Tomlin keeps Steelers and Browns rivalry alive

I read this the other day and almost posted it, since most Steelers fans that come on here seem to think there is no rivalry anymore between the teams. Guess those guys forgot to tell Tomlin and Hine Ward (who commented on it last season)Who says there isn't a rivalry? Yes the Steelers dominate it currently but it's still a rivalry. I know it carries additional significance for me.

Not you Snatch. But there was a boat load of you Steelers fans on here at the tail end of the season saying there was no rivalry (inlcuding misquoting Ward when he talked about the BALT rivalry before their playoff game).

I posted this because a lot on both sides have tried to dismiss our 2 teams only true rivalry. I hate when fans from both sides try to convince the ones who know better, that the Ravens are a better rival for both teams! Gimme a xxxxing break! How can a team and city that stole it's way into the league and has not even been here for 2 decades be a xxxxing rivalry!? Might be a good game, but not even close to what the Browns and Steelers mean to me, the rest of Steel nation and the Dawg Pound! At least the one's that have been around through the good times and the bad.

Don't be Retarded. There are trolls and there are people that come here for a different perspective. The trolls are here to ruffle feathers and are going to say whatever they feel will create the biggest stir. I will say that I'm tired of people calling the Steeler fan base "Front Runner Nation" because you'll be hard pressed to find a stronger fan base anywhere in professional sports. Yes every team carries it's front runners, especially those that win consistently but when it all boils down there are those that bleed the black and gold 365 days out of the year and those fans outweigh the "front runners"
I'll be the first to admit encountering MORE than my fair share of front runners in Ohio since being out here, people that have ABSOLUTELY no idea but their grandfathers, friends uncle was a Steeler fan and they used to watch games growing up..."Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight"
Either way don't degrade one of the stronger fan bases in professional sports because of the occasional ridiculous encounter you may have out here in Ohio. Go to Pittsburgh any time of the year and you are GUARANTEED to hear at least one "HERE WE GO STEELERS" chant and see plenty still wearing the gear. It's a culture and one that can't be ignored. Don't let the trolls/fair weathers ruin it for the diehard fans.....because we could just as easily rip apart the Cleveland fan base. The "well we're still here even though our team still sucks" mentality is getting a bit old. Sh.it most of the fan base hangs on out of hate for the Steelers. It's like the damn Super Bowl for some when Cleveland squares off against Pittsburgh. You're either a diehard or you aren't and there IS NO in between when it comes to our NFL teams.
I bleed the black and gold and will until they day I die.

Steeler fans are rock solid loyal fans their has in my mind never been any real difference between the loyalty that browns fans have compared to steeler fans the only thing that is different is the rooneys have always ran a top notch organization and are extremely fan friendly encouraging heavy fan participation while for the past 10 years the lerners have all but gutted the old blue collar browns while being extremely fan unfriendly and ripping the browns fans hearts out unlike the steelers that treat their fans like family the lerners treat us browns fans like red headed step children with aids and yet we still have remained loyal..randy was a newbie owner and appears to finally be on track unlike his father i believe randy really wants to win but he still needs to work on winning the fans hearts back along the way..
Since steeler fans have never had to endure the likes of the lerners for owners we can indeed say we are rightfully (or wrongfully) the greatest fans in the league and until the steeler fans have to go through the horror of an owner like the lerners have been their fanbase kind of remains untested but i would bet my left nut the steeler fans would still be as loyal as browns fans are in the event they got a bad owner because the rooneys have built a real rowdy and fan friendly empire that would survive the misfortunes of bad ownership..
Ive seen many moronic fans from all teams browns fans included and in person as well as online...i have had many die hard steeler fan friends that rival us browns fans well...they love them steelers like we love our browns..

Hmmmm...Interesting Take. VERY SAD though. You make some really valid points esp. as to How the Steeler fans are treated by the Organization....I know that I would hang with my Team in your situation as well. Thank God I don't acctually have to endure that ! But I am sure I would...
