If you are a yinzer, and not merely a Steeler fan, you well know which professional franchise holds the record for most consecutive losing seasons. That would be the Pittsburgh Pirates. You will remember as well Crazy Bob Nutting’s Annual Fire Sale, where the prices on expensive stars were INSANE! If you’re with me so far you’ll also remember that before that streak ended, before the chant Johnnnny!!!

And every year since then the Pirates have been at least competitive enough that it remained, until the deadline, an open question whether we’d be buying or selling.
