Who ride? WE RIDE!! ![]() So, 114 days later, the celebration seems to be over - for the team, anyway. The ring's actually pretty cool. One side has the player's name and jersey number, and the other side has the score. I'd like to know how they fit Roethlisberger's name on there. But anyway, as far as rings go, I love this one. It was right of Jerome to persuade the Rooneys to include the first four trophies, because he's right - this team lives under the shadow of the dynasty from the 1970's, and will continue to do so - at least until it has four of its own. That said, I hope we can get another one...or three. But the team has to focus first, as they've been doing. One game at a time, one season at a time. Coaches and players have been saying it over and over again - the celebration ends when they have their rings. Yeah, the fans will celebrate, and I can't speak for everyone else, but for me, the celebration will technically end in September. Because it is then that we will no longer be the champs - instead, we'll be the defending champs. I don't think anyone in Steeler Nation would have it any other way.
