Providing Steelers fans in Minnesota with a spot on the world wide web where those of us not living in the 'Burgh can contact each other, keep up on news, and exchange ideas about the team.
The Steelers held a contest for people to make a 15-second video showing what great Steelers fans they are. Each of the 10 winners are having their picture featured on one of this coming season’s home tickets. It should come as no surprise that someone one of our own SFOM was one of the winners. Mark & Corey Christofel were in the video & Corey’s significant other, Leah did the 'artwork' (you’ll understand when you see the video). Their picture will be on the tickets for the Browns game on 12/30.
Very bizarre schedule with 5 night games and 5 games at 3 PM. Add to that the fact that we play the Ravens twice in 14 days and finish with 5 of the last 7 in the division and things are sure to get interesting late in the season in the AFC North.

The 2011 season and 5 year cumulative numbers Glenn has provided in his season wrap-up message speak for themselves. We, the Steelers fans of Minnesota, have come a long way since our first gathering at the Starting Gate in 1991 and we have so much for which we can be so very proud. First and foremost we cheer for a franchise that is among the "winningest" (if such a word exists) since free agency was instituted back in 1992, a team that almost always drafts at or near the bottom of each round and still maintains a winning tradition.
Well…another NFL season has come to a close and ironically the last team to make it into the playoffs was also the on hoisting the trophy in Indianapolis. With 5 of the last 7 champions coming out of Wildcard Weekend, it just goes to show once again that it is more important to be playing the best football in Jan & Feb than it is to be the top team throughout the entire season.
