I don’t usually smoke cigars in my 70s but when I do it’s because my football team wins 4 Super Bowls in 6 years!!!!

With Bradshaw at point, Mean Joe and LC on the boards, Lambert setting “screens” and attacking the ball, Franco would’ve average 50 a game.
The bench would’ve been pretty good too.

The novice football fan actually believed the games started with the opening kickoff.
The hardcore 70s Steelers fan knew the game didn’t start until there was an opponent’s blood on Jack Lambert’s pants.

BOTD in 1952…

Iron Mike Webster

Here’s an all but forgotten Webster story.

In Feb 1988, he stunned Craig Wolfley 🏈🎙🎧🎤 and the Steelers by announcing his retirement only to unretire 2 days later.

⬇️News footage taped by the Webster family. Big thanks to the Son of Iron Garrett webster
