What do you think of the Steelers mascot?

[Forget Favre]

Anyone's opinion is welcome even though I would really like to read from the Steelers fans who are visiting.

Steely McBeam.
I suppose they could do worse.

Mascots are for children and people who dont watch football.

 

[Powarun]

The open mouth is kind of creepy. But its a fairly good mascot.

 

[OldSchoolFan]

Our mascots are 13 Championship trophies...

 

[BrettStarr]

I thought he looks a lot like Cowher or a memember of the village people. Could be much worse. Also kinda looks like Purdue Pete.

Hate him. We've had several grassroots attempts to get rid of "Steely", but the management has resisted.

 

[Big E]

Steely McBeam? Sounds like a pornstar name lol.

Steely McBeam? Sounds like a pornstar name lol.

A former NFL quarterback (who will not be named) will be going into **** now that he has just retired...

His name? No, not "Steely McBeam" or even "Buck Naked"... he prefers "Limp Noodle"

 

[armand34]

he does look like cowher

In my search I saw that a number of fans didn't like him.
Didn't know about the tries to get rid of him.
Were there any alternative suggestions?

It seems like college mascots are more set in stone than some of the NFL ones which seem to be more fickle.

That's a good one.

We fans personally did not approve!We were happy without a mascot,or cheerleaders for that matter.It seems we are always in the mix come playoff time so believe me,we are plenty entertained!Had to be one of the front office wives who thought it would be "cute".:russian_roulette:

 

[greenandgold]

About the same as their finest cheerleader.

I hate that horrid thing. I have no idea who thought it would be a good idea to have that thing, but they should have been fired.

I think the most popular alternative was "nothing".

Howdy, Hitman. Welcome to the party.

 

[Powarun]

It would of been Bradshaw, and I quit watching him.

That will ring his bell.
But not in a good way.

Mascots are for college teams....with the exception of the Phoenix Suns gorilla. So basically, if you aren't the gorilla then its amateur.

 

[TMC]

Steely McBeam is horrible.

Whomever thought of that should have been fired. WAIT, they should be made to coach the Browns for 5 seasons.

When I saw Steely, I immediately thought of Jet Jaguar for some reason. Go Figure.
