Should be cool

I was 9 years old at a birthday party in Miami. Needless to say I was the only Steelers fan there. Growing up I always knew they would win the Super Bowl if they made it. There was hope even with the 1976 team, but was not upset when they didn't make it because they were coming off back-to-back wins.

Also this year is the ten year anniversary of the first 15-1 Steelers team. They didn't win the super Bowl, but 15-1 is still freaking awesome.

Especially with a rookie QB...It was a special year and it was a big surprise, since the steelers were 6-10 in 2003

The lost against the patriots hurts, but at least the Steelers have won the Super Bowl the year after

Will they be wearing the bumblebee uniforms that week too?
