Hines Ward: Tough Player but Not Bad Guy

Hines Ward is one of my favorite Steelers, if you didn’t know this already, now you do.  Last night’s interview with Bob Costas has created quite a stir not just among those in Steeler Nation, but nearly every football fan out there.  I actually have a little bit different perspective than how it seems everyone [...]

Steelers lose to Ravens in OT, but now in “Attack Mode!”

Last night made me feel a little like a proud mama.  I remember watching tape of Dixon from college and seeing him scramble and run outside the pocket, but in reality, I am not sure what I expected last night.  Maybe it wasn’t a win, but there were a lot of good things about that [...]

Hines Ward: Football Player or Dirty Player?

Or is it just that the rest of the league is made up of a bunch of non-football playing pansies?
According to Sports Illustrated, Hines was voted dirtiest player by his peers.
Peers being operative word here.
This is football boys&girls.  If I didn’t want to see hard hits, I would watch basketball every day. (Sorry Vice Chairman) [...]

Best Football Sunday Ever? (Definitely Close)

The life of a blogger is tough, especially when it’s not your “day” job.  I know I am late on this post, but apparently, so do the other readers of my blog (my dad) based on emails I have received.  You will have to forgive me, but a girl (even a SteelerGurl) has got to [...]

Steelers Beat the Browns…Again

In a week filled with upsets, it felt a little better to be a Steelers fan, even if they played the Browns.  In fact, it was Pittsburgh’s 12th straight win against the Browns.  What was once a fierce rivalry is little more than a Sunday get together these days.  Despite the offense starting a little [...]

A Check in the W Column And That’s About It

I asked for BOOM! But I got mediocrity.  It’s week 5, am I really asking too much?  Week 2 I said I felt like this relationship was one-sided — here I was traveling around to see you, waving my terrible towel, always believing.  I think you hear me, but I can’t be sure.  Even though [...]

NFL 2009 Season Opener – Style Points 0; Win 1

The 2009 NFL season is officially underway.  In front of a record home crowd of 65, 110 all dressed in black and gold, the Steelers narrowly defeated the Titans 13-10 in the opening game of the season.
THAT was ugly  ladies and gentleman.  But I will take the check in the win column and keep on [...]

2009 NFL Kickoff – I’m ready, are you?

The day is almost here.
You know what day….September 10, 2009 – otherwise known as NFL Kickoff Day!
That day we have been anxiously awaiting since February.  Sure, there have been glimmers of fun since Super Bowl Sunday…tweeting the draft and meeting @NFLPRGuy (aka Brian McCarthy) as the NFL finally caught up with the rest of us [...]

The Steelers visit the White House

 

 
(prefacing this post with the fact that I am pissy and had a bad day!)
Wow, what a day, the Steelers visit the White House.  I work a block from the White House and was excited to know that they would be coming to my city today.  Last night, in preparation, I packed my #10 jersey [...]
