If the Steelers win, it will be their 6th Superbowl victory, more than any other team in the NFL's 43 years. I will be waving a terrible towel and wearing black and gold! Gooooo PITTSBURGH!!!

I think you are talking about our PHOENIX CARDINALS! They say it will be qabout 80% Steeler fans to 20% Cardinal fans at the game. So you know what that means - Only 20% of them will be happy at the end of the game! And the terrible towel also doubles as a CRYING TOWEL.

Moderator Art Posted January 29, 2009 Moderator Report Posted January 29, 2009 The Dormont/Mt.Lebenon/Glenwood/Hazelwood Steelers will win the Superbowl. I don't know if those neighborhoods even exist anymore, so GOOOOOOO Pittsburgh. Art Okay, the economy is in the toilet, and there is a foot of snow on the ground.

Members Casey Jordan Posted January 29, 2009 Members Report Posted January 29, 2009 Good question Denise. Here's a true story that relates and is worth the read. KURTIS THE STOCK BOY AND BRENDA THE CHECKOUT GIRL In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was busily working when a new voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carry out at register 4. Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get some fresh air, and decided to answer the call. As he approached the check-out stand a distant smile caught his eye, the new check-out girl was beautiful. She was an older woman (maybe 26, and he was only 22) and he fell in love. Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch clock to find out her name. She came into the break room, smiled softly at him, took her card and punched out, then left. He looked at her card, BRENDA. He walked out only to see her start walking up the road. Next day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her a ride home. He looked harmless enough, and she accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She simply said it wasn't possible. He pressed and she explained she had two children and she couldn't afford a baby-sitter, so he offered to pay for the baby-sitter. Reluctantly she accepted his offer for a date for the following Saturday. That Saturday night he arrived at her door only to have her tell him that she was unable to go with him. The baby-sitter had called and canceled. To which Kurtis simply said, "Well, let's take the kids with us." She tried to explain that taking the children was not an option, but again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally Brenda, brought him inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter who was just as cute as a bug, Kurtis thought, then Brenda brought out her son, in a wheelchair. He was born a paraplegic with Down Syndrome. Kurtis asked Brenda, "I still don't understand why the kids can't come with us?" Brenda was amazed. Most men would run away from a woman with two kids, especially if one had disabilities - just like her first husband and father of her children had done. Kurtis was not ordinary - - - he had a different mindset. That evening Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids, went to dinner and the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take care of him. When he needed to use the restroom, he picked him up out of his wheelchair, took him and brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At the end of the evening, Brenda knew this was the man she was going to marry and spend the rest of her life with. A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted both of her children. Since then they have added two more kids. So what happened to Kurtis the stock boy and Brenda the check-out girl? Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in Arizona , where he is currently employed as the quarterback of the National Football League Arizona Cardinals and has his Cardinals in the hunt for a possible appearance in the Super Bowl. Is this a surprise ending or could you have guessed that he was not an ordinary person. It should be noted that he also quarterbacked the Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI. He has also been the NLF's Most Valuable Player twice and the Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player. Go Arizona Cardianals!

Moderator Art Posted January 29, 2009 Moderator Report Posted January 29, 2009 Hi Denise, In the last 40 years of Superbowls, I can only think of maybe 2 or 3 times they have held it anywhere North of Georgia, gone are the days of Packers vs. Cowboys in -13 degree weather (that was in 1967); G-d help anyone who has a "wardrobe malfunction" in that kind of weather.

You call yourself a fan ,yet you said "if" they win. A true fan would have said "after" or "when". Of course not being a fan of football I really could care less. However since my mother is pulling for the Steelers , I for her sake hope they win, since her Bengals did not get arrested enough this year to make the playoffs.
