Patch Picks: The Top 5 Reasons to Root for the Steelers

Plus a BONUS list -- The top 5 reasons to root against the Packers!

 

Top 5 Reasons to Root for the Steelers:

  1. Because it will kill Cowboys fans (and Roger Staubach having to present the trophy) for the Steelers to win in Dallas!
  2. You have to root for a team that has a guy whose hair is insured for $1,000,000.00
  3. At least the Lombardi trophy will be in Pennsylvania.
  4. Football is not supposed to be pretty, and the Steelers aren’t pretty.
  5. Maybe it will help all their older fans get over reminiscing about the '70s and join the present time.

*Bonus Reason: During WWII the Steelers and Eagles merged into one team, the Steagles, due to a shortage of available men to play. So, in an alternate universe, rooting for the Steelers is really like rooting for the Eagles.

Top 5 Reasons to Root Against the Packers:

  1. Nobody looks good with cheese on their head.
  2. They eliminated the Eagles.
  3. If they win, Brett Favre might let his ego drive him back out of retirement...again.
  4. The walls behind the end zones in Cowboys Stadium are too high to do the Lambeau leap.
  5. No place should call themselves “Titletown” when they don’t have a baseball, basketball or hockey team.
