1. I don’t want to point out anything about how the Buccos are playing to start the season. I don’t want to add links to statistics or analyses. I just want to knock on wood and cross my fingers, toes, arms, legs, and eyes.
2. Is anyone else puzzled by the constant profiles of the guy [...]
Travelogue: Excuse me, senor, but there’s a papa in my arroz

Dorothee Trois-Rivières. Motto: Trying out restaurants so you don’t have to.
We kept seeing signs advertising Emiliano’s in McIntyre Square in McCandless, and we figured that now was as good a time as any to be disappointed with Mexican food in Pittsburgh. That’s definitely one area in which Texas has us beat, and if you’re ever [...]

Jim Wexell is a freelance writer who has covered the Steelers for ages, and now publishes SteelCityInsider.com. And he’s had an experience that inspires one specific emotion in Steeler fans.
Envy.
Deep, profound, unadulterated envy for Wex’s journey across the country for the Steelers’ entire road schedule in 2007, going to Steeler bars all over America, tailgating, attending [...]

From Hryck.’s flickr photos:
Must… stop… crying… about… sports.
Also, I wonder if that guy with the aluminum foil Lombardi Trophy is going to get a nasty-gram from the NFL? Don’t get all evil-empire on us, NFL. The Terrible Towel’s trademark isn’t held by the National Football League, and it’s made in Steeler colors – does it [...]

Most of everything that needs to be said about Super Bowl XLIII has already been said, by people who write a lot better than I do. I recommend Peter King’s analysis here at SI, which – dare I say? – lovingly profiles the Steelers and their brotherhood and what they mean to each other and [...]
Superstitious

So, I have to work today. So, here I am. Working so hard.
Also, why are sports fans so superstitious? And by that I mean, why am I so superstitious? It took me twice as long to get ready for work today, even though I dressed in jeans and a Steelers t-shirt because everything was a [...]
Who IS this guy??

So, obviously, I haven’t been in on this Pittsburgh new media thing long enough, because R2P only just brought to my attention the rantings of disgruntled boomerang journalist Bill Steigerwald. This guy has about three things to say about his-hometown-and-mine, all nasty, and repeated again and again with only minimal change in syntax such that [...]
