... Before kickoff my dad told me to pick a team, I said "I'll take those guys in black & yellow." And the rest is history. They won that game, they won the next year (Super Bowl 14) and, well, 26 years later, they won again! It was tough growing up a Steelers fan in New Jersey in the 80's. All my friends jumped shipped on who they rooted for: The Raiders, Redskins, Dolphins, 49'ers,...

3] Try not to play the ‘what if’ game with drafting. I have read a recent article or two on this topic. Some fan whining ‘we could have had X in round 2, Y in round 3, etc. Frankly, you can rip any team’s draft with that garbage level of analysis. I didn’t like Todd Blackledge when we drafted him.

... (and much needed, to be sure), but this ain't the 1982 team we're dealing with here. There's no Todd Blackledge, there's no Curt Warner, and there's no offensive line. I'm not sure what Penn State can even do with the offense. The Wisniewski move to center is looking like a major gaffe (just look at the 3:30 point of the video for about three straight plays of FAIL) and overreaction...
