Sunday Night Football
Join us for another evening of Sunday Night Football at Words and Lyrics. The Pittsburgh Steelers will be visiting Los Angeles to take on the L.A. Chargers on November 9th. Doors open at 8:00 pm, and the game will begin at 8:20 pm. I think this game is going to be a tough test for the Steelers, as they face off against a formidable L.A. offense led by QB Justin Herbert. However, the Steelers' defense looked revitalized against the Colts last weekend in a 27 to 20 win.
This will be my third NFL watch-party hosted at Words and Lyrics, and attendees are usually passionate about pro football. However, everyone is invited to drop by regardless of fandom. Gabby095 had a nice write up of the Chiefs-Chargers game back in September; this contest was unique because it was played in Brazil and broadcast worldwide on Youtube.
Here is Gabby's recollection of that event: The Night MangoMarket Became a Stadium
Gabby's blog is a lot of fun, and he really brings a lot of passion and enthusiasm to his interactions on there. I am always impressed with how many activities he participates in and all the friends he's made along the way. It was a pleasant surprise when I first discovered his blog online, and he wrote an entry about my 50th anniversary watch-party for Jaws. Cool to see the event from another angle!
Another exciting game was the Steelers-Vikings match-up played in Ireland back on September 28th, 2025. AgapeLove wore her "Big-Ben" Roethlilsberger jersey, and I was decked out in my "Stillerz" hoody and black-and-gold pants. Any designers out there capable of making another Big Ben jersey? lol
