    The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family

    Chapter One The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family The 1980–1985 Seasons ♦◊♦ As over forty-four thousand Pirates fans headed to Three Rivers Sta- dium for the home opener of the 1980 season, they had every reason to feel optimistic about the Pirates and Pittsburgh sports in general. In the 1970s, their Pirates had captured six divisional titles, two National League pennants, and two World Series championships. Their Steelers, after decades of futility, had won four Super Bowls in the 1970s, while the University of Pittsburgh Panthers led by Heisman Trophy winner Tony Dorsett added to the excitement by winning a collegiate national championship in football. There was no reason for Pittsburgh sports fans to doubt that the 1980s would bring even more titles to the City of Champions. After the “We Are Family” Pirates, led by Willie Stargell, won the 1979 World Series, the ballclub’s goals for 1980 were “Two in a Row and Two Million Fans.”1 If the Pirates repeated as World Series champions, it would mark the first time that a Pirates team had accomplished that feat in franchise history. If two million fans came out to Three Rivers Stadium to see the Pirates win back-to-back World Series titles, it would 3 © 2017 University of Pittsburgh Press.

The offseason after the 1979 World Series victory was a whirlwind of awards and honors, highlighted by World Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) Willie Stargell and Super Bowl MVP Terry Bradshaw of the Steelers appearing on the cover of the December 24, 1979, Sports Illustrated as corecipients of the magazine’s Sportsman of the Year Award.

    WHAT IS THE OAKLAND CATHOLIC GALA? YOU ARE INVITED TO JOIN US FOR Oakland Catholic High School offers a unique educational experience to young women who serve as a beacon of hope and light to our Pittsburgh neighborhoods and beyond: future leaders who will inspire positive change in our world. Their leadership development occurs within the heart of a city that has taken a place on the national stage as future-oriented and innovative. A city that we are proud to call our campus and our home. To celebrate the importance of this one-of-a-kind Oakland Catholic High School experience, we have designed a gala that's very different from a typical auction. Instead of buying a ticket, bidding on silent auction items that you probably don't need, and juggling your wine glass with raffle tickets, we’ve kept it simple by increasing sponsorship opportunities at different levels and inviting you to a large OC-style party!. CONSIDER DONATING TOWARDS A SPONSORSHIP, OR MAKING AN ADDITIONAL CASH DONATION, IN LIEU OF WHAT YOU TYPICALLY WOULD SPEND AT A FUNDRAISING AUCTION! The Elite Showband will be present for live music and dancing. Nothing to buy—no raffles, no silent or live auctions—just hors d’oeuvres, drinks, a sit down dinner, great company, music, and dancing. The funds raised for this event are extremely important to the well-being of Oakland Catholic High School and we count on the proceeds raised through Gala sponsors and attendees. The event promises to be one of the most enjoyable and memorable evenings of the year!
