The Top 10 Worst NFL Team Relocations
08/01/2009
I was born in Sewickley, PA in 1986 and lived around the area my whole life which would explain my love for Pittsburgh and it's sports. I'm a marketing major at Kent State University and am involved in a number of activities. My favorite teams are as followed.
NFL - Pittsburgh Steelers
MLB - Pittsburgh Pirates
NHL - Pittsburgh Penguins
NBA - Cleveland Cavaliers (friends insisted)
NCAAF - Penn State Nittany Lions
NCAAB - Pitt Panthers
Since coming to college I can say that I've only become a stronger fan. I just wish I could see a few more of my favorite teams' games but home isn't too far away.
Let me know what you think about my views....If you agree with me -GREAT, if you disagree with me -Even Better! I LOVE rivalries so bring it on, Yeeeeaaa!
Why the 2005 Steelers are my all time favorite team, and always will be!

Hey Derek! Thanks for becoming a fan, man, I appreciate that and I look forward to reading more of your articles here on B/R. I am a fan of the Steelers and a good friend of mine has some fam from around your way in Sewickley.
As for my Braves, well, they continue to break my heart now--if that's any consolation to you at all =8).

As everyone else is, I am applying for the CBSSport job for the Steelers. I wrote an article about how I grew up a Steeler fan.
If you could, take a look and feel free to comment if you would like.
Thanks,
Nick

Hey Derek,
Lou Gehrig has somehow been forgotten amongst the game’s immortals, even though he was possibly even more of a reason for the success of Ruth’s 1927 Yankees. Read about the quiet, forgotten leader of “Murderer’s Row,” Henry Lou Gehrig.

Thanks in advance!

I don't see why a winning record isn't at least attainable. Paul Maholm has me believing, and it looks like Duke is back in form. Can't argue with some of the names in their pen and if they get decent pitching from the rest, they could do it. I'm a big believer in pitcher and they seem to have enough.. Or at least more than Milwaukee and Houston.

I am surprised by the number of people who actually want to reserve the right to bad-mouth their teams! I offer constructive criticism, of course, but one in particular wants to be able to say, "they suck," if they do.
I don't get it. Will YOU take the pledge?

Ah yes.. Just moved to Kent last summer, sort of getting familiar with the area as a whole, last year all I knew was inside the Akron campus.
Anyway, I know what it's like to be a Steeler fan up here. In Youngstown, it was a little more acceptable, up here it's pretty brutal. I've kind of been low-key on the Michigan thing the past few years, mainly because of how awful, but I'm sure you know what it's like to be a fan of an OSU rival up here.
Anyway welcome to the site man, thanks for the message. If you ever have a question let me know.
