Only In Pittsburgh....AKA Steelers Walking Around Naked?

This article was originally published here. Please visit One For The Other Thumb for this and more. Read it, love it, comment it, tell me I'm an idiot...your choice, and now onto the show:

Yes, I'll get to some more substantive Steelers news later today (fingers crossed...busy day), but I just wanted to point out a news story that I imagine would only be likely to happen in Pittsburgh.

I actually caught wind of this yesterday and at first thought nothing of it, but in case you're not in the 'Burgh and clued in on the day to day news - A female officer is claiming gender discrimination because she was not allowed to guard the Steelers hotel floor during last week's home game weekend against the Packers.

Response to said claim: Another Pittsburgh officer said the woman, Cynthia Ferreti, was not allowed to guard the Steelers floor because the Steelers "walk down the hallway with no clothes on." Uh...they're what? They've gotta mean Jeff Reed on that one. I just can't imagine a guy like Troy Polamalu or even Big Ben walking around with their junk hanging out. Reminds me of a scene from high school where you've got like Cedrick Wilson walking around without clothes and suddenly Larry Foote comes up behind him and rat tails him right in the ass with a wet towel.

Anyways, if this is true, what other kind of debauchery do you suppose these guys are engaged in? Maybe we should look at that Hotel demand list a little more closely, huh?

What a giant mess...this whole thing, not the Jeff Reed picture below...
