God bless you, good sir.

Holy Cow! Sorry to hear that. Hope you make it through to next season though.

Maybe they needed your mojo yesterday?

If this is truly the last I wish you fair winds and following seas...

I've mentioned before that for the past 4 months I've been living in the Hospice at Fort Meade VA hospital in Sturgis S.D. [E Ward, room 113 is Steeler Country around here].

I'm dying from end stage cardio vascular disease. I won't be around for next season, so I just watched my last Steeler game.

I've been a Steeler fan for exactly 50 years. For 6 months out of every year I have enjoyed the Steelers, even when life was handing me lemons.

I've traveled and lived in different parts of the country, and people would often ask me where i was from, and when I said "The Pittsburgh area", they almost always replied "Steeler fan, eh".
That always made me smile.

And it's great when you are in some city or state wearing your Steeler shirt, and Steeler Nation always gives you a shout out.

I guess I'm done here, and won't be back to this forum.

Where your going is a way better place than this world by far! I don't know you but, God is waiting for you! I'm truly happy that Steeler football gave you so much. It's an escape from everything for a couple of hours. I'll say prayers for you and your family! God Bless!

I haven't been posting much over the past year or so and I did not know this. I'm so sorry to hear. Godspeed and thank you for your service, sir.

You sacrificed a lot for us to sit around on these ole message boards and complain and fight.

We owe you a lot. You're a real hero.
