Second Offseason Weekend Of 2021: Steelers Friday Night Five Questions

Happy Friday and welcome to the second weekend of the offseason as it has now been two weekends since Super Bowl LV took place.

Greetings from a hotel in Pittsburgh where I am in town this week spending time with Alex Kozora and David Orochena. We had quite a day on Thursday as we loaded up a rental car and drover a few hours to Canton, OH to spend nearly four hours in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This was my first time visiting the Pro Football Hall of Fame and it has been on my bucket list since I first got sick several months ago. It was a blast of a trip and one I will never forget. Walking through that corridor of the busts was quite something and somewhat spiritual in nature. After spending almost four hours at the Hall of Fame, Alex, David and I went and had lunch at a local Canton bar and grill and the food was great. On the way home, I had them stop by a Sheetz so I could take that destination in and get a coffee. lol

As usual, I have five questions for yinz to answer during this Friday night and I hope to see several participate. Thank you for making the offeason great so far and thank you for all the continued patronage.

Thank you also to Orochena for running the Friday Night Five Questions contest again this past season.

Have a safe and prosperous weekend and peace and love to all!
