Great recap of the 70s Stillers by Post Gazette

A little long, but a good read for true Steelers fans ...

The Steelers dynasty spawned a nation full of fat, ugly Steelers fans that litter the sports bars of this great country.

 

What he said.

 

And add the Cowboys to the list.

 

You want to talk Stillers? Here are the real Stillers:

 

I do want to go on record saying I know a select few Steelers fans who are neither particularly fat nor ugly, or even obnoxious, come to think of it. Then again, I know a select few who are ... oh, nevermind.

 

Clever scouting of the black colleges, and a whole lotta steroids. Piece of cake.

Yeah . . . release the hounds.

 

Such petty jealousy, and all out of Second City sports fans, who know all about being jealous.

How unfortunate that the Bears have never had a run like that.

And Ben_Hecht, do you really think the rest of the NFL was clean in the '70s? You really want to try to make that lead balloon fly?

 

Um...ok. Glad that was preserved for prosperity...I guess

 

Number one on that list is our man Oz.

Then my college roomie, who is a large fella but the furthest thing from obnoxious about his Steelers. In fact, while the rest of us were whooping it up after Vandershank shanked the FG in January 2006, he was at the cashier paying our bill.

But yeah. I can think of some odious Steelers fans.

 

And of course, the Steelers are the only team with odious fans (good word, BYH).
