DEAR SANTA

Dear Santa,

I've been a good little black-n-gold fan all year. I do all of my chores, say my prayers, and eat all of my vegetables. Below is my wish list for Christmas. Come through with these wishes and I'll make sure I leave you Eat 'N Park smiley cookies and some Iron City beer this year. Thanks, Santa!

For the Penguins-Please continue to give them young, healthy bodies from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton until the big boys are healed and ready to roll. Also, take extra special care of Sidney Crosby and bring him an MVP trophy. Keep Marc-Andre Fleury's head on straight, especially for a playoff run. And, of course, please bring our Penguins another Stanley Cup trophy.

For the Pirates-Please give them another winning/playoff season. Also, give them a combination of any or all of the following: power hitting rightfielder, power hitting first baseman, a shortstop with a good bat, an innings-eating starting pitcher, some bench players. Keep MVP Andrew McCutchen happy and healthy. Help Pedro Alvarez make contact with the ball more often than not. And, if you're feeling up to it, how about amping up the postseason request and give the Pirates a World Series Championship?

For the Steelers-Please give them a capable coach that knows how to tell time, develop players and distribute timeouts judiciously. Please, please give the Steelers some miracle draft picks or the Fountain of Youth as they'll have to keep their older players for one more year. Please give Coach Tomlin a pair of dancing shoes and Antonio Brown a ruler. Also, please put the "D" back in the defense. While you're at it, I know this will be a tough one, please give the Steelers another Lombardi Trophy.

Peace on Earth and good will toward men.

Thank you, Santa.

Yours in black-n-gold,

Mrs. Black-N-Gold
