Bob O'Connor Fucking Rules.

Bob O’Connor. He’s dead. Death sucks. Cancer super sucks. Brain cancer is like 490563244 tons of big fat suck. But folks, the fact remains: he’s dead.

From today’s Post-Gazette:
“Before the casket lid closed for the last time at the funeral home, Corey O'Connor made sure his father carried his terry cloth with him to his final resting place.

‘He's going up to heaven with a Terrible Towel,’ the son said, amused at the thought of a deed-counting St. Peter escorting another Steelers fan in the cheering section no doubt located between the cherubim and seraphim.”


Alright, so dude was a Steelers fan. Awesome. But I think people are taking the funeral-and-season-opener-on-the-same-day thing the wrong way. This morning on DVE, one of the typically cynical DJs was all, “Bob O’Connor was smiling down from heaven on our Steelers last night.”

Christ! Dead people do not smile down from heaven on sports teams!


They play on them.


Last night, The Ghost of Bob O’Connor caught a 17 yard pass from Charlie Batch and took off downfield for an 87-yard touchdown, rushed for 115 yards on 29 carries, and even caused a fumble on defense.

Don’t believe me?? See below:










Hot damn! I wish The Ghost of Bob O’Connor was on my fantasy team!
