[Shane Falco]

Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play?

Nice!!!!!!!

 

[Steelerfreak]

How about the 1st MLK day?

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

must have been his drunken birthday celebration

 

[Steelerfan]

Hopefully we will have an answer after he sleeps off this bender.

Not sure if perhaps you meant "39" years ago today? On Jan 18th 1976, the Steelers beat the Cowboys in Superbowl X in their first of two consecutive win SBs.

Umm. We won SB 9&10.. so that wasn't the first of two consecutive

Umm. We won SB 9&10.. so that wasn't the first of two consecutive

yea, thought of that after i posted it. dammit, Gareth's logged on now.....wish he'd just clear the air for goodness sakes

 

[Superman]

knowing Gareth, it was the first time he had group sex with Thai tranny hookers and snorted coke off their manly taints.

 

[Steelerfan]

Gareth, wake the **** up. It's going on 4:00pm here on the east coast. Get your *** in gear and finish your thought.

 

[Max Power]

Umm. We won SB 9&10.. so that wasn't the first of two consecutive

That be correct. The thread should have began on Jan 12 with a better link.

 

[Crimsonsteel]

Well it sure wasn't from the draft class that year. We think our guru's in the war room suck now, look at this mess in '85.

Ha! Gregg Carr and his son took guitar lessons from me. Nice guys despite being Aubs. Taught Kevin Greene too.

 

[Drink IRON City]

So, the mystery continues......................




Salute the nation

 

[steelerscotty]

Is Gareth real or did you bozos just make him up like Capt. Tuttle on M*A*S*H*?

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

ok gareth,, time to finish this.. we wont go away like Goodell with spygate.

 

[Gareth]

OK, CSI drunk post....

In attempting to recreate whatever the hell I was thinking...

First, it should have been 39 years..

And, I'm pretty sure I was musing the second win cemented idea that the Steelers were winners and going to be around for a while.

Or something.

**** if I know.

How's that for clarification.

 

[Steelerfan]

Glad you could re-join the land of the sober. I still don't know what the hell you meant, but thanks for the explanation anyway, I think.
