all shittburger heraldry.
all you fuckin tough guys that think that the new rules are hurting football..........
can we dress you up in a colt mccoy uniform, go out on the field and have a roid orangutan come barreling at you with his "oh he short, so he can't lower his head, he's got a low center of gravity" 25 mph with a helmet over his large inflated neptune size noggin and crack you in your mug?
yeah right. fxxkin bitches. or better yet take a punch/elbow in the face from mike tyson back in his prime?
yeah. what now faggots?
now we got the saints fairy aligning himself with the steeler queers. i guess the mayans were right. they're all butt munchers.

FYI I'm the biggest steelers fan this week because I need the 49ers to lose for the saints to get a bye
Having said that I was only agreeing that the NFL is turning into soccer. You can't hit anybody anywhere except their belly buttons and even then you have to wait for them to be lookin at you to do it
The rule changes are going to kill the NFL and everything that helped make it popular

Funny how every person on this thread who isn't losing interest and supports the stricter rules accompany their post with a bunch of crap/ whining about the Steelers. Most of the people who are losing interest and don't support how strict the league is becoming are speaking about the NFL as a whole and not just a specific team. It's very obvious that the people who can't resist talking about the Steelers in their posts have opinions that are largely shaped by the fact that the Steelers are being punished under the new rules. I hope all you people continue to carry on as you do and make it more obvious that you want NFL rules based on how it will affect the Steelers, and not how it will change football as we know it.

I was just reading a post from another Steelers fan on a different board and he asked if it is just Steelers fans that are losing interest in the new NFL or if any other teams fans feel the same? This is all stemming from the wuss league being formed by Roger Goodell. Yes, Steelers fans have bit of a bad taste in their mouth from the Harrison suspension, but the way James plays is the way we're used to seeing the Steelers play.
If the new rules Goodell is putting into place were for everyone, then we could buy into the safety aspect of it, but it only covers QB's and on a limited basis, WR's. A running back can still have his brains bashed in legally, according to NFL rule. If McCoy were a RB and not a QB James Harrison would not have been flagged and suspended . How is that fair to RB's?
The Hines Ward rule? Come on! Can't block a guy if he cant see you? This league is trying to go pansy on us and it is losing fans. At least Steelers fans. Do you guys really enjoy the games just as much as you did 10 years ago? Do you like the direction the NFL is going? I know I'm going to get the smart-ass comments and I really wouldn't want it any other way, but I would like some insightful feed back as well.

You gor it bro and the league is figuring how to put skirts on certain players while allowing them to wear jock straps, the NFL has become a money and refs and screw the real players fug em, and we go round and round, and the league more and more becomes a trasvesty saluted by brain dead fans saluting what happened again to a PLAYER harrison

Well, I got what I expected, a few fans of football see what this league is really coming to, a T.V. drama. Most though like the idea of the new NFL and I guess, in part, that is why they can change the game to suit their needs. It will not be too long before a DB has to wait until a receiver catches the ball and makes a "football move" before they can attempt a tackle and QB's aren't allowed to be hit at all. Let's just go ahead and change it to 7 on 7, like in practice, so the scores can reach into the 100's! How fun and exciting will that be?

Sorry, this isn't JUST about the Steelers. This is about guys coming to the realization every one of their FREAKING plays is available in slo-mo replay. Like Gipper pointed out, spearing's been illegal for years. Your own coach piously bleated "we've been working with James to change". Well, not working. The booger had a free shot at McCoy (and I don't give a rat if it had been any other qb in the NFL) and decided to take him out. So take a seat James, change your ways.
Turnaround is fair game- you want violence- may Ben take a similar shot along the way. Turkey Jones piledrive- right on!!! I LOVED the closeline Lynn Swann took on the sideline way back when that nearly decapitated him. I want to see more of the Haynesworth and Suh stomping on guys, it's all part of the culture of violence- let your emotions flow, Luke- come to the Dark Side. May Harrison's foot "accidentally" get stepped on by an offensive lineman, and some linebacker totally blow his knee out with a chop block. That the kind of rough and tumble football you want? Tell you what- if they went back to 60s rules with head slaps and all the other stuff that went along with it, they'd have to expand the roster to 75 players, because you'd have 30 guys on IR every year.

