I went to college in central Ohio in the mid to late 70's. Lotsa Cleveland fans, lotsa Steelers fans. Here I was a Baltimore boy suffering through the lean last years of their tenure in B'more.
What really killed me was the 79 World Series. Ouch.

Yeah, that must've hurt. You guys were up 3 games to 1. I'll never forget Willie Stargell leading us back to victory in that 7th game. I was 12 years old. I really miss Pops! He was a great man. The 70's was a heck of a decade for us Berg fans. It started off great with the 71 World Series, then turned pretty bad losing Roberto Clemente, but Arriba Man wouldn't have been proud of us! 4 Steeler Superbowls sandiwched between two Pirate World Series wins. Go Berg!
