Stinkin cheapshot steelers never change

  • don't fret, you have plenty of time to let it soak in.

    the steelers win with cheapshot players. When they can,

    they hedge their bets on dirty players from college.

    Troy did it in college, and this db did it in college.

    "A sequence of photos taken by the Commercial Appeal sports photographer extraordinaire Mark Weber (@webernewsphoto on Twitter) shows that No. 21 for Ole Miss, star cornerback Senquez Golson, delivered the blow to the head/neck area of Memphis defender Fritz Etienne (No. 15), knocking off his helmet, but the American Athletic Conference officials working the game blamed Ole Miss kickoff man Gary Wunderlich (who is also the backup placekicker) and "

    I'm guessing he thinks you had the audacity to bring up a hated rival of the Cleveland Browns on a Cleveland Browns message board instead of writing about who A&M plays.

    Don't worry though - this is the same kid that called Zombo (a President of a Browns Backers Club and one of the original guys behind starting up this board) a troll when he refused to put A&M first too.

    All is not lost though. It serves as a great reminder why another kid from A&M might want to give up alcohol when it's impairs his decision-making ability.

  • Well, what do ya know. Just like Troy Pollyfullapoopoo, their new draftee db,

    Senquez Golson, is also a player who will cheapshot an offensive player and apparently try

    to end his career.

    Steelers only win that way, too. The refs kicked the wrong player out of a game for it.

    You don't say. History sure does repeat itself a lot with that franchise.

    Pitt fans that liked to remind us of Turkey Jones double dribbling Bradshaw off the body slam on the field of play always conveniently forgot how far out of bounds Lambert needed to hit a 180 pound Brian Sipe some 3 seconds after the play was whistled dead. There was a reason David Mays was playing QB for us before Bradshaw's day and season needed to end in an eye for an eye mentality.

    I never did know when Lambert lost his 2 front teeth. That said, when we had a former dentist on the field leading us to victory - Lambert turned into a freakin church mouse. Fate has a funny way of making things right sometimes doesn't it? It would have been nice to have had officials that didn't make Jones feel like he had to take the law into his own hands; but who's kidding who?

    You've definitely got potential or I wouldn't have wasted a second on you. We've read some great posts from you pre-draft. You're smart enough to wise up where you have to. Nuff said there.

    If you can remind yourself of how the Texas Longhorns always used to make you feel - you'll get why/how we feel about the Pittsburgh Stee-roids here. The only difference is how frequently Pittsburgh has gotten away with things most other franchises never could never get away with. Meatball on spaghetti, is how Rooney got himself in a position to where the NFL Commissioner answers to him and remains obligated to him for the rest of his gig. That sucks and swallows! This shows up in suspensions shortened (Ben Rapen) or even delayed so Rooney's team can add DeAngelo Williams in the offseason to lessen the sting of losing Bell while Blount now plays for another franchise. It also shows up in deciding to stop suspending Harrison for his repeated head hunting offenses in lieu of just fining him. What this protects most is Rooney's bottom line of wins and losses while making sure only the player pays (which the street smart Rooney prolly takes care of behind closed doors anyway). That's preferential treatment that I wish more than just Cleveland fans would object to.

  • Well thanks for the compliments. I appreciate them. But for me, the notion that Texas cheated their way to the top provides me no solace. Ags have a litany of excuses out there that I just choose not to dwell on. We're going to generally be better than Texas going forward and I prefer that over living in the past. Just how I am.

    Wtf??? Suspensions for helmet to helmet were not in effect when Harrison knocked out Mo Mass and Cribbs in the same game...it was after that game when the NFL started seriously considered suspensions for that infraction. Harrison was later suspended one game for knocking out Colt McCoy.

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81b6d381/article/league-could-suspend-players-for-helmettohelmet-hits.

    Ben was never charged with rape. He was suspended 4 games for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. Only 2 other players received stiffer penalties for violating that policy, and rightfully so, their conduct was worse. Bens suspension was quite fair in comparison.

    Get a load of Chris Henrys personal conduct infractions...one involving minors.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Henry_(wide_receiver)

    Your post amounts to nothing more than sour grapes. The same browns fans that bash Ben, Lambert, Harrison, Troy or any great Steeler for playing to rough wished these players wore the orange and brown.

