turtle28 3,586 Posted June 12 (edited) First Name: Adam Age: 41 Location: Gaithersburg, MD - it’s 25 miles north of DC Job(s): Lobbyist for a Labor Union College/Degree: I have my BS in BS, no jk, well I do have a bachelor of science (BS) in Government. I went to WVU for 2 years but transferred to be closer to my GF and graduated from Towson University, it’s about 15-20 miles north of Baltimore in Baltimore County. Favorite Pastimes: Sports, Cars & fast women! Haha 🤣 Favorite Movies/Shows: The Neighborhood, Chicago Fire, Chicago PD, anything history, anything action or comedy. Favorite Current/Past Steeler: TJ Watt/Jack Lambert. My dad went to Kent State when Nick Saban and Lambert were there but they were older than him by a year or 2. My dad said Lambert used to sit by himself at lunch, he was super skinny and just looked mad and mean all the time. Goals in life: To grow up some day! Not there yet, hopefully I get there though! So, I just want to talk about my Steelers fandom which some of you may know already as I’ve been on and off this forum for the last 12-13 years. My parents were born and are from Bellaire, OH, it’s a small town on the Ohio River right across from Wheeling, WV. So, my dad was a coal miner in the 70s, they went on strike for 111 days in 1978 and he applied for a job at the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) Headquarters in Washington, DC. He got a job there and at the same time my mom had just gotten pregnant with me. So, they moved to Maryland near where she had family that lived in Rockville, MD bc my great-uncle’s father-in-law had also worked at the headquarters for the UMWA. Needless to say, I was born a Steelers fan. My parents lived only 45 minutes from Pittsburgh but in Ohio during the greatest decade of the Steelers organization, the 70s. As you all know, I’m also a Redskins fan. I became a Redskins fan in kindergarten bc all of my friends were Redskins fans and at that time the Redskins were good to great and the Steelers were mostly average in the mid 80s until Cowher was hired in the early 90s, so I like both teams.

MOSteelers56 1,483 Posted June 12 Welcome(sort of) @turtle28 Your job seems interesting. I have a lot of thoughts on lobbying and Unions, not the time or place, though. I'm a teacher deep in the heart of a non-union state. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turtle28 3,586 Posted June 16 I forgot to mention, I did graduate from college in Raven Country when they won their first Super Bowl & Jamal Lewis was their running back. I saw him at the mall once signing autographs. Funny story: I was wearing my Washington Redskins Lavar Arrington Jersey from 2000. And Poe - the Ravens mascot - saw me in the food court of the mall and started to fake fight me! Haha 🤣 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
