Hey everyone! My name is Brandon and i'm brand new to this Steelers forum, but I'm not new to being a Steelers Fan. I am 23 years old and live near the Saint Vincent College where the Steelers have training camp every year.

I grew up watching the Steelers as a little kid with my dad (we still watch the games together). On the otherhand, i was a big St. Louis Rams fan during the Marshall Faulk era, but we won't talk about that lol. What really made me a Steelers Fan for life was Jerome Bettis. How could you not love that guy! He was a great player and is an even better person. I guess you could say I love watching running backs play. I still have my Jerome Bettis Kids Jersey.

When I was little I played in the Midget football league in the area, and of course I played for the Steelers. We had the Browns, Packers, Colts, Steelers, and Cardinals in the league. I started out as a Packer, but we moved, and I became a Steeler. You guessed it, I played running back for the Packers but then became an offensive and defensive lineman for the Steelers. Our Steelers team went undefeated in my 6th grade year and we only gave up 7 points the entire season.

Every year I go to training camp to try and get autographs of my favorite Steelers. I used to go everyday but its hard to do that now. If you have been there, im sure you have seen me, but obviously, had no clue who I was. It is a very exciting time of the year for me. There is nothing like getting your favorite players autograph in person.

I'm a very big sports memorabilia and sports card collector. I enjoy the hobby so much, I started my own business called Miller's Sports World at 21 years old selling factory sealed boxes of sports cards, memorabilia and a few other things. I won't talk much about that on here. Unless anyone is interested in hearing about it, in that case let me know and I'd be happy to chat with you. I love sports, the Steelers, and the sports hobby so much. I'm just glad I grew up a Steelers Fan and not a Cleveland Browns or a Ravens Fan lol. I know that was a pretty lengthy description of myself and my Steelers pride. So thank you for reading it and I can't wait to contribute to the community!
