I just want to say that I love the Steelers for beating the Patriots.
Bump-diddly-ump.
Superbowl champ and winner of 21 in row New England? Demolished.
Undefeated and supposedly scary Philadelphia? Steamrolled, embarrassed and sent packing.
Good Times in the Steeler Nation today. 
Although nothing can top the satisfaction of another Steeler’s victory, especially the last two weeks, I have to admit a great deal of glee seeing T.O. blow his gasket today.
Guess it kind of sucks to have your team mocked in the end-zone as you are completely and totally dominated for 4 quarters, eh T.O.? What a :wally

I am so far past giving a shit about Dallas, it’s not even funny.
My beloved Red Raiders, on the other hand, beat West Chester in overtime after a particularly dramatic interception. We’re seeded #1 in our region and are going to the playoffs for the first time in about a decade.

All I can say is God Damn! We are firing on all cylinders, and I am completely on the Ben Rothlisberger bandwagon. The only thing that would make today even better is a Baltimore loss tonight. It’s pretty good to see the Ravens head coach talking about us in a week when they aren’t playing us. Must be feeling it a little bit, huh?
We suddenly have a new Superbowl favorite…and Airman is going to be insufferable.
Steelers are my AFC team, so pretty stoked there.
Ticket to game: $150
Beer: $7
Nachos and Brat: $10
More beer: $14
Game Program: $8
Jersey: $80
More beer: $28
Seeing T.O. have his jockstrap handed to him: Priceless!
BWAHAHAHHAAHA!
You’re not kidding. I shudder to think what he’ll be like come January.

Eh…he’ll be insufferable until January, but they’ll blow it in the AFC Championship game.
Insufferable? Moi? Surely not.
I would just like to point out that if you go back to the very first post in this thread you will be reminded of how I called this season out right from the very beginning. And with Post #55 I declared the greatness that was Ben Roethlisberger and how he was the “steal of the draft”.
I don’t think I need to say any more than that. My beloved Steelers are doing all the rest of the talking on the field.
But there are two other things. First, Weirddave. I’ll be sending you your Terrible Towel soon. And Diogenes. Wanna put a little jack on that? We’re talking about the Steelers here, not the Vikings. There will be no choke, and I’m willing to put a double sawbuck on that one. You interested?
I heard the new Steelers Polka on the radio for the first time on Friday. Steeler fever is slowly but surely setting in, and the city’s going nuts. Me, I’m crossing my fingers and hoping it lasts, but it looks like the team’s for real this time.
I’m afraid I do have one bit of bad news to report. Myron Cope, the Steeler’s crack broadcaster, left the game yesterday. He’s been broadcasting Steeler’s games for 35 years now, with an accent that used to be pure Pittsburgh, although I think it’s lost a rasp or two this year. As I told a gentleman friend yesterday, no, I don’t think they’re likely to cure his accent while he’s in the hospital. It’d be like tearing down the U.S. Steel building!

I’d just like to say that I love the Steelers for beating the Eagles.
I am now rooting for them to get to the Superbowl.
You can hear it in his voice this year, he just doesn’t sound like himself anymore. 
He’s 75 years old and been calling Steelers’ games for longer than I’ve been alive. Tough to imagine Steelers Radio without dissonant, drunk Myron yelling about something.
I Hope he’s ok.
Sugarplum, if the Steelers win the Super Bowl, I’ll wear a Steelers sweatshirt to school for the whole day. I’ll even put a Steelers flag on my car.

It was Fugazi who predicted the Steelers would fall down in the playoffs, not me. I actually think they have a chance to go to the show. Now if we get a Steelers-Vikings Suerbowl then I might just take you up on your invitation.
Actually, I was kind of a Steelers fan as a kid. That’s because Terry Bradshaw is from my hometown of Shreveport, La. He even went to the same high school as my mom and she knew him so she avidly followed his career. That meant our whole family had to root for those four Steeler Superbowls if we knew what was good for us. I also admit to having been kind of a frontrunner at the time. It was pretty easy to root for a team that won all the time. I still think that that 70’s era Steelers are best all around team in NFL history.
Having said that, Bradshaw, Swann, Stallworth, Harris, Lambert, Green, Bleier, etc. are all retired now. The current Steelers with their rookie quarterback would not find it so easy to stop the NFL’s best offense in a Steel-Purple Superbowl.
Randy Moss = the best offense in the NFL. The Vikes are merely slightly better than average when he is not in the lineup. Better hope his hammy gets well soon!
Anyone else watch Bradshaw’s interview of Roethlisberger and get the sense he’s a little threatned by the rookie? His transparent questions, while funny, appeared slightly barbed.
“Who told you that goatee looks good?” made me laugh, considering all the grief Terry got over his recent beard-like thingy. The choice he gave Ben between SuperBowl rings or a healthy family life was telling too, coming from the frequently divorced Terry.
Marino’s interview was twice the fun and was more telling of Ben. With Bradshaw, it’s always about Bradshaw.
I thought the “family” versus “superbowl” question was tacky. I’d love it if Roth started bad mouthing Bradshaw and the old guys. That halftime thing. . .I hate it when the NFL rolls out the bones for that kind of crap. I’m glad I didn’t hear anything about the Miami guys popping the corks.
Anyway, last week, I didn’t think you could say much about the Steelers. They jumped on New Enlgand early with turnovers, and from there it was easy. They had a 4-0 edge in turnovers, and still only won by 14. A turnover victory, not a dominant one.
However, Steelers looked great yesterday. Totally dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. The early lead helped again, but this time it was well-earned.
Good day in the NFL. The AFC owned the NFC going 5-2 and will probably move to 6-2 tonight.
I was glad to see KC and STL lose. I hate those fancy pants teams. TB might be for real. Some of the teams in front are fading (NYG, STL) and might be getting caught from behind (by TB, GB).
Eagles may win the NFC this year, but that defense better MAN UP before the play-offs get here.
Good bounce back for New England. They were looking at PITT on the road, STL on the road, BUFF at home, and KC on the road. With a loss yesterday, they would have reentered the land of the mortals, but they really came to play.
Fading or not, I hope his pec’s okay.
The season’s only half over. Don’t count your chickens before the Ravens get to crow in your face. We slaughtered you once, I have no doubt we’ll do it again come December. Enjoy your nice little run here in the first half of the season, it’s who’s playing last in January that counts.
