  1. Yesterday was my 48th birthday, one of my earliest childhood memories growing up in the South hills of Pittsburgh was the Pirates winning the 79 world series and the the Steelers 4th Superbowl win and me thinking this is the greatest place on earth! Still is! Franco Harris is a huge reason it was not only on the field but off of it. R.I.P.

  2. I met Franco Harris as a young kid at an event after the OKC bombing. He was the kindest "famous person' i ever met. Up there with Ernie Johnson. Much love Franco. RIP

  3. The Raiders were involved in two historical controversial plays that launched two separate teams into their dynasties. The first was the Steelers and the Immaculate Reception. The second team was the Patriots and the Tom Brady Tuck Rule play.

  4. r.I.p Franco Harris!!! If the immaculate reception was subject to the instant replay rules of today history would be halted because we would still be waiting on replay's decision ๐Ÿคฃ. So let's just keep this as the iconic moment that it is in NFL History.

  5. Franco was a truly great man to all who knew him, and regarding his controversial comments in support of Joe Paterno during the Penn State sexual abuse scandal. Let's keep in mind that Joe Paterno didn't sexually assault anyone. Jerry Sandusky did. The question is how much Joe did or did not believe/know the extent of what Sandusky was doing. Let's also keep in mind that Joe Paterno was REVERED by generations of students and players as a great human being until this scandal at the very end of his life. Franco Harris who went to Penn State, and revered Paterno the coach who launched his epic life as a football star, felt deep loyalty towards Paterno who was like a father figure to him, and if Franco made a mistake in those comments, it was giving the benefit of the doubt to Joe Paterno in believing Joe's word that he did not think Sandusky was sexually assaulting boys. Only Joe Paterno knows for sure what he did or did not know or believe regarding Sandusky, but I FULLY beleive Franco merely wanted to give the man he felt indebted to, loyal support, because Franco was the type of guy who was a loyal reliable friend. If that's Franco's biggest mistake in life, he sure did better than most of us. RIP Franco. In Steeler Nations' heart ALWAYS AND FOREVER.

  9. The sad thing was us Yinzers couldn't watch the game live on tv because it didn't sell out 48 hours in advance. We had to listen to it on the radio. Channel 11 got to show a replay of the game at like 1am. Somebody should put out a dvd of this game.
