I have no idea what Dale looks like, but I'm sure a cheerleader outfit (especially NFL type) would not be pretty  :o

No matter, I'm glad to hear things are better.....I mean "great"

Since the Steeler's don't have cheerleaders, it would be a one man show, so Dale would have the option to wear whatever he chose to wear. My guess, it would be a football uniform with the "BUS's" number.

Dale is their #1 fan and I'm sure he would be ultra happy just standing on the sidelines of the Super Bowl, don't you?

Hey guys. I started this thread when I was so pissed off the other night and I went on with one of my normal nights of ranting. I took a step back and changed the whole thread. I figured I would just change to everything is great. I never expected any response at all. Things may be great though if Wayne Homes gives me a call. I did apply over the internet a couple days ago for a construction management job they are offering. I have wanted to get with this company for a couple years. I hope they give me a call. It really would be a good fit for them and I. Please keep your fingers and toes crossed that they give me a call. ;D Dale

Ah Jack Lambert hey? Not bad but, I believe I can do one better. ;) I have an "old school" Rocky Bleier #20. Bleier was drafted into the military after his rookie year with the Steelers. While in Nam, his patrol was ambushed in a rice paddy and Rocky was severely hit in his left thigh, but while he was down, a grenade landed next to him and filled his right leg with shrapnel. The doctors told him he would never play football again. Boy, were they wrong.

Not only did Bleier go on to be one of the best blocking backs in the league behind Franco Harris, he played in all of the first four Steeler's Super Bowl victories. He also caught the touchdown pass from Bradshaw in Super Bowl XIII that gave the Steelers the lead they would never surrender.

I liked Jack Lambert, but I always had a special place in my heart for Rocky Bleier because of the struggle that he endured and also because he was from Wisconsin.
