A Local Call
Even the sun sets in Steeler Gold here!
A man was in Dallas and was talking with Bill Parcells. He looks to his left and sees a red phone and asks what that is. "That is the phone line to God, and it will cost you one thousand dollars." The man thought to himself and realized that he could get all the picks for the games that week correct and decides to pay the money and call God. That Sunday, he gets all the picks right and wins big money.
The next week, he is in Foxboro, Massachussets and sees the same red phone and asks New England Patriots head coach Bill Bilechik if that is the phone line to God and Bilechik says it is and it will cost him one thousand dollars. Since he won so big last week, he pays the money again and wins tons of dough.
The following week he is in Pittsburgh and sees that same red phone. He asks Bill Cowher about it and Bill tells him it is the phone line to God and it will cost him 35 cents. The man, very upset, tells Bill that he just paid one thousand dollars in both Dallas and New England and wants to know why it is so cheap in Pittsburgh. "Well, here in Pittsburgh," Bill explains, "it's a local call.
I am not really ready to brag up my Steelers too much. It was a wonderful game but my heart is still not quite beating at a normal pace yet. Those last minute decisons always get me going. Now that we have gelded those Colts I hope we can carry on that effort next week against the Broncos. Steelers rock my world!
