NBC: Hard-nosed Steelers are real America's team

As Myron would say: "I love it, I love it!!!!"

Act of Rod Makes The Hall

Rod Woodson became the 20th Steeler to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame this afternoon.

Think of that? 20 Steeler Hall of Famers - the vast majority coming since 1970. Amazing.

Dermontti Dawson didn't get in despite a deserving career.

Still Rod is in and despite him winning a Super Bowl ring with the Balt Bridies and having played with the Raiders and Niners, he will go down as a Steeler. In an interview this week, he mentioned his 'Act of Rod' hit on Lorenzo White of the Oilers in a wild card playoff game on New Years Eve 1989 that caused a fumble and led to a game winning Gary Anderson field goal as his most memorable. It was a great play but the list of great plays by Woodson is long and that's why he is in the HOF. He was a game changer and the key of the Blitzburgh defense.

Congrats to Rod and here's hoping the good news for the black and gold continues all weekend.

HERE WE GO!!!
