Adding Insult to Injury

I’ve never been one to pour salt in the wound of another who is suffering…because it hurts. However, a little insult to the New England Patriots misery is not off limits. Not for a Steelers fan, not for any fan of a team not named Patriots.  

Clown…yeah, I think it’s funny too! The child is not amused.
Here’s [...]

NY Giants Super Bowl Run NOT the Toughest Ever

I came across an article today from Cold Hard Football Facts that I must address. Certainly the Giants run to the Super Bowl this year was very special and deserving of great praise. Afterall, it’s remarkably similar to the Steelers run from just 2 years ago. The article states, however, that the Giants run was [...]

Super Ad

Here’s Ben Roethlisberger’s shining moment during this year’s Super Bowl. Let’s hope he doesn’t have this much time on his hands in the coming seasons. And let’s also hope that he doesn’t become the next Peyton Manning of commercial fame.

Put aside all that you think about Tony on MNF and PTI…On the Radio Tony was [...]

Interesting “fan” report in ESPN the Magazine this week. They listed who the fans of each NFL team were rooting for in yesterday’s Super Bowl. The majority of fans from every team were pulling for the Giants. Interesting. Steelers came in second to only the Jets with 65% of our Pittsburgh fans rooting for the [...]

Congrats Plax.

Best. Super Bowl Game. Ever…maybe. Giants 17 - Patriots 14
What an amazing game. What an amazing fourth quarter. What an amazing play by Eli to escape the sack and throw to Tyree who made an amazing catch. I almost thought for a second there, that we were witnessing Ben Roethlisberger escaping the clutches of the [...]

Why I’m Rooting Against The Patriots…

…and it’s not because I think they are the incarnation of evil.
The reasons run much deeper than that. I don’t apologize for a minute that most of my reasons center around preserving the history and uniqueness of the 5 time Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Reasons:

 I was thrilled to see them not win last year because [...]
