New Pittsburgh Mascot (non-BB)
« on: August 09, 2007, 01:06:51 pm »
The Steelers introduced a new mascot for the upcoming season yesterday, named - I shit you not - Steely McBeam. That's a handsome man, right there. And like all laborers of the steel trade, he works hard, he plays hard.

It's the "McBeam" part that's the genius of it.  The guy who came up with that has to have a corner office.

I guess "Beaminowski" would have been too big to fit on the back of his jersey.

Sadly the genius of the name was unmatched by the design of the costume.  How could they have left off the pornstache?

Is it just me, or does he have the body of a small child attached to his right elbow?
