    After years on the sideline, just reading the posts, I finally decided to join in. Been a Steeler fan since 1965. During the 80s, 90s, and 00s, I lived near Cincinnati and loved to listen to Dave Lapham every Sunday as he trudged silently to the Cinci locker room for another subdued post-game/loss show and the obligatory "maybe next week".

    Quick story from 2005 when the Bengals finally made the playoffs. My daughter was 6, and came home from school on the Thursday before their first playoff game against Pittsburgh. Her principal had announced that all students should wear black and orange to school on Friday. I told her no daughter of mine would so embarrass herself, but she didn't want to get in trouble.

    I should have known to trust her as I raised her properly. The next morning she had on some orange sweat pants....and a black Steelers t-shirt. Dang I love her!!! (she was not the most popular girl come Monday morning but she loved it).
