17. Indeed it is.
Pittsburgh was never known for anything other than being the largest collection of hicks outside of Cleveland.

(This is why I'm moving to Washington and not Pittsburgh, but I'll always bleed Pirate, Steeler, and Penguin black and gold)

33. The "Boston Bruins of the NFL" claim was clearly meant to imply
the Steelers were incapable of winning the "big one". My reminder of the Steeler's championships was simply to remind the author of this thread that his claim has no merit.

But then again, when you can harken back to the days of Franco Harris, Terry Bradshaw, Jack Lambert et al, well maybe it ain't so bad to live in the past!

19. Serious question: What's up with Big Ben?
He got that rib injury last week. Will he be OK for the playoffs?

22. he'LL be fine
he'LL get beat good, but he'LL pLay.

he'LL probabLy sit this week (aLong with some others) since the steeLers have nothing to pLay for.

ie: bet the house on buffaLo

23. He'll be fine...
He hasn't been ruled out for this week yet, but I doubt he plays. The rib injury has been diagnosed as a bruise. He'll be ready to go in three weeks...

31. Huh? What league are the Bruins in?
Edited on Thu Dec-30-04 01:48 PM by Dr Batsen D Belfry
:evilgrin:

Hopefully the Steelers take it all, and I get to meet Big Ben shortly thereafter, assuming he is still dating the next door neighbor's daughter. No proof of the latter yet, mind you, other than word from the neighbors. We'll have a space for his enormous SUV shovelled out just in case though, assuming we ever get any snow.

On a slightly different note, I just met Jalapeno Hannah yesterday. Turns out she is my banker B-)

35. A Bills fan talking trash. How funny is that?
What's even better is talking trash when the Steeler starters will hardly even play.

I think the best thing of this whole season has been all the trash talking coming our way...the 14-1 Steelers keep their mouths shut and let their play do the talking.

We've heard it all from the Pats, Jets, Iggles, Ratbird, Jags fans...all of them in fact...and it's the same ol' shit..