Not buying the 'oh the humanity' arguement. People creamed their pants when Seymour punched Big Fag in the face. There's a little Harrison in all of us when it goes our way.

That's the whole problem, it's simply not right to judge full speed hits based on supler slo-mo replay. The game isn't played at that speed, why should it be judged at that speed?Sorry, this isn't JUST about the Steelers.

This is not only the first time Harrison faced discpline from the NFL this year, but it was the first time Harrison was even flagged for a personal foul. McCoy did tuck the ball and fake the run until the last second. With that much gray area on the play it's a bit unfair to suspend Harrison. It seems obvious that Harrison change something to avoid getting in trouble like in previous years. And by just taking a quick look at his stats he doesn't seem to have much of a drop off in his play. This goes back to my point that the whole arguement about changing the rules is cenetered around hate for the Steelers for many on this board and not what is best for the league.
Ben has taken some nasty shots throughout his career and 3 years ago the hit Harrison put on McCoy wouldn't have drawn a flag. Now all the sudden the sky falls when a hit like that is made. And comparing a full speed hit to deliberately picking somebody up, intentionally putting forearms on helmets and stomping after the play doesn't really make any sense. The league has successfully balanced between keeping football physical and eliminating dangerous, cheap plays for the past 30 years. Now all the sudden Goodell is cutting into physical football and declaring it illegal. That's what I disagree with.

My point was- I wasn't using slo-mo replay. Real time, Harrison most definitely had time to change his trajectory- (Homer? I've had about 6 Bengals fans back me up on this) & if the booger had hit McCoy full bore in the chest with his shoulder pads, there'd be no complaining.
+ Harrison wouldn't have been suspended if this was a first offense. Too bad it wasn't, unless you want to call those shots on Massaquoi and Cribbs last year "accidents" too.
Finally, B##l s##t on Steeler hate, I'd go off on a goon like Harrison if he played for Kansas City, and laid a hit like that on a Miami quarterback.

Harrison could have tried to slow up more than he did, but so did McCoy. I know the league wants to make it entirely the responsibilty of the defender to avoid a certian hit, but the offensive player has to bare some type of respoinsibilty in defending themselves.
I understand Harrison has been fined before, but remember there was nothing illegal about his hit on Cribbs. Cribbs even came out after the game and said he would play the way Harrison doesw if he was a defender.
Maybe you don't base all youir opinions on like others. It seems like you are being a fair minded person about this and even though I disagree I can respect that fact that it's your honest opinion.

Roid Monk has always been a head hunter, what is the big deal? That ape came in his pants seeing that little white boy QB's head exposed to him, the drool was everywhere.
Poor little Roid Monk gotta sit a game and have his fines paid for him by the fans and team.
Taking one look at that dumb monkey's huge head explains why his momma be getting in fist fights, she is still pissed about that big ass head coming out of that thing she calls a coochie.
thats about as racist as it gets
you give fans around the league a reason to laugh at the browns and their fans for saying ignorant stuff like that

HELLO, McFly? Is anybody home? Nothing has been declared "illegal" at all that wasn't illegal 30 years ago. The rules have not really changed. Merely the enforcement of them.
This is like a guy who drives every day down a road that is 35 mph. The road has been that speed for 30 years. And every day that guy goes 52 down that 35 mph road...but, today, there happens to be a cop on that road that pulls him over and gives him a ticket. The driver protests that 'I have been traveling 52 mph down that road for years, why all of a sudden do I get a ticket". The cop says "simple, because today I was here to catch you. It was still illegal to 52 all those years, right?" "Well, yes". "So, consider yourself lucky for all those years. Today, you got what you have deserved for a very long time. Consider yourself lucky, punk"
