Lissa Brennan is co-creator of what she considers "the best Steelers T-shirt ever. EVER!!!"
She and friend Dan Rugh -- owner of CommonWealth Press on the South Side -- have combined the Warhol-esque style of the Obama "Hope" posters with the dashing good looks of Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin into one great T-shirt.
The black shirt, which is hand silk-screened in white and gold ink, features Coach Tomlin's face, complete with his familiar sideline headset, above the phrase, "Yes We Can!"
As the Steelers march toward the playoffs, the president-elect's campaign motto also is a most suitable Steeler Nation battle cry.
"The Obama posters' design is so iconic and immediately recognizable, and I loved them and I also love Mike Tomlin," said Ms. Brennan, 38, of the South Side. "We have the sexiest coach in the NFL. You don't want a shirt with Bill Belichick on it."

ahh cmon at least make it the Bengals
Uh ... Dave?
Eh, I always knew they were a bunch of libs anyhow...
Steelers fans aren’t going to go for that. We already know we can. It’s corny and too political.
Well it’s better than the Detroit Lions motto, “No, Don’t Even Think About It.”
Ah com’on. There are no Steelers actually involved so far.
“Coach Tomlin had no comment on the T-shirt yesterday, Steelers spokesman Dave Lockett said.”
The old bag doing this is “Ms. Brennan, an actress, director, occasional stagehand and all-round theater-loving gal.”
One more reason to hate the Steelers....(chuckle)
Friggin’ Rooney gave the Obamamessiah a custom made Steeler jersey when he made a campaign stop in the “ Burgh “.
Remember, that’s the football team you hoot and holler for!!!!
Just another reason to hate them more, although I think they will win on Sunday and grab the #1 seed from Tennessee.
Was that Bill’s response to the design???
Wow you really stirred it up..he he....Go Steelers !!!!!!!!!
Rush, please do comment on this horrific situation involving your favorite football team, please????
With Hayneworth out there’s a good shot. The D-line will suffer dramatically without him.
Exactly. No Haynesworth is a huge loss for the Titans.
And Kerry Collins is not playing particularily well right now. If the have any chance to win, Smash and Flash better come up big.
And last time I checked, not too many teams run well on the Stillers......
From what I understand, Dan Rooney was, but the other brothers tend Republican in their politics.
thank God. At least most Rooney’s have a brain!!!
Dan is a dope.........
As a Steelers fan . . . I think I just puked in my mouth a little.
