Dear Nescott, I heard a rumor that the only reason they're charging the $49 is to cover Ben R's deductible.

And we're supposed to be the "cheapskate" organization.

To paraphrase Jason Robards from the film "Parenthood" when the Rooney's find a nickel they huddle together and bury it like squirells.

I dont think the steelers think they will win another superbowl for a while so they are trying to make the most of this one.

Smile Save Ten with Ben

The $49 charge is the retail price. It's only $39 if you agree to a motorcycle ride with Ben.

What's the big deal? Pittsburgh already held their victory parade in February.

This is a rock concert with a championship theme. Concerts are held at Gillette all the time and no one complains. Why is it money-grubbing just when another team does it?

If the gate funds went to some charity that would be ok......

You all missed the funniest part.

The money's going to Belichick's buddy.

This doesn't seem to be an issue on the Steeler board.
