<p>
If you have the misfortune of standing within earshot of a Pittsburgh Steelers fan during the next seven days, you will hear him say some really, really dumb stuff.</p>

<p>
Part of that can't be helped -- the Steelers are Appalachia's Team and native-born fans speak in a distinct hillbilly dialect that's almost impossible for the average American to understand. But even if you can make sense of the Pittsburghese (listen to this really long lecture by a Carnegie Mellon professor trying to explain it to what is presumably the most sophisticated group of students in western Pennsylvania, making excuses for moonshiners in the process) you're liable to hear a few really zany arguments put forth by these proudly undereducated rubes.</p>

<p>
Here are a few to watch for, along with a few points you might make in reply if you're interested in arguing with an angry hillbilly. Keep in mind these people aren't much for rationality -- they're more likely to, say, skimp on spending a few thousand bucks to extinguish an underground coal fire, instead letting it burn until they have to demolish the entire town.</p>
<p>
Hey, the Stillers ain't goink get any mur calls from the refs than yinz guys are.</p>

<p>
We can argue about this season's calls all day, but the fact is, if the Steelers win this Super Bowl, they'll get a lot of assistance from the referees, just as they did in the last two they've played. Bill Leavy, the referee who handed the game to Pittsburgh in 2005, actually apologized for his poor performance last year. Leavy says he expects to take the regrets to his grave. I bet it follows him further than that. Arizonans probably have horrible memories of the jobbing we took. If the Steelers win, they'll have help from the zebras. Sad but true.</p>

<p>
Dr. Cope would be so proud of this team -- it's classic Steelers football!</p>

<p>
First of all, legendary Steelers broadcaster Myron Cope didn't even have an honorary doctorate from any accredited university -- he appears to have earned some sort of degree from the University of Pittsburgh, which is more or less a fancy community college -- let alone an actual doctorate so no one should call him that, even in jest.</p>

<p>
Second, if he can see the team from where he is in the afterlife (they presumably have Cox cable there), he's got to be ashamed of the way Ben Roethlisberger has conducted himself over the last year.  And that's just the latest. Ben's a scumbag (who's now, suddenly, talking about God after games), and I'm sure Cope would even see it that way.</p>

<p>
It's not just that incident or that player, either. There are also rumors about Hines Ward's ill-fated lecherousness involving a porn star who mocked him -- in the post Favre/Woods era, it's nice to see a guy like Aaron Rodgers quietly dating women such as a pretty, talented Tennessee girl and a model/grapefruit heiress. That's how you're supposed to do it.</p>

<p>
So far Mike Tomlin has done a remarkable job winning with this team, but it's also become clear the team is slowly but surely developing serious character issues, despite what some people want to believe.</p>

<p>
Yinz guys give dem Stillers fans a hard time but it's all a bunch of jumbo. We're jest like any other football fans.</p>

<p>
"Jumbo" is what "Stillers" fans call bologna, and it's a staple food in Pittsburgh, served on white bread purchased from the Giant Iggle, maybe with mayonnaise if they're feeling fancy. They love that shit -- and it's why they're not like other football fans.</p>

<p>
I once called the Steelers "White Trash America's Team" and they are. There's something about the black and yellow -- perhaps it is the black and yellow itself -- that draws food stamp re-sellin', meth-cooking rednecks into the fold. Every team has a few loud, boorish fans; the "Stillers" have a few normal ones. Go into the shittiest dive bar within five miles of your house anywhere in America and start shit-talking the team -- you'll find a guy in jean shorts to argue with. Try the same thing with the Bears, the Patriots or even the Packers -- the percentages won't compare.</p>

<p>
Dem Stillers got more rangs than anyone -- that's why Pittsburgh's the best!</p>

<p>
In 1967, the NFL came up with a really great marketing gimmick and started calling its championship game the "Super Bowl." No one outside Pittsburgh considers championships any less impressive if they occurred before that date, but ask a Steelers fan about it and you'll hear that such games are "ancient history" and that "no one cares."</p>

<p>
The roots of this disconnect run to the fact that, as best I can tell, the average Steelers fan is born to a mother who is 16.2 years old, meaning it really has been like four generations since the Super Bowl started. Also, however, they're covering a deep-seeded insecurity about their pathetic past. For the first 40 years of their existence, the team was a joke. In terms of championships, they're still behind this weekend's opponent, the Packers, as well as the Bears, Giants, and Browns.</p>

