Oh no. Look at the shock factor. My favorite sister of the poor is NC State.

Is NC State good at any sport? There's gotta be one decent program in that athletic department...right?

Southwestern Pirates established in 1840.
Pittsburgh Pirates established 1891.

Are you saying that Pittsburgh isn't land locked....or, do you consider Lake Erie the High Seas?

My Pittsburgh Pirates got their moniker from "pirating" a player from the Philadelphia Athletics. Historically, there were river pirates on the Ohio River.
