    Typical Steeler fan thinks, stupidly, that THEY have some influence on the success of their team.  Of course, that is ignorant.  Fans are as powerless whether the team is good or if it sucks.  Winning begets devotion perhaps.  Losing begets anger, and worse, apathy.

  • The only place I've seen fans influence an outcome is yelling their asses off at a crucial point in the game when the other team has the ball and it causes them to either miscommunicate or commit a penalty.  Seattle thrives on it.

    Tour is referring to articles about those three players "working out", as in hitting the weights, in a weight room... You know, like what you were originally talking about concerning one James Harrison?

    Glad someone was keeping track... I owe ya one.

    Ahh, i get it now. Sorry tour. But still, i saw danny do some yoga and tai chi the other to help him not balloon in the offseason. And thats great, im not disparaging that. But u guys know thats not what i was getting at right? 

    Danny reported lighter IIRC. Pretty sure just doing yoga did not accomplish that.

    And more I thought about it the more I remembered Coleman organizing WR work outs. I think Kess worked with them as well. Devalve, too...

    And what you were getting at is that we have a collection of lazy-butt players just looking for paydays.

    What I am getting at is you weren't really looking... just pissed and lashing out...

    Oh i know we have some lazy butt players on the team, but even that still wasnt the point. The greater point is u never see wkt videos coming from browns players either showcasing some world class talent, work ethic or outright athleticism. Stock footage of running cone drills in the offseason so the s&c coach stays off ur butt is not impressive. Temember watts furst coyple years? Before he was the name he was...he was putting out these weight room videos showing how he was getting stronger from year to year.....video proof of it. The offseason for him was only there to work on his craft.

    Hey, a 290 lb guy jumping over houses is not unimpressive. And more to the point, it's not something he just decided to go out and do one day. He worked at it. One year he jumped over a one story next year it was a two story, he was showing his improvement. Thats my point

    I knew a guy who could throw a football over that mountain. His high school team would have won state if his coach had just put him in.
