Super Bowl XLV


When the Steelers fans, cheering in Pittburghese, 
Meet the Packers fans' cheese-headed infantries, 
They'll hope, for the game's sake, 

Their team's the best namesake 
Of twentieth century industries.   


This year's Super Bowl contest between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers recalls the industrial, working class roots of American pro football, as the namesakes of the Indian Packing Company and US Steel Corporation step onto the fields of friendly strife.