<p>
What does that distinction mean? Those other teams are old money. Class acts, all of them. The Steelers are, in contrast, like the owner of a really, really successful dirtbike dealership. He's got a lot of money, but no one in polite society has much interest in socializing with him, and no one wants him moving into their neighborhood and installing a jacuzzi the size of a small golf-course pond.</p>

<p>
Just look at a guy like Toby Keith -- the Okie is a lifelong Steelers fan with an album called White Trash With Money -- and you get a pretty good picture of Steeler success. They (and the refs) deserve credit for their championships -- especially the ones in the '70s, which former Steelers players have admitted they did Mark McGwire-style, with the assistance of steroids, a drug the team is largely responsible for having introduced into the league. Should those championships therefore have a big, fat asterisk on them? You be the judge -- just extend the same opinion to the great Barry Bonds.</p>

<p>
Yoi! Hines Ward is great! Lookata how he blocks them cornerbacks! What a player!</p>

<p>
It's nice to see Hines' reputation is finally starting to match reality -- he's the NFL's dirtiest player, not some hard-nosed old-time receiver with a bright smile and a heart-warming backstory, as he was too often depicted by the media in years past.</p>

<p>
Still, he gets off a lot easier than he should. Ward is scum. Actually, scum is too nice a word for him. He's a cheap-shot artist and a cheater. And when he does actually take a lickin', he cries about it like a little girl and asks the league to suspend the guy who tackled him. Ward  fits in nicely with the Steelers and their fans.</p>

MANCHESTER CITY FC  ' THE PRIDE OF MANCHESTER !!!</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/228956</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/228956</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[OrangeHelmet-UK]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 11 Feb 2011 13:06:49 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Ok, This is going to get messy on Thu, 10 Feb 2011 22:47:04 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Go 'Lers <a href="/post/228878">said</a>:</p>They would have probably beaten ALL the teams from 1946-1949 except for the Bears, Chicago was too good back then.

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Well, looking back, I would have put my betting money on the Browns. If Vegas were setting odds knowing now what we know about these teams the Browns would have been favored every year, but yes, the closest line would have been the '46 Bears</span>.</p>

But this is why I like Pro Football more than college ball, it's only one world champion per year. I don't deny the Browns were a great team back then and they made the best of whatever league they were in but I traditionally counted the NFL champ as the only world champ from 1920 to present.</p>

<p>
For instance, the <b>Houston Oilers</b> were awesome AFL champions in 1960 and 1961 but the <b>Green Bay Packers</b> (who won NFL titles in the same years) would <i>NOT</i> have been beaten by upstart Houston.</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">I agree, but then, things were different then. The Browns had equal or superior coaching, and superior talent. As Zombo mentioned, the NFL had still banned black players, while the Browns had several on their squad</span>.</p>

<p>
But look at the bright side, when the Browns finally win the Super Bowl they will have won AAFC, NFL, and Super Bowl titles.

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">There have been 2  periods when Pro Football had shared Championships: 46-49 with the AAFC and 60-65 with the AFL. </span></p>
<p>
It would have been fine with me if the two leagues during these times would have had a playoff.  That did happen eventually with the AFL when the AFL/NFL Championship game was arranged (later to become known as The Super Bowl).</p>
<p>
It was proposed that it happen during the AAFC years. They wanted to call it the "World Series of Football".</p>
<p>
It didn't happen...why?  Because the NFL didn't want to be embarrassed to play the Browns and get whipped.</p>
<p>
The Browns were by far the superior team.  Do you think for a moment that the Browns at that time would not have slaughtered the Cardinals that won the NFL title in '47, or the Eagles who won it in '48 and '49?  It was proven how superior the Browns were when they met up with the Eagles finally.</p>
<p>
And just compare the number of Hall of Famers that the Browns had compared to those teams.</p>
<p>
The only team that might have given the Browns a run were the 1946 Bears. </p>
<p>
So, in fact, it was undoubtedly the Browns that were the "true" champions if you will of those years.</p>
<p>
But since they didn't play, every reporting source, except one, counts both titles for those years, just as they do with the later AFL titles.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/228839</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/228839</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[The Gipper]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 Feb 2011 14:50:10 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Ok, This is going to get messy on Thu, 10 Feb 2011 14:39:07 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>

A more intense rivalry with an old school-esqe team like the Cleveland Browns and not some purple uniformed franchise masquerading as a team with the same legacy as the Colts with Unitas would be more enjoyable. It would give us the same history as a Bears-Packers or Cowboys-Redskins match up.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/228801</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/228801</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Go 'Losers]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 Feb 2011 04:35:06 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Ok, This is going to get messy on Thu, 10 Feb 2011 04:28:07 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>mikeyP72 said:</p>Who cares?

