New Member - Old Fan

Good morning all. I am new this morning but I hope to contribute to the forum. I grew up with the Steel Curtain teams and My Uncle played 12 years for the Steelers....so it is in the blood!

 

Welcome. I'll bite, who's your uncle?

 

Welcome!

 

Must be .....................

 

Welcome. We'd still love to know who your uncle is.

 

Welcome. I'm going to guess Jack Ham as your uncle.

 

Ok, if we're having a guessing game, I'll go with Robin Cole.

 

This is reminiscent of Pimply Dan - one provocative captivating post......then crickets. Will we still be guessing 10 years from now? I'm sure some statistician could whittle it down by determining how many players remained Steelers for the specified number of years.

 

Welcome

 

I went with the "ovic" & looked for a 12 year Slavic.

 

Welcome to the board

 

Welcome....Go Steelers, Beat the Ravens, yea who's your Uncle?!

 

Are you from Castle Shannon, I have a friend on another Steelers site that lives there?

 

Well all, My uncle was George Tarasovic. He was 2nd team all PRO the year I was born. He passed on a year ago.
So anyway, I am a life long Steeler fan looking forward to tomorrow.

 

No I am here and looking forward to tomorrow's game vs Ravens. I was so busy this week and not online much. Sorry to be a Pimply Dan.

 

Don't EVER be sorry to be a Pimply Dan. The man's a legend!

 

Don't feel bad I'm a Scottish hillbilly.

Scotch hillbillies are the best! Direct and passionate....and they duel in a minute....and are polite even when kicking the other's butt.

 

understood. I have much to learn here.

 

welcome Tarasovic! Your uncle had some great football cards back in the 1950's. Been a fan since 1972 myself.

 

Yes I am . Left a million years ago back before the Dynasty. My Dad had season tickets from 1946 till 65 when we moved to Cali near Pasadena.

 

You've been here long enough to know to not call it "Cali"

 

Yeah I know. Sorry about that slang. But I'm also the one who calls Pittsburgh "Pgh". So there's that. However, it will always be just "Frisco" to me and will never use the term "the OC".

 

Frisco doesn’t bug me but, when people call it Dago instead of San Diego.......... My town is regularly referred to as “Klantee” or “Santucky”

 

Did not know that about your hometown and I've even stayed at the local Best Western a few times in the past. BTW, the smoke has finally cleared the valley floor a week ago and has been amazingly beautiful with Fall foliage in full action, one of the things that attracted me to this area since the Joshuas in the HD don't change colors much. LOL.
