It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor, but the Steelers, and their special team, among other culprits, decided to run the day for the black and gold faithful. Nonetheless, it was a perfect day for a game and the scene was predictably jovial outside of Heinz Field. At least before kickoff ... It's always Steelers

Aside from having to deal with the typical security rigamarole at Heinz Field, you'll want to get to your seats early for a bunch of pregame things that the team has planned for Sunday's fray with the Bengals ...

The PG's business and booze writer, the inimitable Bill Toland, passes along an item about a youngster in Hamilton, Ohio, who was suspended from school for having a Cincinnati Bengals 'Who Dey' inspired hairstyle . Turns out, this guy was his principal ...

Last batch of pics from the excursion to Canton. If you missed it, check out Part One and Part Two (all the Steelers stuff). And don't you forget it! Repping South Oakland in the Hall. Beaver Falls/Broadway Joe, and his bionic knee brace. East Brady's Jim Kelly and his Houston Gamblers/USFL jersey. There was a Brady/Bills jersey on display but

Following up on yesterday's post on my trip to Canton, here are a bunch of photos of Steeler-related stuff in the Hall.
