The Rooney family is classy.

I can't find a reason but at one time they did. They were called the Steelerettes (steelerettes.com) and were a squad chosen from a local junior college. Once the junior college had their own football team, the Steelerettes disbanded. They were the official squad from 1961-1970.

The Steelers were actually one of the first teams to ever have cheerleaders. They were named (are you ready for this?) The Steelerettes. How clever. They were basically a gimmick created to take attention away from how awful the team was. The squad only stuck around for about 8 years (61-69) before they were disbanded.

As for why they don't have a squad now, can you imagine trying to find a group of attractive women who would be willing to bounce around in short skirts in the middle of December in Pittsburgh? They'd have to be crazy.
