Pennsylvania fire chief calls Steelers coach Mike Tomlin a ‘no-good n*gger’ over NFL protests

A fire chief from Pennsylvania has apologized for calling Steelers coach Mike Tomlin a “no-good n*gger” after his team did not come out onto the field for the national anthem during this Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears.

CBS Pittsburgh reports that Paul Smith, the chief of the volunteer fire department in Cecil Township, Pennsylvania, posted on Facebook that Tomlin “just added himself to the list of no-good n*ggers” for his decision to note take the field during the anthem.

“Yes, I said it,” Smith added afterward.

10. Yep, Yikes is right............

I live in Allegheny County, about 10 miles from Cecil, which is in Washington County. I'm about 4 miles from downtown Pittsburgh. I drive through Cecil fairly often, going to Farmer's Markets and such, so I knew exactly what the face of Cecil is, it's white.
