01.30.09 IT WAS INEVITABLE: THE TERRIBLE SHAMWOW!
Pittsburgh sports blog Mondesi’s House is pretty much unreadable with excitement for the Super Bowl right now, but credit where it’s due: the Terrible ShamWow! arrived at the intersection of sports fandom and pop culture with pretty impeccable timing. (Don’t worry Arizona fans, there’s a theoretical Cardinals ShamWow! as well.) Fortunately for society, the one pictured here is one of only two in existence, so Steelers fans are still going to need five, ten, EVEN TWELVE Terrible Towels to clean up spilled Iron City beer!!!
Elsewhere in Steeler fan news, another 12,000 new Steeler fan songs have been uploaded to YouTube in the last 15 minutes. And Chris Mottram of The Sporting Blog continues to do the Lord’s work in Tampa as he analyzes the stereotypical Steelers fan. My God, I can’t believe that’s an actual person. Makes you wonder if giving every citizen the right to vote is a good idea.

Watch it, M-Uff, that’s Southern talk.
@Enrico - take a look at the chinstrap beard, Steelers tat, and Superman tat, and tell me I’m wrong.
The Steelers ShamWow can absorb 5x the amount of douche that the leading towel can. [AP]
Matt, you’ve never been more right.
ShamWows make great cum chamois.
Mottram failed to point out the multiple bracelets Steeler douche is wearing.
Not to mention the general skin tone and body type of this tool. I’ve never been to Pittsburgh but this is how I picture everyone who lives there. (Fair, I know)
I heard the Cardinals are trying to develop an Arizona Snuggie, but Warner keeps insisting it looks too much like “the vestments of our Lord and Savior.”
And you can’t miss the guy in the background rocking the jean shorts
@ Enrico - it wasn’t just southern I copied this from an online history magazine:
1789 - Establishment of the American democracy. White men with property can vote. Poor people cannot vote. Women, Native Americans, and enslaved African-Americans cannot vote, Pittsburgh Steeler fans cannot vote.
OK - I added that last sentence, but I’m sure they would have put that in there if the Steelers had been around.
Theoretical Cardinals ShamWow!? Is that similar to Schroedinger’s Mighty Putty?
