A very sad day for The Steelers Nation. Myron was REAL Pittsburgh...a part of our city has gone.
Prayers for his children...I believe the proceeds from the Terrible Towel go to a special education school that one or both of his children attended.
Thank yunz Myron for some great memories n'at!
Yoi and double yoi!

I knew Myron was in failing health, glad he lived to see #5.

I was listening to Myron when Yancey Thigpen dropped the last second pass that would have beaten Brett Favre and the Packers. The emotion was incredible.
RIP Myron Cope.

Ah man. Prayers and condolences for his family. I didn’t think he was doing well. Didn’t he recently have pneumonia?
To: prisoner6
I still have my Terrible Towel that has traveled the world with me since I left Western PA in the mid '80s.
We'll miss you Myron!

It’s the passing of an era. Myron was a true original and a great sportswriter and personality. Hate to see him go - he was also a very decent guy.

R.I.P. Myron.
I like to drive up to Johnstown Pa. from Maryland at least once a year to catch a Stiller game. Usually there’s a guy in the bar that sounds just like Myron.

I heard it first thing this morning from my sister who says the city is in mourning.
Condolences from Connecticut where I now live but Pittsburgh will always be home.
Getting my terrible towel out in tribute!

:( Yes, the sale of terrible towels goes to Allegheny Valley school for the Mentally Disabled.
How sad, I know he wasn’t well for the past few years, but he was an integral part of da burgh.

Spent much of my day listening to the radio, DVE, ESPN 1250, and 104.7 all did smalll tributes all afternoon. Much of my workday was spent choked up.
Thank you Myron, have a shot and a cigar with the Chief and remember the good ol' days.

Condolences to his family. This is truly a sad day. Myron was an original.
Pirates games were never the same after BoB “The Gunner” Prince. I fear Steelers games won’t be the sameanymore, either.

I'm a Reds and a Steelers fan. First, Joe Nuxhall, now Myron Cope gone. Them two described a lot of memorable action for the fans.
RIP, Myron.
