I would like to read what FWP has to say. Who will introduce him at the ceremony? I am thinking Chin, BB or Ward.

[stillers4me]

For some reason, I don't think Hines will have a problem getting a ticket.

OMG!!!!! OMG!!!! OMG!!!! Already planning the trip... Just talked to my DS in Hawaii - - they will be here the weekend before for my GD's wedding, and my Hawaii gang will probably head to Canton with me after the wedding... I have some things I will want to do in Pittsburgh - - have to make a pilgrimage to North Park, where I grew up... And just soak up some memories.... I will finally be able to take off my "Bus and Burgh for kids" rubber bracelet that I have been wearing for over 10 years - - I will grab an autograph and will retire it.....

As much as I hate pre-season, I would love it if the Steelers played in the HOF game.... That would be awesome... Wow!!!!!

[Lady Steel]

Congratulations to Jerome! I am absolutely thrilled for him.

There is no better nation than Steelers Nation! :tt02:

WTAE ran this tribute video for the Bus right after he retired. I think it's time to post it again.

“My brother has been the biggest Steeler fan in the world since we were kids,’’ Bettis told the Post-Gazette. “All he wanted was for me to play for the Steelers, and when that opportunity came there was nobody happier than my brother.

Kinda surprised he didn't name Cowher as his presenter.

For Amos Zereoue. He also benched Bruener at that same time I believe. That was early 2000s?
