I think switching over to be a Giants fan is much more beneficial for you. I have about 100 reasons, but since I don't have the time, I'll just mention five:
1. Eli Manning
Recall how Eli refused to play for the Chargers. He has since won two Super Bowls. You just know Spanos hates him.
2. History
Since 1986, the dawn of the modern era in the NFL, the Giants have won four Super Bowls to the Steelers two.
3. Legendary Coaches
Vince Lombardi, Tom Landry, Bill Belichick-- all iconic NYG coaches whom I believe went on to coach elsewhere as well.
4. Pronounceable Names that Fit on Jerseys
Say Manning, Beckham, Cruz. They just roll off your tongue. They fit on jerseys. Now try saying Roethlisberger, Matakevich, Villaneuva. See what I mean? And unless you are size XXXL, no way those names will fit across your back.
5. Availability of Sports Gear
To scientifically test this theory, I randomly visited 10 sports stores here in CT. All of them had a wide variety of NYG gear, but very few Pittsburgh items. The numbers don't lie.
