>>> > The flags and banners were all hung with care,
>>> > In hopes of the winners circle, the Steelers are there;
>>> >
>>> > The players were nestled all snug in their beds,
>>> > While visions of finger rings danced in their heads;

>>> > With Cowher in charge, I had a night cap,
>>> > And settled down for one more night's nap;

>>> > When up at Ford Field there arose such a clatter,
>>> > Seattle fans wondered just what was the matter;
>>> >
>>> > For at the stadium there was a great flash,
>>> > Someone had entered with no ticket, no cash;
>>> >
>>> > The moon on the breast of factories covered in snow,
>>> > Gave the luster of mid-day to the man standing below;
>>> >
>>> > When what to their wondering eyes should appear,
>>> > Who this man was, it became quite clear;
>>> >
>>> > The smoke from his cigar made the air rather gloomy,
>>> > But they knew in a moment that it was Art Rooney;
>>> >
>>> > He held the team roster, the plan of attack,
>>> > Big Ben to Hines Ward or the Bus in the back;
>>> >
>>> > He saw in the defense a curtain of steel,
>>> > If they can't sack Matt then nobody will;
>>> >
>>> > Troy will cover the field, he'll be everywhere,
>>> > I'm telling you Seahawks, you better beware;
>>> >
>>> > His long locks of hair will flow in the breeze,
>>> > He'll catch Matt's passes with the greatest of ease;
>>> >
>>> > Mr. Rooney walked the sideline; he paced to and fro,
>>> > He wore black and gold from his head to his toe;
>>> >
>>> > A terrible towel he held oh so tight,
>>> > As he looked to the heavens on that cold Detroit night;
>>> >
>>> > Then the words that he spoke left all feeling quite numb,
>>> > Lord get us this game and my one for the thumb!!!
