Another article on the Steelers, more inaccuracies
You may not be able to read this article from Time because it may be available to subscribers only, but I will excerpt some of the important parts for you here.
This is for Meggie:
But most Monday nights he and a few friends hold court at Jack's, a dive on the city's South Side, where a bottle of Iron City costs two bucks. Jack's is the kind of place where former steelworkers drink and tip as if they were still making $20 an hour. "Roethlisberger's entourage is not a bunch of hot chicks," says Jack's co-manager Scott McGrath. "It's usually about four guys, big guys. Bodyguard-type guys."
I know you know where this is, Spammie. In case the article causes him to vacate Jack's, try Inn'termission, if it is still there. Funny, I would have figured him a Gooski's or Chiodo's type of guy. He probably does Sharkie's during training camp.
This is what I am talking about:
Despite injuries to several top players, Pittsburgh, at 14-1, entered the last weekend of the regular season with the best record in the NFL. Assured of home-field advantage throughout the AFC play-offs, the Steelers have their best shot at a Super Bowl title since the Steel Curtain era of the '70s.
Okay, now this is funny, not funny haha but funny ugh. This same article also pointed out that in 13 seasons, Cowher has taken the Steelers to the playoffs nine times. Additionally, they have made it to the AFC championship game as recently as 2001. Why does the national press keep talking about the Steelers as if they have been bums for the past 25 years?
