An odd coincidence, take a break for a min
Edited on Sat Jan-22-11 02:39 AM by hootinholler
The Steelers are playing their 77th season.

Big Ben Roethlesberger wears #7 and is playing his 7th season.

To get here last week they beat the ravens for the 7th time by 7 points.

If they win Sunday it will happen on Myron Cope's Birthday. He coined the Terrible Towel.



If they win Sunday, they will play for their 7th Lombardi Trophy.

Here we go Steel-ers, Here we go!

1. Good on them... I"m ok with the Steelers
though I really don't have a dog in this fight. But, on that subject, I'm just damned grateful that Vick and his team were knocked out of the running.

2. I'm a Steelers fan and another Lombardy Trophy would be icing on the cake ...
still if they lose to the Jets or lose in the Super Bowl, they had another great season.


In the NFL's "modern era" (since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970) the Steelers have posted the best record in the league. The franchise has won the most total games, won the most divisional titles, earned the best winning percentage (including every expansion team), earned the most All-Pro nominations, and have accumulated the most Super Bowl wins (six) since the modern game started in 1970. It is 2nd overall in playoff wins and tied with the Miami Dolphins for most regular-season wins.

6. I've been a Steeler fan for many many years. Only had the chance
to go to one live game when I lived in Pgh, and it's the best memory I have! Good luck to them this weekend & I hope to see them in the SB! I have to say though, todays team doesn't hold a candle to Bradshaw, Stalwart & Swan of years gone by. I've spent many a mondays with laryngitis after a close Sunday game!! Good luck guys. I'll gladly deal with the laryngitis this coming Monday!!!!

3. Just tell all the women in
Dallas to not get caught in a room alone with the Stillers quarterback.

8. Horse poop! Big Ben was at a bar and a young lady wearing a very provactive
pin was there too. WHen you can convince ME that attractive young ladies wouldn't express interest in a popular, wealthy & attractive young guy would just say no, I'll give your comment some credibility. I'm old now, but I haven't forgotten what life was like when I was young, and I sure would have been excited if Ben would have been attracted to ME!
