  • A short video by NFL Films from 1997 that I thought of ripping and posting in tribute of Myron Cope, the voice of my beloved Steelers for 35 years. We miss you Myron, you stood for everything that's great about Pittsburgh and its people!

    Once in a while I gotta hear Myron Cope Kopelman and so I appreciate whoever uploaded this very much. I got to hear him growing up in Pittsburgh and still to this day he's the most unique color analyst I've heard in any sport. I'm sure there are some out there who are close, I would say the guy from the Washington Capitals has a similar voice but isn't nearly as silly and ridiculous, but Cope was one of a kind. He's really missed and was such a giant part of the Steelers for a long time. Miss you, Myron. Thanks for everything you did for Pittsburgh.

      @@GeekTimeTV Oh yes buddy, but he just retired last year or the year prior so we at least still got Lange on the radio until recently. Cope retired when I was young and has been gone for a long time now so once in a while my nostalgia for him really percolates. I appreciate this being on CZcams. He doesn't get replayed a lot on Pittsburgh radio if ever, I can't remember the last time I heard some clips of his.

I hope that wherever that next place our souls go to is my father is now enjoying your voice as much as he did while he was alive. I'll see you there eventually myself. Olev v'shalom, Myron...

    Have The Steelers Complete Series on DVD where this segment came from, this is by far one of my favorite segments, save for the segment about the Italian Army. Glad to see it'll always be easy to view.
    Myron Cope was by far one of the greatest sports commentators in history, every sports commentator needs to learn from him. Whether they are in football, hockey or baseball. If I ever become a sports commentator myself which is my dream job, you will bet I'll pay tribute to Cope by shouting Oi and double Oi! Heck I do that at times in life myself so there is some truth from this NFL Films segment that Cope is the most imitated guy in Pittsburgh.

    When Myron put out his book several years ago, I had the chance to meet him at Shults ford in Wexford pa (my dads friend has worked there for decades) he signed my book and we were just sittin there bullshittin and he told me this funny story about a Thursday night game on the road and was saying that during the live broadcast he yelled out "ITS THURSDAY NIGHT AND MILDRED TOOK THE GARBAGE AHHT!" It struck me so funny and sure as hell my mother heard him a few days later on DVE talking about that same thing and he made the DJs at DVE lose their minds! Cope is Pittsburgh!
