Myron Cope Autographs
Myron Cope was a beloved American sports broadcaster and journalist best known for his vibrant personality and unique contributions to the world of football. Born on January 27, 1929, in an immigrant neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Cope nurtured a passion for sports from a young age. After serving in the U.S. Army during the Korean War, he began his career in journalism, landing a position as a sportswriter and later transitioning into broadcasting. However, it was his distinctive voice and engaging commentary that truly catapulted him into the American football scene.
Cope became a household name as the color commentator for the Pittsburgh Steelers' radio broadcasts starting in the late 1970s. His unmatched enthusiasm and insight offered fans a deeper understanding of the game and endeared him to Steelers supporters. He is perhaps most famously known for coining the term "Steelers Nation," encapsulating the passionate fan base that has supported the team through thick and thin. Cope's unique style, characterized by catchphrases and a genuine love for the game, made him a key figure during the Steelers' championship years in the 1970s and 1980s, contributing to the growing popularity of NFL broadcasts.
Beyond his broadcasting work, Myron Cope's influence extended to the broader landscape of football. He was instrumental in devising the "Terrible Towel," a rallying symbol for Steelers fans, which became an iconic part of the team's identity. His contributions to the sport earned him numerous accolades, including induction into the Steelers Hall of Honor and the National Radio Hall of Fame. Cope retired from broadcasting in 2005 but left behind a legacy as one of the most influential figures in sports journalism. He passed away on February 27, 2019, leaving a lasting imprint on the game of football and the city of Pittsburgh.
