MERRY BLACK-N-GOLD CHRISTMAS

     An open letter to Santa from Mrs. Black-N-Gold:

      Dearest Santa,
I have been a very good girl this year and would appreciate the following things, not for me but for my favorite sports teams. Ok, since I bleed Black-N-Gold, the gifts are for me as well. I'll be sure to leave you a Primanti Sammich, an ice cold Iron City and an Eat N' Park Smiley Cookie for your troubles. Oh, and if could have your reindeer leave something special in the stockings of all the Philly Cryer, Baltimoron and St Louie Cardinal fans, that would be really cool, too. Thanks!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Black-N-Gold

For The Pittsburgh Steelers-The defense has worked so hard to improve. Please give them more sacks and turnovers. Please give Coach Tomlin a thesaurus. He "obviously" needs to learn some new words. I know S Troy Polamalu's days are numbered. I also know that he is the best safety to ever play the game. He is a pillar of the community, too, with all of his philanthropic work. Please, Santa, please help Troy to be Troy one more time. That would be a great gift to all Steelers fans. And, as always, please give them a seventh Super Bowl trophy. Let's Go Steelers!!!!!!

For The Pittsburgh Penguins-Please give them good health. A mumps vaccine would be ideal. Please continue to give them the grit and determination that they need to proceed on their path to the playoffs. Give G Marc-Andre Fleury the Vezina Trophy. He deserves it. He's been playing lights-out. And, as always, please give them a fourth Stanley Cup. Let's Go Pens!!!

For The Pittsburgh Pirates-Please give both Pedro Alvarez and his agent a clue. Have them realize that the profitable and prudent thing for Pedro to do this offseason is to suck up his pride and attack the first base position with gusto, regaining his power-stroke in the process. Don't let Pedro sit and pout about the fact that he threw (or overthrew) away his third base job. Help RH AJ Burnett return to his form of 2012-2013. Give AJ the stuff to prove that last season's dreadful 8-18 record with Philly was a phluke. Please give C Francisco Cervelli good health and some of Russell Martin's catching DNA. And, as always, please give them a sixth World Series trophy. Let's Go Bucs!!!!!


Merry Christmas from Mrs. Black-N-Gold and the Big Bossman!
