Earlier this week, Steeler Poodle called to mind the iconic image of Steelers fandom: the morbidly obese Steelers fan, AKA Fat Steeler Chick.  It encapsulates much of what is to be hated and loved about the mighty braying Steelers Republic: we can express our repulsion at this unsightly breeding ground for diabetes — especially since she seems to have a tongue stud and a wedding ring — or we can celebrate the inherent joy of being a Steelers fan.  Ignorance of ineptitude, it seems, is bliss.  As is a no-holds-barred approach to Primanti’s.

Hello, I’m Dr. Bummer. I’m Doing My Rounds, And, Uh, I’m A Little Behind.

Ever since Drew Carey took over hosting duties, however, there has been a profusion of Browns jerseys adorning audience members.

The obnoxious game show antics advantage has swung decisively in favor of the yinzers.
