Winter Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Yep, sad. DJ kicked ass. 1979 - I was seven years old. Loved the Sonics - watched them win the title. Then got uprooted and moved to Pittsburgh. The Pirates won the world series in October of that same year. Then the Stillers stepped up and won the Super Bowl for the 4th time in 6 years at the end of '79 early '80. three titles in a year. Ever since then I've been a sports fan - indoctrinated at an early age. Of course then I suffered through another 15 years of mediocrity until the Mario and the Pens won two in a row in the 90s.
