I'm going to wager that the Steelers have paid at least 50 million less dollars than the Skins and Boys over the last 5 years and produced about double the victories. (oh, and a Lombardi Trophy for good measure) As for Lurie, any Philadelphian will tell you that the Eagles have been nothing less than a circus over the last couple of seasons.<BR/><BR/>Cult TV Shows Missed:<BR/><BR/>Arrested Development, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and of course, Sanford and Son, the greatest ball busting that 30 minutes of network TV can provide.Briwatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07579178607345657335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-56331618386792581502007-07-02T19:43:00.000-04:002007-07-02T19:43:00.000-04:00Also (sorry I did a paper on this once) population...Also (sorry I did a paper on this once) population density should be taken into consideration.<BR/><BR/>Sunbelt towns are VERY spread out, hence more room for people to live.<BR/><BR/>Pittsburgh and other rust belt towns, despite declining populations, are still very densely populated.<BR/><BR/>In other words, in Pittsburgh you've got about 320,000 people packed into a small area. Here in Tampa, you've got the same amount of people, but the acreage of the city is more than double that of Pittsburgh.<BR/><BR/>Plus, a lot of times these population of city things don't take into account how many people have simply left the city for a surrounding suburb, as opposed to bolting for Las Vegas.Louis Lipps is my homeboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09156545693381178335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-67962352611254757022007-07-02T19:39:00.000-04:002007-07-02T19:39:00.000-04:00Old rust belt cities like Pittsburgh and Detroit, ...Old rust belt cities like Pittsburgh and Detroit, will continue to lose population until they can bring in more jobs to replace the industrial jobs they lost 25 years ago.<BR/><BR/>Until then, I guess everyone should start looking at property in the desert, because apparently that's where we're all supposed to wind up living!!Louis Lipps is my homeboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09156545693381178335noreply@blogger.com
