it happens

If it comes to pass (Which I strongly doubt), Deion Sanders wouldn't make an entry until the second act.

9. He just signed a 5 yr $54 million contract extension with CU Buffaloes through 2029...

Deion Sanders has signed a five-year, $54 million contract extension with the Colorado Buffaloes, extending his tenure through the 2029 season. This extension makes him one of the highest-paid coaches in college football and ensures he remains in Boulder for the foreseeable future

Granted, contracts may be "relative" to someone with his background/money, but still...
