    Then don't go where ever it is that's taking you from making the next one. Heck, I'm stubborn, I'm hanging around. 2 more years and I'll have 50 years as a ticket holder.

    I do work for the front office. They've just forgotten to send me a paycheck for the last oh, forty-something years.

    I actually applied for a front office job with the Steelers about 40 years ago. Then I went on to my life's work.

    Were you there for the Immaculate Reception? My dad had a rule that if there was still time on the clock we didn't move from our seats. So we stayed. After that, it never crossed my mind to leave early. Very few people were still in the stadium when that catch was made.

    I think Watt is going to hit (pun intended) the ground running and the fans are going to love him. I feel he'll be one of our 1st picks in a long time that is comfortable with the system from day one. I see him wreaking havoc when he goes in and I see it happening quickly.

    Since I'm playing Swami here (LOL), I also see lots of jersey sales.

    I can think of no better compliment to a pass rusher than to be called annoying. He's going to annoy a lot of defenders me thinks .

    Great pickup for us!

    yes. i remember staying until the game was over when we played the patriots, cold as heck, arguably the coldest game ever at 3 rivers. it meant nothing for either team as we were both out of any chance to get to the playoffs. i walked up to get two hot dogs at half time and when i got back they were near frozen. we were a couple of the only people there by the end. i've been sitting in stadium since the preseason of 1970. 46 years jeh. :herewego::smiley1::cool:

    Then I started the same day you did. But that is 47 seasons. This will be our 48th.

    That means all he needs is to get stronger and we have an All-Pro LB for the future. He can maybe even win Defensive Rookie of the Year

    TJ Watt already has a head start among the majority of his 2017 class thanks to the likes of his brother.



    I do imagine he does need to get stronger but he should be good enough for us by mid season.

    ith that thought, Bud was pretty good by mid to late season. By then, James will be needing oxygen.
