This is not a football post but does show a Penquins comparison with the Steelers.

1995 Steelers, Super Bowl 30, 16 years to get back to the championship game..... Kick the crap out of Dallas but loose 27-17.

2005 Steelers, Superbowl 40, 10 Years later we finally win the championship again, 26 years after the Superbowl 14 championship. The fact we won Superbowl 40 was amazing since we were not the best team that year. Just the team that WON! If the 2005 Steelers would play the 1995 Steelers, the 1995 Steelers would KILL the 2005 Superbowl 40 champion Steelers.

Three years after Superbowl 40, The 2008 Steelers will be lucky to make the playoffs.

2008 Penquins- Stanley Cup 2008, 16 years to get back to the championship.....

Will the Penquins team make a serious run next year?

History does not favor Pittsburgh Teams.

Now the nightmare of losing a championship.

Anytime you find something on the Steelers five time Superbowl Champs, there is always an asterisk saying we went to Superbowl 30 and lost.

* Steelers made it to the Superbowl XXX in 1995 but lost to the World Champion Dallas Cowboys

I still have not gotten over Superbowl 30 and I will not get over the 2008 Stanley Cup loss.

Like the Superbowl 30 Steelers (who I feel was the BEST out of all six Steeler Superbowl Teams), this Penquin team will disappear into history.

Forever losers in the 2008 championship.

All they will be is an asterisk in the Penquins history.

* Penquins made it to the Stanley Cup Finals but lost to the World Champion Detroit Red Wings in 2008

The Penquins will be remembered as roadkill for the 2008 Detroit Redwings Championship express.

Unless they figure out how to win the championship.

I would think the Penquins have a good chance to make a serious run. The Steelers have a lot slimmer chance to make the playoffs (forget the Superbowl).

I do not even want to discuss the Pirates.

If the Buffalo Bills would have won the four Superbowls in a row (1989-1993) they played in, they would have been the greatest team of all time (at least the 1990s).

But because they lost four superbowls in a row, they are forever doomed to be jokes associated with LOSERS.

REMEMBER, NO ONE remembers the LOSER!
