A sad day in Pittsburgh Steelers history

[jimnyc]

Myron Cope, the "mouth" of the Steelers and creator of the Terrible Towel, passed away this morning at 79 years old. He was the announcer for Steelers games for 35 years and is known for his weird voice and accent, and his "yoi's". He was "drafted" by the Steelers in 1970 alongside Terry Bradshaw and many remember him just as they do the 4 time SB winner. But he'll be remembered best for bringing the infamous towel to the Steelers that followed them wherever they went. RIP Myron!
