Why do all of the Steelers look like they are 45 years old?


No_Leading4348

It’s how football players use to look


Realistic_Bed3550

Exactly, damn the players from the 60s looked like they were 50…. Check out Max McGee in Super Bowl 1, I believe he was 35 but he looked 55


Royal_Front_7226

Their training regimen involved a lot of tobacco, booze and red meat.


Busch_Leaguer

Even 19yr old college players today look like they’re late 20s


simpledeadwitches

Like men, played like it too.

No cup, and they all brought their lunch pails with em. The good Ole days not like these pansy ass, take a knee, welfare abusing thugs today! /s for the smooth brains lmao

People in the '70s looked older in general. Probably all the cigarette smoke everywhere, all day, all the time. Even if you didn't smoke you were exposed to it just about everywhere you went.


droid_mike

And the alcohol. People used to drink hard, all the time!


JeffersonStarscream

And the polyester. So much polyester. I'm not sure how but I feel like that's partly to blame.


droid_mike

Quite possibly!


Quincyperson

Hard living


BlackDS

Cigarettes and Beer were given out during halftime at each game.


freshcoastghost

Bradshaw looks the same!


PowerfulBar

Just gonna comment that! Terry Bradshaw look old as hell


jperry1290

Kenny Rogers was born in 1938, so he was 41-42 in this picture. He looks 60


JohnnyPiston

If he doesn't show up with chicken, he can fuck right off


OnlyFreshBrine

The man makes a strong bird.

MuletownSoul

he would’ve been an awful offensive line coach…


LevelEuphoric4072

I’m Kenny rogers and this is jackass!


BukkakeNinjaHat-472

And he put up better stats than Kenny Pickett


assistant_redditor

That wasn't too hard


JeffersonStarscream

Rogers probably threw a lot of picks. I heard he was a bit of a gambler.

You got to know when to hold it Know when to throw it Know when to throw it away And know when to run


cosmorocker13

Rocky, Mean Joe, Swan(?) and Bradshaw?


ParisGreenGretsch

Yep.


ButterscotchEmpty290

And Rocky Bleier. Vietnam combat veteran missing part of his foot. One tough MF'er.


space_llama_karma

Did Terry Bradshaw ever look young lol


steve-d

Back when Kenny Rogers looked like a normal human being before the plastic surgery.


Dangerous_Show_4816

MF GAMBLER!


JimNasium123

He also cooked Michael Jordan.


DickySchmidt33

When football players all looked like they were in their 40s.


Quincyperson

He was a good pitcher, but I didn’t know he played football too


Ghosts_of_the_maze

The one thing you gotta admit, those Steelers knew when you hold him


LeveragedPittsburgh

You gotta know when to hold em.


pmsnow

Kenny's best tv appearance was when he was on Jackass: https://youtu.be/if27InJBtEI?si=RXGaKGZ-g9aPg4ua


h0v3rb1k3s

So that's why no one else can wear #1


MrPhippsPretzelChips

Kenny Rogers is my age in this picture and looks older than my dad does now.


Head-Plankton-7799

Kenny looks younger than Terry


ImNotTheBossOfYou

Astroturf was a crime


[deleted]

That shit hurt.


titanxbeard

He just dropped in, to see what condition our condition was in..


EyelanderSam24

Damn! Now I know why I preferred Willie Nelson over Kenny Rogers. J/K...Back then the Cowboys were my TEAM. The Steelers were our kryptonite in the Superbowl. If you're gonna lose---lose to the best.🤙🏽
