As you know, I was in Pittsburgh this weekend, and got home as the Steelers were winning Super Bowl XL. Over there, you'd think "Happy days are here again!"
Getting back home to the Cincinnati area, you'd think that the populous was generally liberal, and either Al Gore, John Kerry, or Hillary Clinton had just barely lost the Presidential election. BUT knowing that the region had helped elect George W. Bush twice, people are still pissed. They still can't stand the fact that the Steelers are Super Bowl champions, and lost in four quarters in the wild card game. The Bengals could have been leading at halftime, and had Jon Kitna not spent his time mourning Carson's injury, they could have won, and had a chance at the Colts and/or Broncos.
One one coaster site I frequent a lot, its moderator said that "the only good to ever come out of Pittsburgh was Kennywood."
Well, if not Mario Lemieux (though born a French-Canadian), or Dan Marino, how about Marvin Lewis?
Now the orange and black Kool-Aid drinkers are upset that Bill Cowher was doing the "Who Dey" chant at the rally in downtown Pittsburgh yesterday. Only could one team start a dumb-ass rhetorical question for their slogan.
Some hints for Bengals , Cincinnati and their fans:
1) Who-Dey? Dead-ay.
2) Beat the Steelers when it counts, especially before four quarters are over.
3) Win some Super Bowls. Only five to go!
4) Run some trains in your subway.
