“I have spent more than half of my life covering the team. If I don’t write about them, I’m talking about them. It’s what I do,” Dale said at Steelers.com in 2022. “There have been hundreds of victories and losses, many AFC championship games, Super Bowl wins and losses on the road. And thousands of stories. At the end of the day, it is always about the stories.”
Lolley also worked as a filler host during selected transmissions of the Steelers radio network in 2008. For 2014, he was the full -time host of a show and podcast from Monday to Friday.