    Whether you like it or not, fans anywhere are all the same..you wouldn't be whining one iota if these players helped bring 6 Lombardis to the city of Cleveland.

    Steeler fans might though!

    A sour grapes accusation from the guy wearing the biggest denial blinders doesn't mean a thing.

    When OJ Simpson slit 2 white throats and didn't get convicted of murder - news cameras showed an African American female celebrating and rejoicing in the streets. Did it really mean he was innocent? That leads us to Rooney's biggest investment and the face of your franchise.

    When Ben reached rape victim #2 that America knows about - an off duty cop securing the door made that possible for him. Rooney has also had a deputy on his payroll. Do the math kid. Why would Rooney need a deputy on his payroll? Where was the terrific behavior that got his suspension reduced? Date rape drug removing memories of next victims? Is that where Bill Cosby got the idea?

    Cleveland has 8 Pro Football Championships. Nothing to be jealous of. Having said that, what NFL ownership hired 2 different guys that got their NFL potty training in Cleveland? The Rooney family.

    Speaking of the Rooney family, they hired and employed their HGH doctor for about 22 years. When people think of pro sports in Pittsburgh they think of the steroids connections to Barry Bonds and the NFL franchise that caused an SI research and summary as well as a non-fictional book called "False Glory: Steelers and Steroids." Who wrote the book? A former Steeler with a guilty conscience named Steve Courson.

    Now Rooney is in charge of getting NFL Commissioners hired after he campaigns hard for his favorite candidate. Hmmm, why would that be important moving forward?

    When did Pouncey get suspended for being arrested last August? Blount? And Bell will now miss games in 2015 now that Rooney was allowed to sign a FA RB like DeAngelo Williams. Blount plays for a different team. In all cases, guess who's bottom line got well protected? Rooney.

  • nothing against the irish BUT the rooney family is as close to the irish mafia in america that you can get. between the IRA connections, casinos and horse track dealings the stoolers are minor league horse shit when it comes to the shady dealings spun by that family.

    fuck the steelers and fuck their fans. stick a shilaleigh up yer arse and be done wit ya.

    How do you figure that you are going to generally be better than Texas going forward? I mean, you can't really know because your school did the typical SEC thing and chickened out on that rivalry. (the way Florida chickened out on it rivalry with Miami).

    Tell your AD there to stop playing with his vagina and grow a pair and reschedule what is supposed to be one of the best rivalries in the nation.

    That rivalry was, once upon a time probably a top 15 rivalry. In fact USA Today ranked the rivalries in this order:

    Army-Navy

    Ohio St. vs. Michigan

    Alabama vs. Auburn

    Oklahoma vs. Texas

    FSU vs. Miami

    Georgia vs. Florida

    Notre Dame vs. USC

    Cal vs. Stanford

    BYU vs. Utah

    Florida vs. FSU

    Michigan vs. Mich. St.

    Minnesota vs. Wisconsin

    Oklahoma vs. Nebraska (I believe now defunct)

    Texas vs. Texas A&M

    Oregon vs. Oregon St.

    You are right. It would have been nice to see how those players could have performed with the Browns...without the steroid/HGH stigma and dirty play stigma.

    It would also have been nice to have added 6 Lombardis to our current trophy case. That would have made 19 total then.

    I said that I would prefer that the SWC be reconstituted and that college football would be well served by it. I am not sure I said that TAMU would be well served. (actually, they probably would....from a competitive standpoint they probably would).

    As for which school terminated the relationship......your opinion is skewed by your A&M view of things.

    But here is what I glean from reading various articles:

    It was the A&M people who terminated the rivalry.....but that it is now the Texas people that say no......if you decided to chicken out, then why should we accept you when you beg to come back.

    So, the fact is I was right....I knew exactly what I was talking about: A&M is responsible for ducking out when they joined the SEC.

    Now A&M wants to renew the rivalry and Texas is saying "maybe...when we have a future opening in our schedule".

    Beyond all that, in my remote view it is still Texas that is the predominant football program in Texas that is just having a bit of a down turn. And I really don't have any skin in the game to be biased one way or another. My loyalty is to a different UT....or TU.
