I know that there are a few Steelers fans poking around the Feck websites, so I thought I would just make a short 'in memoriam' post about legendary sportscaster and former Steelers' colour analyst Myron Cope.  He died yesterday at the age of 79.  I grew up listening to his voice and he is a piece of Pittsburgh culture that is ingrained in me, so I'm quite sad to hear of him passing on to the announcer booth in the sky.

RIP.  I think a trip to Kennywood Park is in order, followed by root beer and hotdogs and a whole batch of re-runs.  I'm there in spirit. x

YES!  I would also like a funnel cake.  Thanks, Hippolytus, and Myron says 'garganzola!'
