HERE WE GO, STEELERS, HERE WE GO
PITTSBURGH'S GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!!
An old fight song, to be sure, but one I have scrupulously avoided hearing and singing this year. Until it came true.
We're driving The Bus home to Detroit in two weeks, for his first Super Bowl and possible final NFL appearance.
I know I should have been blogging all of this all along, but I'm way too superstitious for that. I was so afraid that anything I did differently would affect the fragile playoff karma!
Seriously, though -- I have never seen a more dominating playoff performance than the one the Black and Gold put on the past three weeks. From decisively beating the Bengals, to getting and holding leads against the two best teams in the AFC. We ROCK.
The only thing left to hope for is a very lopsided win in the Seattle/Carolina game, leading that team (which at press time appeared to be Seattle) to be declared the favorite. We've been the underdog all post-season, and I think we feed on that "no one thinks we can win" mentality.
I won't make a prediction (yeah, another one of those superstitions!), but I like our chances. GO STEELERS!!!!!!!
