Donny Football

Legendary moment.

Not a great one, but a legendary one in Steelers history from Thanksgiving of 98.

Neither of the men I'm here with, I don't think.

Wait, were you alive, Donnie?

was i was only three years old donnie was three and limits was not yet born negative three negative three was limits we are here at bowser chevy in monroeville myself and donnie football for a donnie football friday and man are things heating up now donald aren't they they're heating up now as the steelers go back

into Detroit for what amounts to a giant game.

Like I think for a lot of this week, I've been trying to talk myself into, I mean, they can lose, they could lose the next two and still it's not that big.

It's pretty darn big because there's a bunch of scenarios here that are racking my brain.

And even though you and I just rehearse them, like we're getting ready for a play here, Don, were you ever in a play by the way, in high school?

Yeah, I think I'm thinking elementary school.

I was in Thoroughly Modern Millie, and I was the German flying instructor.

I had one line, and I've never been that nervous for a moment, not even my wedding, in my life.

What?

I was in, like, fifth grade.

I had to run from backstage in the middle of the play, and I think my only line was, Just like that.

I'll never forget it.

And the rush of redness to my face and everything else with everybody watching me...

Exactly.

This is different.

That's why when we go to those fan rehearsals or those fan auditions, like the one Malzi won, those are not recreating what we do here.
