    Our Father who art in Pittsburgh
    Football be thy game
    let Mendenhall run
    6 Superbowls won
    on earth as it is in Heinz Field
    give us this day a Superbowl victory
    and forgive us our penalties
    As we defeat those Packers,who play against us
    but lead us into victory
    and deliver us to 7th Heaven
    for thine is the D-LINE,The Polamalu and The Harrison
    A-BEN!!!

    As much as I want the Steelers to lose because I don't want Rapistburger to have the same SB wins as Brady, my grandfather is a Steelers fan. So even if they do win, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

    Where the Steerler's logo came from

    "Two years ago, we named the Pittsburgh Steelers helmet, with its unique one-sided logo and understated traditionalism, as the "coolest in NFL history." What's the story behind the logo? When Pittsburgh's NFL team changed its name from the Pirates to the Steelers prior to the 1940 season, there were no logos on player's helmets. It wasn't until the 1950s that designs on the sides of helmets became popular. Like much of the league, the Steelers' first design was to simply add a player's number to one side of their gold helmet.

    In 1962, the Cleveland Steel Company suggested that the Pittsburgh Steelers adapt the same logo that U.S. Steel had designed for the American Iron and Steel Institute. The steelmark logo has been created to market steel to consumers and was the centerpiece of a large advertising campaigns throughout the 1950s and beyond. U.S. Steel said "steel lightens your work, brightens your leisure and widens your world," hence the three, multi-colored hypocycloids on the logo.

    (Later on, some marketing folks decided to assign new meanings to the three diamonds. Each was supposed to represent the three materials used to produce steel -- yellow for coal, orange for ore and blue for steel scrap.) 
    Before the Steelers were able to gain permission to use the logo, the team had to gain permission to change the word "Steel" to "Steelers." Initially, the team put the logo on one side of its gold helmets in order to test out the look for the year. When the '62 Steelers finished 9-5, the team decided to keep the one-sided logo and switch the helmet from gold to black (so it would stand out more). Almost 50 years later, the logo hasn't been changed."

    Books A Million is promoting gambling. They told me to choose the winning team, and if I guessed correctly, I get $5 off my next purchase. =P

    Of course, that's free gambling. I spent $30 on two squares on two football boards again this time. I got a 9 and 7 on one, and a 7 and 4 on the other. Maybe I'll win something.

    Larry Fitzgerald wants the Cardinals to get Kevin Kolb.

    Citing league sources, ESPN.com is reporting that the Arizona Cardinals have asked Fitzgerald, their perennial Pro Bowl receiver, which quarterback they should attempt to acquire this offseason.

    Fitzgerald’s first choice was none other than Kevin Kolb, who, assuming the Eagles retain Michael Vick, would enter next season as the Birds’ backup yet again.

    The Eagles are expected to place the franchise tag on Vick.

    The 36th overall pick in the 2007 draft, the 26-year-old Kolb has started only seven games in his career and played 19 overall. He opened last season as the starter but lost the job after being knocked out of the opener against the Packers.

    After reaching the Super Bowl two years ago and going 10-6 last season, the Cardinals plummeted to 5-11 this season, their first since Kurt Warner retired. Derek Anderson, John Skelton and Max Hall started nine, four and three games, respectively, and combined to throw 10 touchdowns and 18 interceptions.

    Fitzgerald had 90 receptions for 1,137 yards and six touchdowns this season -- but is scheduled to become free agent after next season (assuming there is one). If he suffers through another season with rotating QBs, it could be his last in Arizona.

    Fitzgerald also mentioned Ravens veteran Marc Bulger, but Kolb obviously would be a better long-term option. Bulger turns 34 in April.
