While I'm sure this will have the beneficial effect on FIRST Andy mentioned in his post, unfortunately, I am an extreme (and currently suffering) Cleveland Browns fan, so the addition of a Pittsburgh Steeler to the advisory board holds no WOW factor for me.
But maybe while I'm at Pittsburgh I can go up to him and ask him if the Immaculate Reception was, indeed, an illegal catch as so many claim.... Nyah, nyah, nyah! There is no gracious professionalism in the Browns-Steelers rivalry!
Now if they can get Bernie Kosar to chair the Buckeye Regional Advisory Committee, that would be cool....
