Going Retro Once Again...





































Check out these pics I found from the Steelers training for the 1996 season. These were taken at Frostburg State University in Frostburg, Md which is around 35 minutes east of the lake, and 15 minutes west of Cumberland, MD. This school is located in the heart of Steelers Country in Western Maryland. The Redskins organization left their summer home of Dickinson College in Carlisle, PA to try a different venue for a couple of years. It simply did not work. This is "Steelers Country"! In these pics you can make out a very young Coach Bill Cowher, Chad Brown, Jerry O(Olsavsky), Joel Steed, the much maligned Kordell Stewart, Ernie Mills, Levon Kirkland, Greg Lloyd, "first year Steeler" Jerome Bettis(look at how thin the Bus is!), the late Justin Strzelczyk, Darren Perry, Rod Woodson's head(right behind Perry), and Yancy Thigpen.
