‘Twas the night before the Super Bowl, when along the gulf shore,
Steelers fans were praying for “just one more"…

Who’s A.K. Young?

I dig it!!! Although I would change the quote in the second line to, “please, just one more!” because it seems to flow better, IMHO. The rest is great!

sniff May I pass this along?

It’s been emailed and posted all over the place already, why would you have to ask for permission?

5

I don’t know, it came with it on there already and if it is his, I want him to have the credit.

Some of us have trained our email contacts not to forward us crap. That’s what we come to MPSIMS for. :rolleyes:

And “North Shore”, maybe, instead of “gulf shore”, since Heinz Field is on the North Shore.
I also plan not to e-mail this to anyone, merely to post it to other boards.

I think Gulf shore refers to the Gulf coast of Florida, where many Steelers fans live or have migrated for the week. The area near Tampa is specifically referred to as the Gulf Coast, area north of Tampa is called the Nature Coast, etc. I think the tourism boards come up with these names.

The North Shore ain’t in Pennsylvania, babe.

Crap poem.

Actually, it is.

I disagree.

True, ShibbOleth, I guess I’m just a hometown gal at heart.

Oh really?

:dubious:
Here’s a link to said “crap poem”. :rolleyes:

Have the Stealers sent their commission checks to the refs yet? It’s pretty important for them to win this game…

13

I sure hope so, because it will definitely be worth it, if only to hear three more years of ill-informed whining like this!

Sixburgh!

Everyone: Here we go, Steelers, here we go! Pittsburgh is going to the Superbowl.

The greatest thing about the Super Bowl is that, every once in a long, long while, if you’re lucky, you or maybe your great-great-great-grandkids get a 50% chance to find out the answer to the question:

“Just how embarrassing is it to lose the Super Bowl to the Arizona freakin’ Cardinals?”
