Laying out what’s on my mind because telepathy is unavailable

If Dan Rooney endorses you for anything, I will vote for you.

with one comment

Dan Rooney just endorsed Barack Obama for president.

I didn’t really need Mr. Rooney’s word–I already voted for him in March to be the Democratic candidate–but if I hadn’t done so, that would have swayed me.

Dan Rooney is a legend. His family is arguably the best and classiest group of owners of a football team in the NFL, namely the Pittsburgh Steelers. They don’t make bad decisions. They’ve had three coaches in the past 49 years. The Browns, I think, have had 57 coaches in that span of time.

Top that off with Franco Harris and Jerome Bettis endorsing Obama and the position is closed–at least it should be in Pittsburgh. We’ll see how Obama does in PA. Fat lot of good my vote did for him in Ohio, but at least I got to be part of the process this time around.

I do NOT like the looks of this at all…

The Steelers are playing the Dolphins tonight on Monday Night Football.

Pittsburgh is 7-3, though their defense and special teams have played poorly in their past two games against Cleveland and the Jets.  Miami is itching for a win on Monday night and Pittsburgh knows it.  Now, I shouldn’t be too worried, because Pittsburgh always, well almost always, does well on Monday nights.  Their last endeavor agains the Ravens earlier this month was a 38-7 beatdown on a proud Ravens’ team.  Still, at 0-10, anything goes for the Dolphins.  If speedy Ted Ginn, Jr., gets his hands on the ball for kickoff or punt returns, God help the Steelers.  It could be a long night.
