Cowher power invades Sports Illustrated
A few national stories hovering around Super Bowl XL
If you want positive proof that the mainstream national media has always lusted after a Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowl, look no further than Sports Illustrated. The venerable magazine featured the Steelers on its cover for THREE consecutive NFL playoff weeks (January 30, January 23, January 16).
Worse, Jerome Bettis has appeared on two of those three covers. Sorry Steeler suck-ups, but Bettis has been nothing more than a glorified third down back for quite a while now. Hey, I love that his parents have seen all his games, and that he is coming home to Detroit, but come on.
Maybe these are just the sad ramblings of a disconsolate Patriots fan, but if not for Kimo von Oelhoffen
