Description

As a longtime presence with the Pittsburgh Steelers as both a player and a broadcaster, Craig Wolfley knew what it meant to live and breathe Steelers football. In If These Walls Could Talk: Pittsburgh Steelers, Wolfley opens up about his life and career in Pittsburgh as only he can: with wisdom, wit, and reverence.

He reveals the nitty-gritty of what it takes to be a football player at the highest echelon of the game: grueling practices, endless studying and preparation, and a hyper-disciplined mindset. No sport for the faint of heart, he details the incredible physical toll the game takes on its gridiron warriors. There are also moments of levity – training camps hijinks, party bus shenanigans, flying beer cans, and yes, even snakes. What emerges is a portrait of a true band of brothers, forged in Black and Gold.

Studded with anecdotes about everyone from Mean Joe to Polamalu, Bradshaw to Big Ben, Noll to Tomlin, to a host of other players staff, coaches, and media who have comprised Steelers Nation over the past decades, this is an indispenable volume for Steelers fans everywhere.
