As we inch closer and closer to kickoff, I keep finding interesting things to post about. (At least, I think they are interesting. And like Roger Goodell recently said to Mike Tomlin, don’t forget who runs shit around here.)
This will be the first of a quick two-post series that will expand on this post and break down the Super Bowl history of the SB XLV participants. We’ll start out with the Steelers because while the Packers have more NFL championships, no one has as many Super Bowl wins as Pittsburgh.

In a few hours, we’ll be able to add the result for the Steelers’ latest Super Bowl appearance. I think it’ll be a W, but with a matchup this even, trying to predict a winner is a pretty futile endeavor.
