I really enjoyed the leather part.

Not only good and tall, but a real motivator. Probably much to his chagrin.

Light trash talking and bantering back and forth among fans is to be expected. When the other side gets out of hand, you and I will be there to set them straight. Kind of keeps things interesting.

But two weeks is too long between games. Too much media hype. The press turns the whole thing into a big circus.

Kate Beckinsale is so pretty. I saw her on Leno and Letterman in the past weeks. She really is extremely beautiful, funny, and intelligent......... with a real interesting coy "quirkiness" to go along nicely with everything else.

Man, she's so attractive. I never even knew about her until just lately.

The Steelers frenzy is so bad where I work that the internet and email usage of streaming video clips nearly brought our company of 1000+ to it's knees.

LOL

I heard earlier that Groundhog Day turned into a huge Steeler rally with the groundhog eventually taking a leak in a Terrible Towel.

After all this, the Steelers (and esp. Cowher) BETTER win this game, or they will never hear the end of it. ----

****

God, that is SO TRUE! Cowher (and all of we fans) will have a real tough time if this one doesn't turn out correctly.

I'd support polygamy if I could have Beckinsale, Jessica Alba, and Angelina Jolie.

You love beauty, CHECK OUT THIS!

BTW, did you catch Pux Phil this morning?

I think he pooped on a terrible towel!

Nice, but how about a picture in regular clothes, like the girl next door.

She's so pretty doing interviews.

She is really cute in Pearl Harbor (the only good part of that movie).

Y108 was interviewing someone from the 3Kings pub in Kensington, London. It's a Steelers bar. They dress in black & gold and face paint. Ironically it's by Big Ben.

The guy mentioned "the yellow towels the fans bring". Now he knows they're called Terrible Towels.

Guess the Steelers Nation is actually international!

No, I went to see "Intelligent Design" instead.

But seriously, you won't believe this, I haven't been to a movie theatre or rented a movie in about 10 years. But, this young lady is one of a kind.

Back in the mid-70s when I was in HS, in MD, one of my teachers was a rabid Steelers fan. Mr. Kowalczyk would walk around class with a piece of rough lumber the size of a bat. Whenever he needed to get a student's attention or to make a point, he would slam a desktop with the wood. He was quite a character. There was no part of history he couldn't teach without involving the Steelers. We all thought he was crazy, but cool. Now I see that he was just a typical Pittsburgh fan. Go, Steelers!

ROFL ..... yes, you really made me laugh out loud on that one! We are nuts.

Actually, the Panthers aren't my No.1 team. They are No.2. But, either way, I don't have a dog in this fight. Usually though, when my team(s) pack up for the off-season, I find another team, generally in the other conference, to pull for. I just can't get excited about any of these teams this year. Seattle is boring and Pittsburgh reminds me of the Ravens of 2001. Good hard-hitting team and very strong on defense (the Steelers do have a better offense though) but there is no.... there, there. They are almost as boring as the Seahawks and they are working overtime to generate some kind of enthusiasm in both camps.

On the other hand, the commercials are supposed to be pretty good this year!... ;-)

Steelers, publicity seekers dominate Groundhog Day

There were a few boos at the groundhog's prediction of six more weeks of winter, but most of the hundreds of revelers instead turned the event into an impromptu Pittsburgh Steelers rally.

Fans in football jerseys sang "Here we go Steelers," and members of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club's Inner Circle — the top-hat- and tuxedo-wearing businessmen responsible for carrying on the groundhog tradition each year — threw black and gold Steelers "Terrible Towels" as they waited to rouse Phil from his burrow.
