While the Steelers can no longer lay claim to the unique position of being the one NFL team with 6 Super Bowl victories, the Pirates still are the lone, not NL team, not MLB team, but the lone major franchise to have endured twenty straight losing seasons. That’s a record for the ages, likely to outlast Dimaggio’s streak. Which, of course, can cause a great deal of frustration for Pirate fans. Frustration can lead to anger, and anger to bitterness. Which is why it is good, from time to time, to stop and give thanks, to remember the things we should be grateful for.
