Even though he never quite lived up to my personal view of a head coach, I've been happy and grateful to have coach Cowher. Of course, with Chuck Noll winning 4 Superbowls, Cowher would always be "less" unless he matched that mark. Not likely.

I also have a great appreciation for the Rooney family. I'm from Pittsburgh myself, and their family reminds me of my own family. They remind me of my parents and my 12 aunts and uncles, most of whom are alas, gone now..... I truly appreciate having an ownership that believes in family tradition and standing behind your people through thick and thin.

About a year ago in the Akron Beacon-Journal there was a column about why the Browns well, suck, and the gist of it was that the Cleveland mgmt lacks the Rooney attitude, that the Steeler organization is a family business that makes good, non-hasty decisions, builds loyal relationships and treats their employees to that end. It was a pretty scathing indictment against the Browns and written in Cleveland - the columnist probably got fired. :)
