The Top 100: NFL’s Greatest Players

by Steelergurl on September 2, 2010

The NFL Network’s The Top 100: NFL’s Greatest Players debuts tomorrow night (Sep 3) at 10pm.  I have it on record that there are just 5 Steelers included in the list – I guessed Terry Bradshaw and Mean Joe Greene which were confirmed, but they wouldn’t tell me the other three….so, who do you think [...]

I Love Ice Cream – Especially This One

by Steelergurl on September 1, 2010

I agree with Turkey Hill and think this is the perfect football snack.  It sounds perfectly yummy – now if only they sold it in Maryland.  Can someone send me some? (pack it in dry ice and it’ll stay cold) Don’t forget to enter to win the ice cream party and season tickets….that’s right, that’s [...]

Field Trip: Steelers go to Canton to Honor LeBeau

August 7, 2010

After many years of waiting, Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this weekend.  And not for his spectacular work for the Steelers, nor his perfection of the zone blitz -  LeBeau will be honored for his outstanding career as a DB with the Detroit Lions from [...]

Steelers Training Camp – Team Building 2010

August 6, 2010

  The thing I like best about August is the beginning of the football season.  This past weekend I made the trek to the metropolis of Latrobe to see the opening day of Steelers Training Camp 2010 – time to put an official end to the off-season.  It’s time to bring everyone to St. Vincent’s [...]

Steelers: The Role of the Safety

July 24, 2010

First, I’d like to welcome one of my favorite players to twitter @Tpolamalu.  Not sure what worldly advice he will impart through that channel, but Steeler Nation is happy to see him there. His first tweet: Not really sure what all that means, but guess we’ll find out.  I’m sure we’ll all follow Troy to [...]

Steelers Defense Wins Games

July 17, 2010

It seems like I have written this post a hundred times over. Clearly, I am not the only one, either since Joe Starkey and I share similar views. We see it every season.  When the defense kicks butt, we win games. When they are weak, we lose games. With everyone focused on analyzing whether or [...]

Book Review – “From Black to Gold: The Pittsburgh Steelers” by Tim Gleason

July 2, 2010

Growing up in Central Pennsylvania, I really never thought about any football team other than the Steelers. Everyone in my family, for the most part, is a Steelers fan.  No one is an Eagles fan, not that there’s anything wrong with that *rolls eyes.* It just wasn’t something you questioned, it just was.  The only [...]

Steelers Offense: Clearly the Underdog in the AFC North

June 26, 2010

At least that’s what the Bengals and Ravens fans want you to believe. They have a point – Cedric Benson is a great back and Ray Rice really came into his own last year.  But I think we haven’t even seen what Mendenhall has to offer yet.  I agree that he’s not as versatile, from [...]

Steelers Defense Will Be Top 5 in NFL This Year

June 20, 2010

I know that’s a bold statement coming from a team that finished 9-7 and didn’t make playoffs. Still, my advice to all Steelers opponents this season: Don’t sleep on the Steelers defense. And I say that not just because Troy is healthy, but also because Aaron Smith is back and healthy after missing 11 games [...]
