Merry Christmas to all the members of the Behind the Steel Curtain community: the best Steelers fans anywhere on the internet.
Christmas for me as a kid meant a 2.5 hour drive from Erie, PA along snow-lined
roads down I-79 to the southern suburbs of Pittsburgh. Those trips felt magical, knowing that bustling homes were filled with relatives. Every stop was a chance to pile a plate high with pierogis, ham, and, of course, homemade cookies. Santa also sprinkled a small gift for us at every home.
Thank you to everyone who continues to make this site the best place on the internet for Steelers fans: the staff who dive deep for football analysis, amateur football scholars pointing out small details live, fans passionately pleading through the web for the Steelers to make one play, thoughtful Feed contributors whose write-ups enrich us all, and even those silently lurking who click, read, and decide enough was already said.
All of your voices, insights, and mere presence shares the love for black and gold that is really what this community is all about.
Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas filled with food, laughter, and football.
