Does the Steelers new mascot remind you of anyone?
The Steelers organization will invite fans to help name the new mascot. My suggestion for a name: The Chin.
UPDATE: My brother Anthony thought the mascot would look good wearing that sweater Cowher wore to pretty much every press conference.

(I know it’s not very zen of me to keep this running inner monologue that consists mostly of stranger-judging and Death Wish-style fantasies. If I could learn meditation I’m sure the voices would quiet a bit. I have a number of meditation albums on my iPod. I only listen to them on the subways to drown out everyone around me. But I’ve learned that it’s important to remember how strangers are dressed and what they look like because as a Hysterical Feminist®, I believe that all men are potential rapists. As an added bonus, this enables me to follow men’s fashion trends pretty closely.)So often, the asides are the best bits. too sweet to die » Blog Archive » Y

Cindy, this has me laughing out loud. I can picture fans doing a chin-chant at the games!
I still think they should have modeled the mascot after the “Hunky Steelworker” sculpture from that Three Rivers Arts Festival many years ago.
Love the photo magic with the sweater.
Um, personally, I think the mascot is a little frightening. I mean, doesn’t he look a tad more maniacal than happy?
His eyebrows sorta remind me of those carpet samples they used to make us sit on in grade school.
Yeh we’ve been talking about the new Steelers mascot over at Highbrid Nation. Our readers don’t seem to care for him but I’m sitting on the fence. Its just hard for me to picture the guy lasting to long. My vote for his name though? Terrible Terry :)
“The Chin.” I vote for “The Chin.” Not a mistake. Brilliant!
Looks to me like any red blooded male’s reaction when confronted with a woman who flashes.
I don’t know what his first name should be, but I’m guessing his surname will be something like SZALANKIEWICZ or ZBRZEZNJ.
take off the heavy ie broys! make him jolly or happy.
