I am a boy from the Burg. Wont go back there though as I need more temperate weather but I do love the place. A Steeler fan through and through. Rooted for them in the 60s before they got good. Use to see Jim Brown run through them like they were standing still at the old Pitt stadium. They got Big Daddy lipscomb to shore up their line and he dies on a heroin od.

Nothing better than Dannys Italian Hoagies. Too bad the world hasnt discovered them like they have the Phillys cheese steak.


If you read this guy, Pittsburgh is making a big comeback:

Neil is such a Brit name coupled with your travels in the Gulf, I thought you were a Brit.....although you don't spell Brit.

There is no better NFL owner than the late Art Rooney, the cigar chomping founder of the Steelers. He always had a few cigars in his pocket, and Terry Bradshaw used to grab one.

Art Rooney lived in the same house, stayed humble, went to the same Catholic Church after getting rich. Dan Rooney is like his Dad, stays humble even though he is our ambassador to Ireland.

The Snyders, the Joneses, the Spanoses are not worthy to carry Rooney's boots.