<p>
We may not have 13, but 8 &gt; 6 any way you count it.  And the Steelers blew for 40 years when the competition supposedly was "sub par" and it was "Easy" to win an NFL championship.</p>

<p>
On a technicality, the Browns have 8 titles but only 4 are <i>true</i> world championships that came in the NFL, the first four were in the short lived AAFC.

I hope they can finish above the Ratbirds every year and take their rightful place, fighting the Steelers for the AFC North. Holmgren has a nose for talent and disruptive players and got rid of a great player but a locker room cancer in Rogers.  Next season we'll all witness the resurgence of the Browns and that makes for a great rivalry.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/228799</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/228799</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[SuperSteelers]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 Feb 2011 04:24:49 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Ok, This is going to get messy on Thu, 10 Feb 2011 02:11:57 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Zombo said:</p>

Its been reported that after the superbowl domestic violence skyrocketed 200% in pittsburg, and is not expected to return to normal for quite some time.</p>

With that being said, homo, did you beat your boyfriend up?</p>

No one in Pittsburgh want's your "temporary fandom" and if you want a PG atmosphere around here start talking to some of your own before you attempt to chase the Steeler faithful away with your holy pitch forks and self righteous BS.</blockquote>

<p>
Of course I read the message board. When I find something interesting or the mood strikes me,  I'll add something.  I can't get to the message boards for most of the day so often discussions have turned a corner by the time I get to them and I've missed the opportunity to add a timely remark.  I've been around message boards since they first graced cyberspace and my experiences have ranged from the sublime to the ridiculous.  This message board has a similar range of content. I keep hoping for more of the sublime but instead I've gotten Steeler fans.  But I digress.  As has been pointed out to you on numerous occasions,  this is OUR house and you have taken every conceivable opportunity along with some ridiculously obtuse opportunities to insult our fellow fans and denigrate the accomplishments of the team we love. Then you've acted shocked and surprised that we didn't like it.  That's akin to walking through the jungle with a target painted on you and then being surprised when the natives shoot arrows. Sheesh.</p>

<p>
As for being holier than thou ... well,  I am <img src="https://brownsboard.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=2a192e496db" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" alt="🙂" /></p>

Again, you read none of the posts above and just spew stuff out of your ass. You have no argument so you just rip on the Browns. I've had enough of this guy. Can we please ban him?  There is nothing that separates him from any of the other trolls that we've banned. He sucks.

lol I didn't snap and Kathy doesn't "bother me".  Her short sighted and clouded BS is nauseating because it's unbearably stupid.  I responded to her line of BS and then the mouth breather brigade tried making it about themselves.  The argument then became a issue of reading comprehension and it's now abundantly clear a few can't read.  Thanks for playing.</p>

<p>
EDIT:  I do have 4 dogs (2 Pit Bulls, a Doberman and a Chocolate lab)  I'd much rather come here and kick you and the rest of the mouth breathers around.  As far as the gay thing is concerned you guys really do need better material.  I thought that line died in middle school no? do people actually still use that one?</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/228747</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/228747</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vagitron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 09 Feb 2011 20:51:03 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Ok, This is going to get messy on Wed, 09 Feb 2011 20:37:03 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/calfoxwc" aria-label="Profile: calfoxwc">@<bdi>calfoxwc</bdi></a> <a href="/post/228738">said</a>:</p>Homo - your last post proves "obnoxious".

Once again not my point.  My post was directed at Kathy specifically.  The Holier than thou attitude is nauseating.  I don't give a sh.it about your obnoxious and mindless rants.  If I did I wouldn't post on the board.  One last time, my POST WAS DIRECTED AT KATHY.  It wasn't directed at you, pumpkin, zombo or any of the other mouth breathing morons.
