Have you not ever heard of anything about Pittsburgh?

It's kind of hard to believe that you didn't realize Pittsburgh had rough neighborhoods like this. Most of Pittsburgh and the surrounding industrial towns are "worse for wear". It's easily among the grittiest cities you will find.

Never heard anything about the collapse of the steel industry?

Nothing about losing 50% of its population?

Nothing about the perception of a dying (dead) steel town?

Really?

Never seen countless photo threads on this very site about Pittsburgh?

I'd say that they are "Pittsburgh hot"... meaning 6s and 7s

Love the thread!!
Since I've moved to the GTA, the furthest the Leafs made it in the playoffs was the 2nd round and even that had pre-game fans out cheering on the streets. I'd love to see what would happen if they even made it to the Eastern finals! I think 6-7 is a bit low of a rating for their age, especially the blonde and brunette, but to each their own.
